Looks like you guys had a great hunting season! I missed this years. My bloodhound was diagnosed with T-cell Lymphoma in July and was too sick to do much of anything for a long while. She underwent chemo and is going great now. Hopefully I'll have her for a few more years. Best dog I ever had.

Sorry to hear about your dog,Jim.Hope all continues to go well for her. |
Glad to hear you are having such a good season, 28. Thanks for the well wishes, She seems to be doing OK so far. Hopefully I will have her for a few more years.

Yes ,hope all continues to go well for your dog,Jim.
Snow storm here yesterday.Out this afternoon for a hunt.Snow about half way to the knee in the woods.Hard walking,but the 28 gauge Ithaca Model 37 and I came home with a partridge and a rabbit. |
Sadly her cancer is back, 28, but we aren't licked yet. There is another course of treatment we are going to try. We found a lesion on her back and had it biopsied, which was a good catch as that was the only evidence it returned, she is normal in every other way. We lost our 13 year old bluetick a little while ago so it's been tough around here to say the least. --Jim

Very sorry to hear the cancer is back,Jim.Hopefully you caught it early ,so the treatment will work.So much of that darn stuff around,in animals and humans.

Glad to hear you are still getting rabbits.
Thanks for the well wishes, 28. I really appreciate it. --Jim

The dogs and cats that live with us are much more than pets,they are part of the family.When they are not well, we feel the hurt as well.

You said it, Pal. I like my dogs better than I like most people. --Jim

Out this afternoon and bagged three rabbits with the 28 gauge Ithaca Model 37.Lots of rain and mild temperatures last night, took off most all the snow we had.Made the white rabbits stand out badly against the almost bare ground.
