This is my dog

["yote"]

Here's my hound from hell; doing what he likes best.
Chocolate Lab, 8 1/2 yrs old and Pheseant dog extrodinerre'
(I don't think that I spelled that right.)
He has not lost a single bird in 6 years. (over 180).

P.S. A buddy of mine in Northern Wisconsin uses Fox Hounds for
snoeshoe hare. Much like your's but a little bit more muscular.
Those long legs do better in the deep stuff.
