Ya'll know how I hate to brag on my dogs

[AmarilloMike]

but I know many of you have a keen interest in them and I endeavour to keep you informed. Besides that within Texas it is only considered bragging if it is not true.

My Molly won a first in a field trial in Amarillo yestersday. And she won a first in Enid, Oklhahoma two weekends ago. I have three champions in my house now; Molly, Red, and Belle.

We also killed four rattlesnakes, one handler killed one Friday evening while training his dogs. Another killed one Saturday morning during a brace, and my brace-mate killed two yesteray afternoon during our brace. No handlers or dogs got bit but there were a bunch of very nervous armed men roaming the fields I can tell you.

The second picture was taken two weekends ago in Oklahoma when Molly won the trial that made her a champion.

I carried my 1905 VH12 with 30" barrels, choked cylinder and 20, eight pounds and a very handy sling.

Full disclosure: I entered my dogs into four trials, two on Saturday and two on Sunday. Molly won one of the trials on Sunday.

Best,

Mike
