Happy Dachshund Day everyone! Yes, you guessed it, you're getting a double dose of dachshund-inspired episodes this week due to the occasion! Paul Thomas of BlackHawk Kennels joins us for this episode, and after making the trip down for our annual Evansville falconry meet this past season, went into great depths discussing the historical details of dachshunds in the US, especially for use in falconry, his history in the sport, thoughts on breeding, amongst the other usual topics. While most people are familiar with the general details of the breed's origins in the US, I have no doubt there's details discussed in this episode that a lot of people may not be aware of, so for those of you who are continuing to enjoy hearing about this breed, this will be another good one for you! Special thanks to Paul as well for helping to support the podcast!
