Since Sunday I've been taking the dogs out.  Jake and Sam.  Jake is about 3 1/2 now, and Sam is 1 1/2.  I believe November she'll be one year and eight months.  Well they've been doing pretty good.  Tonight was bit of an adventure.  I set them off on deer with a pup that is five months old.  Huge risk if my older dogs run a deer.  Thankfully out of the four I seen none of them were chased after.  Ignored the deer and got a rabbit up.  Good news is Hoss one of my five month old pups took right off with the older dogs at the start.  Granted he had some trouble moving through the thickets but over all I was happy.  Scott went with me, and we tried a new spot.  Wasn't the best.  My stupid Shocking System went dead on me on the handheld.  No extra batteries so had to call it early.
