We left you hanging but, the wait is over!

Chris and Shorty catch up and talk about how to care for your hound and other hunting critters on a budget. The economy is in the tank, gas prices outrageous and dog food is expensive. Shorty runs through a list of antibiotics, the types their uses and where to get them. Chris and Shorty have been caring for hounds for decades and have found sources for antibiotics that may not be labeled for hounds but they contain the same ingredients.

DISCLAIMER: Chris Powell and Shorty Gorham are not veterinarians. The information provided in this podcast is for reference only. Dog owners should do their own research and consult a veterinarian for any medical questions. Houndsman XP is not liable for any misuse of any antibiotic or for the medical care or treatment of listeners hounds.

Hershel House, legendary craftsman, built traditional flintlock rifles using the old methods and raw materials. There has never been a more well known builder or one who has accumulated such a large group of acolytes.

When Chris heard that Mark Dufresne was attending a rifle building school in Woodbury, KY, he loaded up and drove to one of his most favorite places east of the Mississippi. There were a couple of things that urged Chris to make the three hour trip to Woodbury. One, he had attended multiple flintlock rifle matches there and, two, he wanted to see what was going on at Hershel’s place. It was amazing experience.

Joining Chris on this episode of the Houndsman XP Podcast is Mark Dufresne and two crucial members of the Board of Directors of the Hershel House Woodbury School Foundation.
