Will be breeding soon hopefully to a coon dog walker bitch she should be coming in soon. Going on old standby saying of Harold Hollingsworth of Marshal and Scott Green: Breed a coon dog to a coon dog and don't worry what papers say. Worked Good For R. Scott Green and Moo Moo 1/2 sister Seven and the people that had pups.
Mister Money Maker is direct off Mister Jack all grand pedigree, not that it matters. I am a believer in good breeding if you see it in the field yourself or know people you can trust. Moo Moo has done well in whatever he has been entered in and is a swim dog deluxe tree dog and won the only field trial he was put in. As anybody that has seen him swim he comes treeing for 20 feet! Boys and I are excited about getting a pup or 2 out of him.

Thanks Rex and TD. I am like a little kid in a candy store. I got my dog I finally wanted all my life. I have had good dogs in the past but not good enough to go to competition hunting. It is 28 degrees here this morning. Next week 60's and 70's. I will be waiting for those to come. You all have a great day.

We plan on it had several out of town people and lots of kids last year.
We give participant ribbons to all kids and winning ribbons for winners usually. May not always be able to do so depends on funds nothing is cheap anymore. Tony wife donated a nice wooden carving last year that brought $100 when raffled off then auctioned off. We have a lot of visitors to watch and that is good also. Our area is mowed and a nice pond. Thanks to all that helped make it that way.
Also thanks to people that traveled to come swim. These will be all UKC events. If you have non registered dogs we can do something after UKC events, practices ect.
