I spray Permethrin on the screen door of my CCS Lean one plus. Not a perfect solution, but helps to keep them off the screen, thus keeps more out when dogs and I enter/exit the shelter.

I sure love looking at your canoe Al.

OK ... for me ... 1) My dogs. They are a lot of work - responsibility. That said, I would not enjoy the trip nearly as much without them. Therefore, they bring me the simplest of joys ... they are a luxury. 2) My lean one plus tarp tent. I have cooked in it when needed. Been rain, storm...

I walk my dogs 2-4 miles a day and oversee 2 properties that border mine. I maintain trails, keep lawns mowed, keep the owners in firewood etc. On top of that, it is opening bow season this weekend so I have been tuning my arrows and shooting my longbow. I am training my pup to track deer as...

I have paddled them both. They are in great shape, the Penobscot looking near new.

My ash beaver tail with a guide stroke is real quiet, usually can only hear water dripping just before the catch. Ray special with box stoke is silent … have snuck up on moose and deer with it. Sorry, these are straight shafts.

Tryin’ My tarp tent is a lean 1 plus. It has been everywhere, plenty of room for myself and two dogs.

Al, My buddy Hogan took the picture. He took pics of dogs and I paddling on the flowage as well. Jake might be able to figure out how to take pics, but I do not trust Max with my phone ….

Tsuga8, Hanoverian Scent Hound. The6 are tracking machines often used in America for Search and Rescue, as well as Sheriffs departments. In Europe the are to track wild boar and or deer/elk. I have him for tracking wounded deer as well as hoping he has the chops to become a therapy dog. My...

They do rinse their paws … but do not shake them out! I have not been able to train that skill yet.😉

Yup … it is out there Martin. Hi, my name is Bob … and I use a Double Paddle.

I worry more about sand getting between the ribs and wearing away the varnish. With the sleeping pads in the boat, the boys know where I want them. Depending on the trim I need dictates which dog I call into the canoe first, and point to the correct mat. Their nails rarely touch the wood...

I use ( on occasion) a DB in day paddling and tripping. At first, I kept that truth pretty quiet. But the way I paddle it just makes sense. Going up river against a 3 mph current it is just so much nicer … especially after a couple of miles. Paddling current in Florida while Manatee watching...

Sorry pics are out of order, posting from my iPad is a nightmare … too many gremlins live in it.

10 years ago, my pup Jake was 6 months old. His first trip was with a buddy of mine … an old poster on this site named Hogan. We visited the Turtle Flambeau Flowage in northern Wisconsin. Today I returned from the TFF with my 10 year old Vizsla named Jake, a veteran of many trips to the...

Today was hot and humid … good day to practice the patience of my pup. This is the last practice day before our short trip to the Turtle Flambeau Flowage in Wisconsin … it will be Max’s first trip. We paddled about an hour with a tripping load of gear. Max did settle and responded well to...

My dogs and I have a short trip planned for mid August. Jake is a veteran of many trips deep in the bush. This will be my pup Max ( 10 months ) first experience. Here we are exploring and practicing on the Trempealeau river, very twisty and lots of current. Max is settling in the canoe...

I really enjoy your pictures Al.

Boy you have really beautiful dogs!
