Default Time to get them in shape

They just mowed the hayfields up in back of my house. this is the view from my backyard and there is a whole series of connected hay fields and woodlots. The people that own the farm are patients of mine and allow me to hunt and run my dog's back there. I'll probably get them up there tomorrow morning for a little run.

There were actually a half a dozen deer and a flock of turkeys in the fields when I went up there on the gator

You're a lucky man Harold! Stuff like that just eats my heart out!

Looks like a perfect spot to run dogs. Have fun and enjoy those dogs.

Two of my setters got Lyme disease last fall before the season started while running them up there. They had seresto collars on that were just at there limit--now I change them every 6 mo.
