I have Sally vaccinated , and I give her the monthly oral tablet . I give her a quick wipe with a tick spray , " happy Jack " , or "lucky Jack " . they want the Spray to be right on the dog , I spray a rag , and wipe her down with it . I ask the veterinarian about the soresto collar . she...

I've seen a few running around with the lower jaw shot off .

I swapped out that trap , and remade the set . I need to look that trap over . I'm not sure if it might be twisted , or anything . I really need to look over the chain swivels , to be sure they still swivel . I put more swivels in my chain , to keep the chain from wrapping up . this helps...

Momma wasn't too far away , I'd guess . the cub kept making the " MAWWWW " sound . I'm glad she didn't rush us . things could of got ugly fast .

CLFD , you got it . I've ran into him a few times, years ago, towards the end of archery season . he would be waiting in the game lands parking lot for me to come out . just about every night , he was waiting for me . first question was , why are you so late coming out ? and it snowballed...

yesterday I spent some time with a game warden . he was asking me about ticks on my dog , Sally . I told him yes , they are awful . some days I'll pick 30 or more off of her . He was telling me about his yellow lab , a 120 pound male . His lab is a bird dog . He told me about his dog getting...

I'll start off with the disclaimer , NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED . I've often said everyday out in the woods is a new experience , yesterday was just that . it was a normal morning , I left the house shortly after daybreak to go check my traps . well I'm checking and get to my next one...

I had one tick dug in on my stomach right at my belt line . I got it out . a day or two later it got sore , like a wood splinter does . I don't remember it getting red , or anything like that . I called my DR , and he got me on the antibiotics . these ticks are nothing to fool with , they...

Sally likes to play ball , and frisbee . when she needs a new one , I add it to the auto ship , as a one time purchase , and it ships with that order for free . Chewy is very convenient . I've never had a problem with them . when I set up the auto ship , this is very easy too , I remember...

I don't crimp any rifle ammo . I don't have anything that needs a crimp . "IF" I was crimping I'd rather use a bullet with a cannular . I'm not sure if crimping on a non-cannular bullet would distort it , or affect it in some unforeseen way .

from what I read , this only seems to be getting longer . afterwhile , I lose interest , and get the screw it's . "IF" I was building something new today , I'd be looking at actions that support the use of pre fit BBL's . I'd buy a BBL vise , and action wrench . when I ordered the new...

"Sever" strikes again . did you have good blood trails ? Danielle's shows a lot of blood at the exit , looks like it should have been an easy one . congratulations to you both .

they say when the tick vomits , this is when there juices get in you , and causes Lyme disease . I'd think squeezing would do this . Denise , used tweezers on my ticks all the time .a lot of these , the heads broke off . in time the heads would come to the surface and I could scratch it...

it's sad how thick the ticks are in places . it takes some of the fun out of being out in the woods . glad you found it and got it removed . just watch it for a few days for the bullseye . when I get home , I strip down , and give me a good look over in front of a mirror . I've been...

I'm sure happy for you getting Manny back on the go . I'd be lost without my Sally . YES , I only give Sally glucosamine , one in the morning , one in the evening . I give it to her right before I feed her . She loves the things , acts like they are a treat . to me , these look like...
