Working with Paisley on bed bug detection! The indication is now very strong and looking awesome!

Folks have been discussing the meaning of life for generations. I think it might have a lot to do with following a good dog through the field!

As students of animal behavior and dog training, it is always a wonderful exercise to work with other species. In my case, being a falconer, raptors are almost equally as interesting as canines, albeit quite different. Raptors think completely differently, but they respond to training very similar to the way dogs do!

The inspiration that many of our great outdoor writers have taken from setters pointing grouse is easy for me to understand. For me the image of a setter on point on a southern Appalachian hillside with the king of gamebirds holding tight in front is one of the most amazing sights the Good Lord has ever put in front of me. Pictured is my Daisy Mae Bondhu pointing an Eastern Kentucky grouse.

All hunting dogs put a big smile on my face, but there is something raw, primal and beautiful about the voice of a hound echoing out of a holler on a crisp morning that both sends shivers down your spine and fills your heart with joy and expectation. It’s a sound that moves you, the same as any music. Picture is Ryan Elson’s Ole Derty Beagle “Odie”

heart of a dog never ceases to amaze me. This dog has every definition of the word “heart”. In the field, he is unstoppable, unfaltering, and steadfast in his search, his point, and his retrieve. He also fought hard as a young puppy to survive the deadly parvovirus, and won! Today he showed me his other side, as I am laid up with Covid again, he came and rested his head in my lap and just sat with me for a long while, just happy to share space and get a few gentle strokes on the head. It’s dogs like this who make life with dogs as special as it is.

There is something about walking in on a point that is just magical. It’s like, for a moment, time stands completely still and you feel completely in tune with everything around you. The dog, the bird, and the country around you, for one brief second, all line up to create this scene of beauty and tranquility amidst the adventure of a day afield.

Nothing like a solid point on wild birds!

Ole Derty Beagle “Odie” owned by Ryan Elson got his 3rd cast win in UKC Hunting Beagle over the weekend with me handling! I am a houndsman at heart as much as I am a pointing dog enthusiast.
