I have put this as a suggestion every year on the spring survey. No response. My guess it would lead into people illegally running deer with dogs. Thus making it hard to control. A lot of times depending on what the dog is chasing at the time determines what kind of dog it is. (HE,,,HE) Just my opinion. Coach |

Daddyjan: I have a breed of dog called the "boykin spaniel". The dog was bred to use to hunt turkeys. I use mine for retrieving (doves and ducks). If you know of anyone who would like a puppy, I have some litters from time to time. |

TScott: They are great dogs and very versatile. They also work great as track dogs if you are a bowhunter. If you can send me your email or telephone number I'll notify you next time I have some pups. |
