Pete's Pups
 

The little tramp from the next farm over took advantage of Pete a couple months ago and now the poor guy is being hit up for child support.

well - looks like it would be hard for him to deny paternity

:rotf:

Interesting looking Mama! I'll bet you get some good hunters out of the litter!!

Tell Pete to pay up.:) It takes two to tango:whistle:

I suggest you send a half dozen training quail over there so they can be tested for "birdiness" in a few weeks.

Boy I am glad (for once you live so far away) I love a black en white pointer. Is Pete related to Ringo.

yup don't think you'll need to do dna testing.

Pete is a VERY fine looken dog. Mom a cow dog?

Pete's distantly related to Ringo; they both go back to Snakefoot to one degree or other. The little girl is really a nice dog. The present caretaker said she was a "dumped" dog, calls her an Amish dog. Looks to me like a squirrel dog, sort of a moutain fiest with stand up ears.

Calvin, Pete doesn't always go around with his tounge hanging out like that. It was cropped from a pic of a year ago when Archie was a pain-in-the-ass squirt pestering Pete. If it wasn't so easy for Pete to out run him at the time, the kid could have been lunch. Today is a different story; Archie out weighs him by about 15 pounds and is just as fast. They're now like a couple of brothers, sometimes squabbling, but mostly cooperating. they hunt pretty well together.

Update
 

Pups are doing pretty well. Lost one so we're down to 7. A week or so ago Mama moved them out of the hay and into a den under an old swamp oak. I guess there were too many people (kids) sneaking a look between the bales to suit her. I've seen them in the new den but when I was going to stick the camera down the hole, she wasn't having any of that at that time.

She might be part badger denning under the roots of a tree like that...
