It is my favorite saddle. I have and have had tuckers but I prefer the Dixieland Gaited Saddle. A bit heavier than a tucke...

I believe a drawing will take place tonight for the stake that begins in the morning. My dog Abbie will be there with Dennis Brath. Now with that said he will not be running any of the dogs in his string if the weather is to hot.

It doesn't matter how good they roll unless they handle, Bill. That goes back to their breeding. She has all the attributes of her daddy Bandit....very smart and wants to please. I've really been missing her here at home but I realize for her to meet her full potential we need to leave her with Den...

I did hear that some lame broken down dog named Bandaid or something along those lines fell in love with a porqupine and was later found spooning with said lover.

Ezzy, I think what Justin is alluding to is at some of the Brit Ft's that are open to APB, and have Brit people judging the senior stakes, you sometimes see the best Brit getting the nod...over the best dog. It is a not so veiled effort to "protect" the major from going to a non-Brit. It may not be...

I am wondering who is in Ardmore for the Lone Star and Quail Championship?
It is nice to get updates for those of us frozen in up north.

We are all completely in awe of this great accomplishment by Abbie. I cannot thank Dennis and Par Waresk, who scouted, enough for getting her around. Dennis has been a great friend of ours and I am really excited for him. I wish we could have been there but with the co-owners football schedule we ju...

Spoke with Dennis this morning and he won the AA with Penny. Our Abbie had a nice race found her standing after 30+ minutes of looking. No bird. It probably died from boredom waiting for the handler to flush it. :mrgreen: Weather is good today with no wind but it is early. OSD will most likely start...

What are the AA placements. I am assuming that Abbie did not place as I have not heard from Dennis.

Hey Clark....EGR cooler or injector issues? Oil Cooler plug caused the EGR to leak.

As the guy who lifted her out of the bed of the truck when she got into camp, I can confirm that she was "a bit plump". Since I like Clark, I'll leave it at that.

Hey John,

I spoke with Dennis B. a short while ago and he is headed home as well. We are skipping the Great Plains. Everyone is fed up with the weather and don't want to endanger anyone or any critters. Saves me some money by not having to haul my horses 600+ miles each way.
