My summer plans include a long list of rivers that need exploring. Ever since the first hoomans arrived here in the New World in the 1400s, there have been roamers among the crowds. The history books are full of tales of pioneers like Daniel Boone, John Bozeman, Lewis...
I point, the bird goes into the air, the hunter shoots — and the hunter misses. I love to point birds, and whether I raise a front or rear leg and point with my nose and a prolonged fixed stare, the obvious result is I point. For you hoomans who think dogs must point...
It’s a fact of life: dog’s like to fetch. While hoomans often see fetching as a boring game, for dogs running and grabbing goes back, way back, to that wolf era when we had to run down and grab animals, and then pull them down to the ground and begin eating them. It’s...
The backyard is being invaded by deer! Normally life at home is peaceful and I can lie on the couch and watch TV. I like hunting shows, especially any shows that put pheasants in the air or ducks on the ground. But lately I have to sit by the backdoor and play the...
I’m Not a Mule The other day I was doing something I really like to do — shopping. In fact I was in a store, and with Mike’s help, trying on backpacks so I can be ready for the summer ahead and some backpacking trips. Then I spotted her — a lady who was staring at me....

Bug bites hurt, and then those bites often itch, so I hate bugs. Summer is on the horizon and you need to start making plans now for where you can take your dog camping. While I truly enjoy the great outdoors and camping, there is a place I draw the line — bugs!...
When I’m not hunting, sleeping or eating treats, I dig holes, I chew bones and dig more holes to bury the bones I don’t want to eat just yet. Well, in case you have never been around a dog, there are three important things all dogs do — chew bones, dig...
OK, I like stuff. Guess that’s why I have five coats, some pajamas, nearly 100 dog toys, 20 bags of treats, fine porcelain dog bowls and about $1,000 worth of dog beds. Plus there’s a first aid kit and travel bag complete with food, water and the ever important...
Today, class, we learn how to pronounce “Weimaraner.” I have written numerous times about traveling about and meeting folks, and unfortunately, today I’m here to vent a little about all the hoomans who cannot pronounce the word “Weimaraner,” my...
