  • Tree Dog Tuesday

    I enjoy the podcast, especially Tuesday episodes. Since listening I’ve also switched to JOY for my hound with allergies. She’s doing great on Neptune 26.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Beagles with B.J: Zach Miller
Q: How do you prepare Skinner for hunts and what's your typical setup?
Miller focuses on bracing with one other dog, keeps him limber with solo sessions, and adjusts strategies based on how the dog performs with competition; he emphasizes the importance of keeping the edge and not over-cleaning a dog.
Beagles with B.J: Zach Miller
Q: What makes Skinner special and why campaign him across formats?
Skinner is an all-around, high-performing beagle with strong jumping and line control, capable of competing in multiple formats due to his versatility and trainability; Miller emphasizes learning the dog's quirks and tailoring the approach to each format.
Tree Dog Tuesday: Drive........(Ft Kyle Dortch)
Q: What role does the family play in keeping such a breeding and hunting operation going?
Family support is essential. My wife and kids help manage feeding, kennels, and daily routine, while parents and extended family provide stability and encouragement to keep pursuing high-level competition and breeding goals.
Tree Dog Tuesday: Drive........(Ft Kyle Dortch)
Q: What does it take to succeed at the Super Stakes and replicate that with a line like Drive Line?
It takes relentless hunting, consistent training, and a willingness to push through sleepless nights. The key is maintaining a strong support system and making breeding decisions that trust the line's performance and reliability across generations.
Tree Dog Tuesday: Drive........(Ft Kyle Dortch)
Q: How did Drive Line come about and what made you decide to keep him over other pups?
Drive Line was selected after a careful evaluation of the litter and the potential of the female line. He stood out for his mouth, tracking, and consistency; choosing him over his siblings and other dogs was a deliberate decision to pursue a dog that could carry forward the family's breeding goals.
