LoLo and BD expecting, Kennel Improvements

Bred LoLo to my Staghound, due the 26 october. I've been updating the kennels the past week putting Plastic Pallets up off the ground and installing their housing to get them off the concrete. Easier to wash down and provides a cool place to lay in the summer. Also ran some PVC through the gates to make a feed chute so I don't need to open the gate to feed. I will be attaching rubber feed bowls to the floor under the chute.

OVERVIEW

I started a few years back with two Deutsch Jagdterriers, Snatcher and Tugger. Snatch is still with me Tug was killed by a large Boar sometime ago when he was about 1 year old. I then acquired two Plott Hounds from Whitedeer Kennels in Fredericksburg Texas. Campo is still with me and Toes was sold this year to a hunter in South Alabama. Next came my first two female Airedales, Pearl and LoLo from Seth Lawson up in Virginia. I then came by another Airedale male from Donnie Wright from Kentucky. All three are still with me and maturing well all around 2 year old now. I acquired another Whitedeer Plott, Blacky from a friend in Mississippi. I've raised 1 litter with Blacky, a cross with Snatch, (Jagdterrier). Along the way a friend that hunts a lot of Hole Dogs up in Illinois came down to hunt and brought me a great Staghound, (Big Dog) BD for short who is around 2 1/2 now. I now own 4 more Jagds that came from Richard McCorkle down in Georgia including the father of Tug and Snatch, their mother went to Pat Larkin in Bude Mississippi for his breeding program. I need to mention another Jagd that was killed hunting, The Sheik, shaker I called him, one tuff little gritty boy. I got The Sheik from Jay Wholeb another Texas dog via Serbia. I really miss that little man he had a big heart and really never got the chance to show what he could become which could only have been something great. This business is rough on dogs and men's souls. Well that's where we stand right now here in November of 2013. I plan on writing a little on each dog including the ones that have gone on and the new ones in the works. I'll post snips of hunts and stories from us and others as well as lots of info I just deem appropriate for interested parties. Thanks for looking in!
