Let’s see your pup

Dogs truly are the greatest.
Here’s Pocky. She’s a staffy X who knows what.
Loves to play, cuddle and eat :)

Hurts like hell every time we lose one. We lost two between last November and this January. Both lived long, wonderful lives and were loved. I've had people say "I'm not getting another dog because I cannot handle losing them" - I'm the opposite.. I cannot see going thru life without them!
Exactly! It does hurt like hell but the 13-14-15 years you get of that amazing unconditional love and ever present companion is worth it!

Ellie, our current lab…our 3rd. And a great pet and huntress!

I also have an Ellie. Actually, her official name is Spinelle (predecessors were Pearl and Opal). Six Labs in sixty years. Why anyone would buy any other breed is a mystery to me. The ranch family that owns the property where I'm hunting now is on their first Lab. What a sweet dog. The missus asked me the other day what book she should get to train him for bird hunting. I laughed. "The same book I use: no book! Labs come ready to hunt right out of the chute." Over the years I have seen a couple in the field wearing electronics. Just a decoration. Owners showing off their newest digital toys.

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

2,822fps, ES 8.2
This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.
