For me today was pretty cool because we started one of the nine 'K' puppies - Kalev. He was extremely happy to be out there hunting with the 'big dogs', and was so excited to get his little nose down to the ground and see what everyone was up to. It was a great day for smelling fox for the little guy and he was able to keep up with the best of them. I was really proud of him. Now he just need to learn to stay with MFH Jimmy and not think I'm going to pick him up and take him with me. He's no longer a puppy I'm told.

We headed into the deep woods at the Funnel Lake meet and ran a fox up and down the banks and cliffs, and streams and fields. We put three to ground in what we started to call the fox hotel because they all went into the same area of cliff dwelling fox holes.

Good day, and I'm sure one tired puppy!
