Determination

Olive Oyl is trying out the new dog house I
made from my old truck dog box. She thinks
it feels pretty good.

Little Galla Creek Button decided that

Hard Tack

Wayne Hawkins took Tack road hunting

Saturday. Just 10 months old, Tack treed

several times and Wayne sent us a photo of Tack

and his treed prize. Tack is a son of All

Cranked Up and Max. Cranky is a daughter

of Romeo and Frank Branch's Mandy. Max

is a son of Otis and Kloss' Lady. Romeo is

a son of Bell and Max. Kloss' Lady was a

Gerald Johnson Feist from Berryville, AR.

Tack is a nice Feist and we are proud he

has a great home in GA.

Quiet and Still Game!

If I am very still ...maybe they will
not see me...

well, they may see me for they are
looking right at me....

This is better ....I am out of sight...well, they
are still looking.

I will lay down here and then they

will not see me for sure!

This is Jim E Sue's mother working on her web page.
Ruby was owned by Mike Dempsey. Mike died after
a long battle with cancer...I often wonder what
happened to Ruby.

Butchering Day

When the November cold comes it was time

to butcher the first hogs in the mountains. The

first photo is Pat McCormack on butchering day

in the late 1940s. The next two are of his grandson

on his butchering day. Pat said "eleven year old Garrison

Scott Brown, our first Grandson shot this buck at about

125 yards. He was hunting about eight miles NW of

Arapaho, OK. Don't know what kind of rifle he shot

but it was a . 223 cal. Last year he bagged a wild turkey

with a . 22 Marlin bolt action. His dad made him dress

the deer out. He got quite a bit of blood on his coveralls.

His Mom named him after his Garrison ancestors."

(Garrison and Pat are my distant cousins.)

Road Huntin'

the other has a 4 pounder and a 3 3/4 pounder.

Wayne caught 15 in one day on Lake Blue Ridge.

They are really beautiful fish.

Stuart--Thinking!

Wonder if a dog thinks? Stuart seems to be
saying "let's go off in those woods and look
for somthing to chase up a tree, little friends!"

Back when I owned Nogo Nell

Two Hunting Buddies!

Half Sisters

Took Opal and Dobs hunting yesterday. Here

they are doing their part. Dobs trees back

away from the base of the tree and locks a

stare on her target.

Red!

This is Red. She is out of Spud/Carolina and is
a sister to Fred Allen's pup, Jessie, and the Buck
family's pup, Ziggie. We also have Red's sister,
Button. Button is only about half as big as Red.
Carolina is out of Charlie Cross' good Sq. dog,
Brownie.

Arky pup turns Okie!

Fred Allen of Ardmore, Ok. sent some pictures
of our little Spud/Carolina pup that he picked
up last week. He is calling her Jessie and it looks
like she has settled into being an Okie quite
easily.

The last picture is of Fred's son Trevor and
a nice 8 point buck he took recently on a
father/son hunting trip. We hope Jessie will
develop into a good squirrel dog and Trevor
and Fred can take squirrel hunting trips in the
future.

Poodle

Favorite Galla Creek pup!

Floyd is almost there!

Pretty Boy Floyd won a hunt this week in
in Champion Class....he needs one more to
be a Grand Squirrel Champion. Floyd is
a full brother to Spud and out of Spook/
Max.

Part of Deans email to us:
Hello Larry and Betty, Hope you and yours are all well.
We just got back from an A.M.,P.M. hunt at Williams
County and Floyd won the champion class of each.
One more win will make him a grand champion.
We came out ahead of some good dogs today including
L.B. Chapmans Indiana Son and Terry McKinney of
Indiana's fine cur Mercedes to name a couple. I am
very proud of Floyd's accomplishments he is just plain
hard to beat at the hunts.He has been in 13 hunts.
He has won 9 times got second twice. to Nell I might
add, and won his champion cast once but another cast
winner came back higher and he got fifth once. Even
more important than that he is a true pleasure to
hunt and we love him like a family member. He
will be buried on our home farm when the time comes.
Thanks again for breeding this special dog!

Leaves are starting to fall.

There is a squirrel up there.
