Been a lot of years but recall one lil pup in particular went every where i did first hunt.
I started most pups about 20 minutes for their early hunts. Tried to get them out often but mindfull of soft joints first year. Have fun !
Rat terrier in pic?.
The other dog is a mountain cur feist.
I have been taking him with me while I look for squirrels, and have shot a 22 short,
and it doesn't bother him.
I thought I would start out with something not to loud.
