Not meaning to bore anyone, but we are very proud of our Heather, and her doings.Heather could be the best hunting dog a man could want.I grew up in the yadkin valley of NC, and we had what is called "field trials"I don't believe I ever saw a single over power a racoon to the death, but a pair of good dogs could.Its been around four years ago when we let Heather out to answer natures call, and some one was on the phone with me, and DW was doing her regular signals that Heather wasn't comming back in.Finally got free from the phone, and Heather was on her way in, and you could tell she was panting hard.I didn't make any thing of it, until I mowed the next morning.When I did the back portion of the yard(last), I saw a dead racoon, and it was huge.An old boar, that could whip two ordanary dogs.I took it to make sure it didn't have rabbies, and weight it.Twenty six pounds, and the guy at the health dept said, "no one dog could have killed that one, it had to have been a pack". I can't prove my dog did it alone, but she does every thing herself, and is not a packer.Heather will turn fourteen Yrs.old march 22.This pic is us on her thirteenth BD. Mike
