Well Its Summer NOW !!
The 11 month old Litter of "Marlow X Blu" Are doing great and seem to have a Very High % of Turn out !!!!
Marlow is a Pure AKC Bloodhound and Blu being a Pure UKC English Coonhound out of "Buckley Creek Timber and Goofy"
The Litter is EveryWhere !!! One is working for a Sherriff's Dept in Ok. - 2 are in texas with Blaine - One is just getting Started in UT. on Coon and Mountain Lion - 2 are near Richmond with their Sire Blu and Chuck & Family - 1 Just went to W.Va. and is getting on with Treeing Coon .. 1 Just Arrived in Kenya Africa to Start Work their !!!
Here the latest about "Anna" That was Trained in Co. by Linda Porter of The K9 Training Acad.. and Was personaly flown to Africa by Linda for con't training with her new Handlers..
Anna the 11 month old Grand pup to Timber (Out of Blu) is now in "Mara" Kenya and will be starting work !!!
As you will read in this note from Linda Porter (Anna's Trainer in the US) Anna's Job is a Tough One in the some of the Dryest Tracking in the World and her Pray is the Most Dangerous !!! At least her handles will be carring AK's !!
From Linda Porter in Mara Keyna:
Hi everybody,
I have finally reached the Mara with the dog (Anna) and we are in one piece. As usual it is stunning. I will never tire of this place. Last night we dropped the dog (Anna) off at the outpost and this morning drove back to see the handlers and check on her. She seems to be adapting well. We will start tracking tomorrow and see how it goes.
The migration is in full swing and the wildebeest are everywhere. Lots of dead ones in the river. A casualty of drowning trying to cross. To many for the crocs to eat them all. I am staying in Serena camp for now with my friends Asuka and Brian until John and Coby arrive.
There was a major incident just before my arrival at one of the campsites on Monday where there was an attack on 15 tourist staying at the river camp. 3 were shot and one was killed.
The dog was able to track the bandits for 30 kilometers all night, (that's no BS) recovering tons of stolen evidence and coming within .5 kilometers of running them down. One has been arrested and confessed everything. The others have fled to Tanzania and authorities there are attempting to round them up. (no worries it is quit safe here were I am) The dog played a huge role in assisting in the capture of these men quickly.
Other than that all is well and beautiful and peaceful here. There is a referendum vote coming up next week but we expect
everything will stay quite in the Mara. We will be starting training tomorrow and have plans to attend a Masi warrior graduation on the escarpment on the 10th or 12th that should be quit interesting.
I will get some pictures and send them when I can get them up on the internet.
John, the playing cards were a huge hit with all the rangers. I think they were more excited about that than the dog. LOL.... They were so happy to have them and are anxiously awaiting the Volly ball and checkerboard. They are all asking about you and wondering when you are coming.
Well thats it for now. Not to exciting yet but Ive only been here for one day. I'm just stting on the tent poarch with a Masi slingshot I bought in Nairobi and practicing my aim on some baboons that are trying to raid my tent. Hows that for entertainment. Better than TV...
PS John and Coby, we may have some things we need you to bring. We will make a list. LOL : )
I will have internet steady for about 2 more weeks so feel free to write me.....
Me
(Their Are ALOT of Fokes Watching the Progress Of this Pup) !!!!!!!
