My Brother's Dog

This is Zoe. She is a hunting machine.

Funny Story. When my brother got her, he wasn't exactly planning on getting a dog. As I understand it, he'd just graduated from Ole Miss and was in the process of buying a house. About the same time the Old Man decided he needed a hunting dog and put a deposit down on a puppy. Only no one, including our Mom, knew about this. The Old Man has a history of having done this, and while he hasn't yet learned not to, he has at least learned that he needs to give her a heads up before the new pup arrives. So anyway, he's in process of delivering the news and, well, he loses. So he offers the dog to my brother. Well, not the dog - the non-refundable deposit. My brother still has to decide if he wants a puppy, drop everything and get down to the kennel (I think it was near Augusta, GA), pick her up, and get her back home, all withing less than 24 hours. Thankfully, he did.

She's hunted in more states than most people have been to:

• Tennessee

(This is a really cool shot our other brother took with a high speed camera.)

• North Carolina
• South Carolina
• Alabama
• Mississippi
• Arkansas
• Oklahoma
• Texas
• Kansas
• Saskatchewan

Time to go home.

Hey Dad, where's home today?
