Spring has sprung across the podcast sphere and the boys have moved the Gone To The Dogs operation to the front porch where the air is fresh and the conversation flows a little more freely.This episode will be Corey’s last for awhile as he and his wife Kayla welcome their second child, another girl, into the Gruver household.  It could happen at any time. It’s an exciting time for sure and one that will demand a little more of Corey’s attention than usual.  He’ll rejoin the show as soon as things settle down a bit over there in Greenville, PA.In this, Corey’s parting episode, the discussion moves to observations on the recent UKC Tournament of Champions.   We break down the hounds and the handlers of the finals and offer some pretty darn good arm-chair quarterbacking of the final three from the perspective of individuals that have seen their fair share of major events from behind the scenes.At the center of this one is a discussion on why Walker dogs win when other coonhound breeds don’t.   You can almost hear the porch boards squeaking as the motion tries to keep up with the spirited conversation.   Grab a rocker and join in this “dog talk at its finest.” We would like to thank those who support this podcast.  Special thanks to Alpha Dog Nutrition and Double U Hunting Supply for sponsoring this episode.  Want to learn more about Alpha Dog Nutrition?

Listen in and get to know the people behind the product and their mission to make sure our dogs have all the tools to succeed in the field for years to come.Things have come a long way for Alpha Dog since things started in Joe’s garage.  Their commitment and reputation of providing the tools our dogs need to perform at a top level has resulted in a very loyal customer base, and some very happy dogs.  With a background in waterfowl hunting, both Joe and Zach know that all dogs can benefit from balanced nutrition, but after one bear hunt Zach knew that hounds were a different breed. His appreciation and respect for what our dogs do sparked a fire for hounds, bringing him back to bear camp year after year. Want to learn more about Alpha Dog Nutrition?

The boys have closed the damper, swept out the firebox and moved operations to the front porch for remainer of the spring and summer.  Spring peepers and hoot owls will provide ambient sound as the rockers get a workout on the rough-sawn boards at close of day.   But in this episode, the fire is still crackling and the conversation drifts to the subject of multi-purpose dogs, mostly coonhounds operating outside the normal bounds of track and tree.  It’s a good listen and a thought-provoker for anyone bold enough to consider using Old Blue to perform what many would consider unnatural acts.   Lean in and see if you don’t find this to be some interesting stuff.  It will be your last chance to spit on the stove for a while.   We would like to thank those who support this podcast.  Special thanks to Alpha Dog Nutrition and Double U Hunting Supply for sponsoring this episode.  Want to learn more about Alpha Dog Nutrition?

Steve is on the road for a couple of weeks to New Jersey for family time and some fly fishing.  The only dogs he’ll see is the daughter’s hound/pit bull mix and the family Dachshund Louie who accompanies Ella everywhere.  But the combined efforts of Ma Bell and Al Gore provide the opportunity to keep Gone To The Dogs on schedule while on the long and winding road. The boys discuss the format, breed breakdowns and the ambiance that makes the TOC the premier coonhound event that it is, an event that boasts a purse of $250,000 distributed among winners at the finals held on the weekend following the airing of this episode.  The overall winner captures $50 grand!  Who would have thunk it?Things get interesting, even humorous, when the boys throw another chunk in the stove to discuss recent posts on the Coon Hunting Conversations Facebook group page.  Moving stud dogs around the country, deep-and-lonely dogs being born that way or manmade and what is seemingly causing smaller heads in some coonhounds.  It’s all here and as the cliched phrase admonishes, “You won’t want to miss this one.”  Heck, we don’t want you to miss any of them.   Give that log a little more air, son.   We would like to thank those who support this podcast.  Special thanks to Alpha Dog Nutrition and Double U Hunting Supply for sponsoring this episode.  Want to learn more about Alpha Dog Nutrition?
