GONE TO THE DOGS WITH DEXTER WHATLEY

The podcast moves this week down Texas way, to the northeast Ark-La-Tex region for a visit with longtime coon hunter and Bluetick enthusiast Dexters Whatley. Dex has been on the podcast a couple of times in our on-the-spot interviews at major coonhound events the likes of Autumn Oaks and the UKC Winter Classic. Co-host Corey Gruver and Steve have been addressing various aspects of treeing in reference to coonhounds in previous episodes. In this podcast, Whatley joins in a discussion based on exploring the many aspects of trail or track dogs in our sport. Whatley, in his competition days was well-known for following some mighty-good Bluetick hounds and Steve is not hesitant to explore with the man that fed them, the attributes of those dogs in regard to whether or not they could be identified as good track dogs. All the aspects of what it means to be recognized as a “track dog” are explored in this episode. Dex is very knowledgeable, can be extremely humorous and speaks with an accent and with the demeanor of one that is definitely Lone Star to the bone. Enjoy.
