I had three deer cross the back yard this morning. I took him out there within five minutes and when he got a nose full and started going where they went I lit him up. Took him to woods couple hours later. Started out hunting good but no rabbits. Next I know he's gone. Grr. I have a bell on him to keep tabs and couldn't hear a thing. Finally opened up behind neighbors next door but don't know on what. Had to get him out of there.

The smallest one I have in the kennel now, maybe 11", absolutely runs the show. No one messes with her. Seen her take on three brittany's at the same time and scattered them like the quail they were looking for. Warned the guy but he wouldn't listen.

I had a female that stood about 9" that was the worst fighter we ever owned. She was great with kids though, very loving and fiercely protective.

I hope to still make it in the morning with you all. May bring a gun, but still just think it'd be neat to see the dogs work since I've never saw that before. Hopefully the rabbits are cooperative and a few go home with the fellas. If I got the count right I'd be number 6, but if I'm not there don't worry about it. We just got an accepted offer on some land in Brown County so depending on the time we need to do paperwork will depend on whether or not I'll be able to make it.

Jon Snow and Mossberg 500, its Christmas eve. You guys going to be able to sleep tonite? We got our Christmas tree this evening (instead of going hunting), got it up, and decorated. This might be better than Christmas Eve - I get to go to bed and not stay up until 4:00 AM wrapping presents!

Them dogs okay to ride in the dog box or am I going to have to make them a nice cushy bed in the warm cab of the truck? Wife is super excited to have some more babies to spoil. See you later on today.

Wasn't worth taking no pictures. No rabbits and they're all ugly anyway.
