he don't need it... just a tune up,,,plugs, wires, rotor cap,air filter, oil change,,, lol lol.. good old fashion huntin to bring him back to where he once was....

Jimmy 5-6 is what she is used to... Don't let her bark alot she will stress her vocal cords like she did last year...and if she has to come back to my place I don't want her bordom barking the neighbor will go ballistic.....

Just some background info. on ole Duke's ancestors... He is 75% Bragg blooded, 25% Vaughn blooded... His sire was 100% Bragg his dam 50% Bragg 50 % Vaughn... He shows W.V. Blue VI, several times,Kelly's ole Queen at least 4 times.He shows Vaughn's Buck III and Mack III's Lou in the 3rd gen. This old blood is getting more scarce everyday... I'm just happy to have a piece of it....

Guess he's good on snow! Is he a water champ too? They sure look like great paddles.

Yeah ole Duke can swim... Flooded bad here on 9/17/04 thanks to Ivan.... He and Sissy had to swim out of the yard behind me to safety. Once we repair our damage his tune up will continue... He is a grand ol boy !!! Continued to research this splitnose stuff. seems it traces back to the Galloway hounds of Tennessee and Alabama and to hounds owned by Bluetick Bill Harshman..in the 30's, 40's and 50's..

He was the last of it.. His brother Parker, is gone now too. Anything that shows the cross he was from is back at least 3 generations.
