Glad those two episodes turned out well, for the dogs and the people involved.
This warm weather has everything messed up. We just got home from several days of chasing ducks in eastern AR, and I saw the least ducks I have in over twenty years of hunting out there. We killed a few every day, but there's just no migratory ducks in the region......... all native birds. Word is that they are up in Illinois and other states up there where it's cooler. There's thousands of acres of beans and cotton unharvested in AR, same as here. I even saw peanuts still unharvested near Marianna. I doubt they will get harvested at all. It's not going to get significantly colder unless the rain fronts stop coming through every few days. It goes hand in hand.
