I responded to your post about dogs and told you to get a pup trainer and a pup. This is an e-mail I just recieved from the guy in New Mex that I sold a really good dog to. This dog has a hurt shoulder and I sold him for $600. Not bad for a plott some would say.
"I was just looking at your website and thought I would write about Dan. To make a long story short he and my female treed a large lion down in the nastiest canyon possible. (on a Thursday afternoon) The weather was not in my favor. Huge cliffs didn't help either.My female came off the tree after a few hours. Dan on the other hand stayed 32 hrs that I know of. I worked graveyard shift and then drove back to try to get down to him.I did that a couple times never reaching him.Some friends went to get him and were afraid to try to go down the canyon. Sunday night he left the tree for whatever reason. Monday I located him 6 miles away, I couldn't get to him because I had to get to work.Tuesday He was in the same spot with a tree indicator. When I drove to the top of the mountain I found that he had went down in the bottom to the road where I had passed. I cant blame him for leaving after all that he had been through.I will never know what was in the second tree, but I did see the tracks of the lion on the first tree. I just wanted to say that I appreciate you selling him to me, I'm very pleased with him.Take it easy, David"
I know of dogs like this that get sold every year. They have been through the ringer and now are old or hurt. They won't keep up with a super pack so are sold cheap. This guy lives in SW New Mex and is getting some great pup training done. Comepare this story to the idiot (insert me and every other goof who bought 10, $500 started dogs)who spent his 1st 3 years of hunting chasing dogs who were chasing elk, deer, cars, porcupine, coyotes and antelope.
I think Waycool bought a killer dog and was catching bears in his 1st year. He might not fully appreciate how special that is but I do, Dawg does, Border does, Stan does.......well you get the point.
As for all you sucker punchers, kiss my @$$ I'm on outage and don't have time or inclination to reply. Good Ol Ed will return sometime next month when my hours are shortened and the crappie quit biting.
