Tasha made some more friends tonight.

She has had a busy week. She tracked on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. We recovered three deer out of four. ~ Cliff Shrader, Louisiana

first deer for mars

10/24/2014

Imported from Denmark on October 7 by Diane Webb and John Willmore of California, Mars will live and track with Jim White of Louisiana. Mars is the father of Taya, Tasha, and Thor, all littermates bred in Denmark by Lise-Lotte Schulz and living in the U.S.

It didn't take Mars and Jimbo long to track this deer. The deer was still alive in tall, tall grass. Mars has landed! ~ Cliff Shrader, Louisiana

Jim and his family are doing a great job with Mars. Thank you, Jimbo!

reflecting on kasi

10/23/2014

This was SUvCh NUvCh SVCh FC Hound's Kashmir who died at age 14.5, quite apparently in his sleep, three years ago while I was at work. Kasi fathered just two litters before leaving Sweden at the age of five but he is in many, many pedigrees of dachshunds around the world. And he was the father of just one litter after he came to the States, but that litter of seven, my O litter, consisted of seven very talented and highly accomplished dogs.

Thank you, Marie Gadolin - kennel Hound's, for sending me Kasi and his old Scandinavian bloodlines when I needed him most!

ps Kasi is in Teo's pedigree as he is a great-grandfather.

another deer recovery for tasha

teo and taya

10/22/2014

Newest photo of Teo (foreground) who turned 7 months on Oct 12. It is hard to believe that I have had him six weeks already. Teo is a cool pupster with many layers to his character. He is high energy and thinks quite a lot of himself, strutting often like a little prince! He is spurlaut, has good ground clearance, moves very efficiently, is highly attentive, weighs 19 lbs, and has the most coarsely-textured top coat I have ever had on a longhair. I love all these things about him and more. The biggest surprise to me is that OWL is spending the most time playing with him! They are looking something like kindred spirits.

It is Taya in the photo with Teo pup.

multi-national mars now cajun marz

Marz with Jim White

So this six year old dog was bred by someone in Finland (Ilse Kokkonen - kennel Maxi-Tax)

lived six years with someone in Denmark (Lise-Lotte Schulz - kennel Tranevang)

was purchased and transported to Copenhagen airport on October 7 by someone from California (John Willmore and Diane Webb)

was picked up at O'Hare by someone from Ohio (me)

transferred in Illinois to someone from Louisiana (Cliff Shrader who was on a hunting trip)

stayed three days in the hunting camp with Cliff and his buddies

then eight days in Louisiana with Cliff and Cheryl

and went on Sunday to live with the alligator hunter guy in the picture (Jimbo White).

This is Mars - Cajun Jim says it's Marz! - on his way to a deer track this evening. I don't know whether it is a training track or a real one but I look forward to hearing how it goes!

Marz is Multi-CH Maxi-Tax Maroon Marstax, father of my Taya, Cliff's Tasha, and Derek Smith's Thor (Seymour).

All the Best to Cajun Marz!

great recovery for hard-working tasha

10/12/2014

Tasha with her proud owner!

And with a very pleased hunter!

Tasha braved the high temperatures and humidity to recover a nice buck. The arrow deflected off the shoulder blade and exited the paunch. He backtracked and crossed his own trail twice. He swam across a barrow pit with at least one alligator in it....we went around! Although the buck was only a couple hundred yards from where he was shot, we covered 1.25 miles tracking one hour and twenty nine minutes. Lots of this time I was on my hands and knees crawling through the willows, kudzu and cockaburs! There were only two small spots of blood on the entire trail. Tasha continues to amaze me and she was awesome today! ~ Cliff Shrader, Louisiana
