In this week's episode I am joined by Ronnie Snedegar. Ronnie has had an impressive run with his misfit pack of squirrel dogs over that last several years. What stood out to me the most is the work Ronnie does to get new people involved with squirrel dogs. He does numerous seminars and benefit hunts to expose people to this amazing way of life. We talk all about Ronnie's dogs of the past and the present and their impressive list of accomplisments.  Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://www.stonecreekhounds.com Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://fullcrymag.com Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

In this week's episode I am joined by Jeff Caubble. Jeff has a long history with hunting dogs but a few years ago he fell hard into the feist world. Looking for a fun way to spend time with his daughter he got back to his roots and got a feist to squirrel hunt. It wasn't long before he had another and another and now has six. He has also been heavily involved in the American Treeing Feist Association and competes regularly in their hunts. The feist have been a family affair and they themselves are family members, proving you can make a hunting dog a pet and still be successful.  Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://www.stonecreekhounds.com Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://fullcrymag.com Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia  

This week I am joined by Joe Seaburn to talk all about Willow. Willow was Joe's first squirrel dog and they have racked up quite the list of accomplishments. This is even more impressive after you hear the story of where she came from and how it all started. This episode has been in the works for a few years as we were supposed to record it at a hunt but ran out of time. Glad to finally get Joe on the podcast. If you'd like to see Willow go be sure to check out Joe's Youtube channel.  https://www.youtube.com/@whisperinthewindoutdoors Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://www.stonecreekhounds.com Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://fullcrymag.com Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia  

While waiting for casts to get back on Saturday night/Sunday morning at Black and Tan days Chris Nidy sat down with me to pass the time. We talked about how Chris went from showing Black and Tans and other dogs at AKC dog shows to getting into the nite hunts and eventually finding himself as president of the American Black & Tan Association. Chris had an important message about service and all the work it takes to run an association and hold large events. We all need to step up to help our asssociations, and clubs to continue so todays youth may one day be able to take them over. We had a few interuptions along the way as casts were rolling in and had to cut it a little short but it was a great conversation that we can all learn something from.    Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://www.stonecreekhounds.com Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://fullcrymag.com Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

We are bringing one of the most downloaded episodes out of the vault this week. I ran into some technical difficulties this week as I was trying to edit and upload the new episode and didn't want to miss a week so I thought we could relisten to this great episode with Todd Coles. I originally contacted Todd to record a podcast with little knowlegde of his dogs or himself and through this episode he has become a good friend and I am excited to relisten to this episode myself. Todd has been breeding his line of Treeing Feist for over 25 years. We discuss the history of his foundation stock, his breeding practices and of course some of the dogs he has raised.  Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://www.stonecreekhounds.com Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://fullcrymag.com Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia
