Jingle Belle. A black and tan dauchaund (sp?). She don't do to well in the swimming pool so I'm thinking retrieving a duck ain't in her future!

Well, for a while we named our pets after Ole Miss athletes. Still got a weiner dog named Sesay, named after Ansu Sesay. We had Dou Dog before him. Named after Dou Innocent. May he rest in sweet peace! But my favorite dog name was a dog my dad told me stories about when I was a kid. His name was Haynes Jubilee Wayfair! Thats a dog name right there! Just the mention of his name makes me feel like I knew him!

Although this is a dog topic, I have a couple of cats with good names. Bing-Bong and Abercrombie! And I am quite sure they will run a deer!

Chili's Bistineau Hitman - "Chili" - My 9 yr old chocolate lab male. He's out of Hitman/Bistineau Joe's bloodlines.
Evangeline's Blue Dog - "Blue" - My 3yr old daughter's 4mos old black lab female. Well...let a 3yr old name a dog and anything can happen. Actually blue is the name of the dog in her favorite book. Deputy Fife also had a police dog name Blue.

i've got 2 biscuit eaters running around here:
HRCH Harrison's Eight Gauge -- Gauge (outta nobody in particular)
Eight Gauge's Mountain Man --- Trapper (FC AFC Ruger x Lucy MH ***, an NFC AFC bitch)
ya know, i think i'd be remissed if i didn't mention the "why" of my dog's names.........hey, i'm a dog guy, love training them, love watching them work, and love talking about them.
Eight Gauge is the name I'll use when i finally get to retire (long, LONG time away) and do things i like doing, even got the paperwork already done as it yields a small tax break...........thus, the inclusion of the names. But, as is such w/ most things personal, it goes far deeper than that. Each name has a bit of "me" in it.
fact is, i'm a history "buff". my interest is really peaked by duck hunting/market hunting history and the stories that lie therein, but also the portion of this great country's history in which the "west was won".
i am especially enamored w/ the latter....i love being "out west" from the desert mountains of new mexico/arizona to the vast plains that buffalo bill cody conquered to the peaks and valleys of the Grand Tetons and the areas such as Glacier National Park......pretty much everywhere in b/t as well.
my 2 dogs reflect my love of these 2 aspects...
when i initially purchased gauge, i had never heard of the great sport of testing/trialing, but knew he was gonna be my constant hunting companion for as long as his muscular body could handle it.....
having recently read from a book about market hunting the cheasapeake (can't remember the name) as well as the market hunting that took place in arkansas (not to mention the 'sports' who hunted cause they could), i came across a bit of our hunting heritage that caught my attention.....these market hunters would ease up to a raft of ducks (maybe thousands in number), pull a the trigger for a single shot, and they might kill 50-60 birds w/ that one shot. days when 4-500 birds were brought to market by a single gunner weren't uncommon.
the gun that did such damage? well, the now outlawed 8 GAUGE (or punt gun) as they are commonly called->
thus was born the name of my best bud: Harrison's Eight Gauge, call name Gauge. the thought was, i wanted a dog that brought to life the thunder of the punt gun, cause brother, when those triggers went off, ducks died and made it back to the boat...........rare has been the occasion over the past 5 yrs that my bud has not exuded the image of the punt gun -- big, cumbersome, at times more bang than i can stand , but never failing to bring em back.
for trapper, it's less about hunting and far more about hopefully staying alive w/ moderate success in (for us) uncharted territory -- Field Trials. along w/ that, i was in the middle of reading a great book by steven ambrose "Undaunted Courage" which describes the details of the Lewis and Clark expedition....while definitely in "search" of something materialistic for the government, i think both were searching for something in themselves -- much the way i do at times....there's really no greater peace for me than sitting quietly on a lift headed to the next slope or crashing over rocks on some white water or being out of control on some single track mountain biking -- i truly love the mountain west country.
interestingly, the most successful folks, relative to "success" at that time, were the "mountain men", who typically subsisted on what they hunted and killed or trapped.....lewis and clark were both cut a bit from this cloth, and their expedition may have been the greatest hunting trip of all time...........when trapper's name hit me i was staring at this picture on my hunting trip to "out west", a trip which took us very near the actual path lewis and clark took on their "western trip"......this is the picture i took, and did a bit of photoshopping to:
i named it "the last friendly place" b/c that's what i felt like....the gates leading to a small mountain range, a mountain range that at any moment the waxing and waning of success and failure hang on each and every move made by the individuals steadfast in conquering their goals -- very similar to my own thoughts for trapper.
anyhow, those are our stories and their names
