Craig Koshyk is a photographer, writer, hunter, and historian of hunting dogs. His podcast and magazine; Hunting Dog Confidential is heralded as a top resource for hunting dog enthusiast who want to know what lies beneath the surface of these great breeds we hunt. 

Heath and Craig take a deep dive into the history of our hounds, where they came from, how they got their names and how they were bred. Listeners will be drawn in to the conversation as Craig lays out how the hounds came to North America and what their functions and use was in colonial America. 

On this episode of The Journey on the Houndsman XP Podcast Network, instead of looking ahead, we take a look at the past. After all, how can we get where we’re going if you don’t know where we’ve been?
