In this week's episode I am joined by Joey Wright from Dixie Doggers. Joey has been hunting with dogs his entire life but it wasn't until he was an adult that he started hog hunting with dogs. His hog hunting journey has been a roller coaster ride of breeds and styles of dogs. From rough and fast running catch dogs to open long range bay dogs the style of his dogs has changed drastically. We also cover how Dixie Doggers was started and went from just a kennel name to a business, and now a podcast and Youtube channel. Be sure to check out Dixie Doggers!

In this week's episode I am joined by Cody Hesseltine. Cody is an avid hunter and ran hounds when he was young. In the last year and a half he has jumped head first into hunting West Siberian Laikas. He describes why they are the perfect fit for his suburban home. I was even fortunate enough to go on a coon hunt with his pair of Laikas after we recorded this episode. You will be able to see that on my YouTube channel in a few months!

In this week's episode I am joined by Aidan Anderson. Aidan plays professional baseball for the Texas Rangers organization. This is not the normal 9-5 that most of us have. It takes a lot of family support to keep hounds and keep them in the woods. During the off season Aidan hits the woods hard, often hunting with his family. He has 2 brothers, a sister, multiple nieces and nephews, and of course his dad that all hunt as well. They have even started a lifestyle brand called Coon Branch Outdoors. CBO is rooted in faith, family and the outdoors.
