The Bloody Side of Hunting

The Bloody Side of Hunting

For me, this hunting season is becoming the season of cuts. If you think this piece will be about dead animals, read something else. The recent blood in hunting has been mine. From thorns to sharp rocks to barbed-wire fences, there are things in the hunting world that...
Hunting is Like Work

Hunting is Like Work

I may need to charge overtime. Treats and a half, Mike! I wrote recently that fishing is like work, and I’m here to tell you that hunting is like real work. I have to climb mountains, trek down valleys, wade or swim across rivers and struggle and muscle my way through...
Report from the Field

Report from the Field

Hunting season is here! Time to find birds! These are the days all hunting dogs live for. Hunting season is underway and once that calendar rolled over and spotted September on the exposed page, I dashed to the truck and dove in. My days now are spent sniffing about...
The Price Per Pound

The Price Per Pound

The other day I was eating a pheasant breast Mike had grilled when he said, “Cameron, slow down gobbling on that thing, it is very expensive per pound.” Well, how dare him tell me how to eat. I descended from wolves and know about eating meat of all types. Now I was...
Dog Names

Dog Names

Well, there are now lists for everything — including popular dog names. I was surfing the web and looking for more stuff to order when a list popped up — the Most Popular Dog Names. I had to look — and could not find Cameron anywhere. Who made this list? On the list I...
Fishing is Like Work!

Fishing is Like Work!

On the offseason I get to fish — a lot. But fishing (not necessarily catching) with Mike sure feels like work! Well, it has been a long hot summer of tagging along as Mike fishes. Now, I did not say he was catching — just fishing, har har! On the downside of these...

We Weims Can Run

Weimaraners can run at speeds up to 35 MPH. I was again surfing the web the other day — hey, I’m down to only 20 boxes of dog treats, time to reorder — and saw a dog speed report. According to the report, Weimaraners can run at speeds up to 35 MPH. We Weims can run!...
Naming Names

Naming Names

So I wondered do other governors go hunting? Yes, I found a list and now I’m naming names. I like hanging out with other celebrities — like me — and important folks. Governors are on my short list, so I was again surfing the web to the other day in search of treats...
Earning My Keep

Earning My Keep

Cameron the Weim — Hat Retriever Extraordinaire! I have written many times that I like hunting, pointing and retrieving birds. It’s the life of a top sporting dog — me. Now comes this new duty — hat retrieving. The other day Mike and I were at a high country lake —...
Meeting People Is My Passion

Meeting People Is My Passion

I am a people person — or dog that likes to meet hoomans. If I see someone on the road, it’s time to quickly move over and greet them. They could have treats, or bacon in their pockets. Yeah, I understand when some hoomans see a 90-pound dog with bright yellow eyes...
