Buckley Mountain Feist pup

Got this message and Pics from Robert Amonett of Pascagoula, Mississippi on my cell phone today. Looks like the Dot Bigun cross has done it again. He says this pup at 17 weeks Bear is already treeing squirrel and coons like crazy. This is his message
"This is Bear from Buckley. They just can't get away from him. He is the best in the history of the world".
LOL and now what about that for a pup report? This pup is a litter mate to Pop Corn Sutten..

We had Brian Kelly over back in the summer doing some carpentry work for us and he told me he would love to go squirrel hunting with a dog. I told him I would take him this season. Well according to him he's hooked. First trip and he's wanting to buy a dog. We had a decent hunt until I got the Rhino stuck in the creek and Brian had to wade water to his knees to hook up the winch up. He got wet and soon started getting cold so I cut the hunt short and promised I would take him again soon.
Not sure how many trees we had but it was a bunch. Should have gotten out 2 man limit but that's another chapter in the book. We did end up getting 6 squacks and a grouse.

My old Buddy Kevin Conley came by this morning for a little Pr ick eared Feist hunting. We loaded up Princess, Taz , Brownie and two pups Hedi and Knite Rider and hit the muddy trail. Had a great time and fellow ship hunting with Kevin again. Also had some fair dog work but Princess ended up with the most on the tail gate she she got the pic honors. Dogs treed several more dens and we saw 5 more we never got.

I enjoy getting this kind of report back from our pups and to hear they are early starters putting meat on the ground is just a bib Plus. Dusty is a Aqua X Taz pup.

Took Dusty out in the Wayne National Forest a few days ago. This is were I planned on hunting her most, but she is still getting car sick. Even after being a little sick, she really did well. We were out 3 hours, treed 7, 2 timbered to dens, I let 2 get away, and shot 3. She needs to work on her tailgate pose, but she is hunting well for 6 months

I have been wanting to shoot a few fox squacks to my dogs so we decided to make a trip N & W of here to Magoffin county. The farm we hunted always offered fox squirrels but not today. Treed 15 times and saw 11 of them ending up with a fair tailgate but all greys.

Dog power was bad down today. I loaded up Brownie, Taz and Princess. This was the 1st time I have had Princess out since coming out of heat. Good thing I let he come too. Old Brownie was in heat. I wanted to leave her in the dog box in the back of the truck but was afraid when I come back she may be gone. So I let her ride in the pet taxi. Taz refused to hunt. He stayed right behind the Rhino ever step so I loaded his butt in another pet taxi and just hunted Princess. Well that until she ripped a toe nail in 1/2 and came up lame on us.

Another pup report today from the last Aqua X Taz litter from Bill in Wv.. This makes 4 out of this litter that are aleady treeing their own squirrel and2 from this litter today reporting in with the meat.
(Well, Dusty (Aqua x Taz) finally got fur on the ground.  At exactly 6 months old.  She has probably treed a dozen over the last couple of months, but due to leaves, trees with holes, and poor shooting, this was the first we got on the ground.  We went on a couple hour hunt in the morning and only turned up one, and it went into a leaf nest.  I planned to work around the house and go again in the evening.  Dusty was out on her own, when I heard her treeing over the hill.  I grabbed the gun and went to back her up.  She had the meat, and I shot it out to her.  It still had some life in it, and bit her on the nose.  Not too bad, just enough to really make her mad.  She is tuning out to be a great dog)
