I gotta brag on the new pup, Shelby. She turns 12 weeks today and is doing absolutely awesome. She has several times sight chased bunnies and scent trailed right to the bunny several more times. Just this weekend she opened up ( mini bays that will develop into full fledged bays ) on both the scent trail and in a sight chase for the first time. At 11 weeks old that is really fast. She is doing well with all her other training and I even think Sophie is starting to come around.
However, she is wearing me out. SO MUCH energy followed by a total and complete crash. She'll go like crazy and then sleep like the dead. She's a chewing machine. and requires constant supervision if she is not sleeping, in her kennel, or tied up outside. Even then I feel like I'm always keeping one eye on her.
It's all worth it though. Watching her grow and develop as a hunting dog and as a house pet has been really cool. Seems like she learns something new everyday. I can't wait until fall and until she's ready for hunting season.
