Was wondering if you are still around. Have not heard from you in a while. How is the Plott gyp doing.

She (Candy), the one we talked about you starting, is ready to DO something in the coondog department! And the one I have from Christina & Jeff Farthing (Nipper) is hell on wheels - ready to tackle anything & everything. She has a tug that she carries everywhere & a super attitude. Wish you lived closer so we could do some tracking with her. The Sheriff's Dept. could sure use her. I just got a new B&T male, 15 mos. old. He's been hunted, (5 mos.) but his former owner says he's more of a tree dog than a track dog & that's how he ended up in MY kennel. I've got him behaving like a show dog (gaiting & on the bench) but I need to take him to the woods to see if he'll hunt At ALL. But I'm going to wait a little longer for him to bond with me. I've only had him for 6 days.

Candy is ready to go to the woods. The weather is now decent. You'll be getting something in the mail from me regarding her - it's a GOOD thing. Spice, the one you retrieved from the guy who didn't socialize her is MUCH better and more confident but she was running up & down in the kennel like a caged wild animal so she's now outside in a pen (100' X 50') with her sister & a B&T gyp & she's playing with them happily. Both gyps are solid muscle, happy & friendly. Spice gaits very well & stands on the bench like a pro - until someone approaches the bench. I don't know if I'll EVER be able to show her because of this - but time will tell. She's still a pup in many ways. I'd EVENTUALLY like to breed Spice to GR CH Skyplott Teddybear, a grandson of Steve Fielder's Roper dog. Candy will be shown as soon as I get her paperwork from the other registry completed. She looks GREAT on the bench & I hope she'll be a coondog too. Will send you pics soon.
