Throwback Thursday: Earthdog

Way back in the day when I was just a year old mom and dad took me to my very first Earthdog competition. Immediately I took to tracking and “hunting” the rats, as seen in this throwback video:

However, my young self hadn’t quite grasped the concept of hunting underground (I know can you believe it!), so I would bypass the tunnels and head straight for the rats!

I mean can you really blame me…..I was looking for the shortcut!

Fast forward to today, and I’m pretty sure finding a rat in a tunnel would be a piece of cake!

Holes are my specialty now!

Was your dog a natural born hunter like I was? Or did it develop over time, like my hole excavating skills? Ammo the Dachshund
