Uphilldoc from the stories you have written up on it must be a buzz hunting quarry of that size and with dog of your own, the adrenaline from the hunt must be enough to top any one with a dodgy heart. When i'm next over i'd love to come hunt some bears even see Kye do his war dance for a bear with his spear. Would love to see a dog on a bobcat they good sport or like a giant ditch cougar ?
Also Uphilldoc how do you find grace for stamina, running with them hounds across that sorta terrain must be hard going.
