Great pictures and thanks for sharing. I haven't seen a quail in ten or so years. Good luck on hunting.

The best quail dog I ever had was half Greyhound and half Pit Bull (Really)
Sometimes she got more than me.
She was totally self taught.
After I brought down two, she came over and sniffed the birds.
Within a few minutes she brought me one still alive.
By the end of the day she had caught several.
Nothing better then fresh quail and wild rice...

It took alot of work to get "Dixie" to stop doing that.... Hunting for themselfs makes it very hard to hunt in my neck of the woods. (high desert)...    Need to get them to stop and point... and hunt for you...

We have a BUNCH of Boss Hogs running free AND multiplying here in South Florida. Funny thing is when it gets real cold they just keel over.

We used to have English pointers and a few English setters. Quail has all but dissappeared in central Alabama. The piss ants and coyotes give them no chance when they hatch off. Pen raised quail make for a boring hunt. Now were back on the squirrels.

My hunting partner got into a bunch of rat poison tonight...    Caught her eating it... Spent next 2 hours inducing vomiting to clear her system...    Administered large doses of activated charcoal...

The active ingredient was a nervous system drug (brain swelling).   Lethal dose for dog my weight is 48mg of the active ingredient...  From my calculations with my gram scale... She ingested between 300-500 mg.    Yea not good..

Wife is currently driving her to animal ER...

But from what I read on this drug...  I'm screwed

hows your dog motorrad? if you can catch them in the act, you have a good chance of saving them.
I lost 2 of my 3 dogs recently one to a powerline cherry picker ( chased a wallaby under the wheels), and the other to a aussie buffalo.
starting a pack rebuild just got a female rhodesian ridgeback pup.

will be back in buisiness..

Figured I would throw one up of our boy 'Benz'. German Wirehaired Pointer. Hunt fur or feather, swim like fish, hunt until they drop. Motorrad, I see that side by side! Duel triggers too! Man after my own heart! Hope the link is still good!

Well, squirrel season is gone for another year. We had a good last month though. 71 in 5 hunts for Feb.
I love the huntin' dogs. That pic. of Motorrads bird dog brings back good memories.

Got a recipe for them?
Here is what I got hooked on for popping little critters. PCP Airgun. 28 grain pellet at around 1000 fps. Lighter pellets much faster. 6-24 50mm illuminated reticle scope. 3000 psi in the tube. Modulator. Has a little magazine that holds 8+ rounds depending on the pellet length. Very accurate. (http://i59.tinypic.com/hsue55.jpg)

Boil for about 1hr , de-bone, use squirrel instead of chicken when making dumplings.
Thats alot of gun for squirrel. I have a tech-force 87 in .22cal and a RWS 45 in .177.

I have an RWS in .177 I mounted the scope on the barrel block to make it a scout rifle and eliminate the break barrel issues. Took a lot of critters with it but the PCP hammers them and larger critters. I usually just pan fry squirrels and eat  :-P but have four saved up to brine and smoke to try it.

Pan fry in extra virgin olive oil, a dash of season salt, serve with salad, wild rice, and indigo hills pinot noir...

Or pan fry and growl while you are stripping the meat off of the bones with your teeth! :-D

Block I installed on the RWS with a Leupold 4X pistol extended eye relief scope. works good.
