Tux Tales
Believed by many to be the greatest American author and storyteller, Mark Twain understood mankind's goodness and folly. And to underscore both, he incorporated humor, wit, irony, and biting satire. He aimed to effect positive change in the human condition and to make the world a better place.
It is with this in mind, that I began a labor of love in creating "Tux Tales." My goal is to celebrate dogs in general and EB's specifically. In doing so, I also employ a style and content that utilizes those conventions that helped make Mark Twain's works classics. - Ric
A Day of celebration
May 11 marks the one-year anniversary of our first litter. Seven pups, five states, and one proud mama. Happy birthday, Valkyrie, Bravo, Venice, Riley, Vexola, Rio, and Slade!
What’s Left
In the dog world, "what's left" often means the last pick. But as Tux, Trinity, and now their seven puppies have taught me, "what's left" has a way of becoming what's best.
TRUST YOUR DOG
What does NFL coach Bill Belichick's "do your job" philosophy have to do with bird dogs? Everything. Tux shares tales of trust earned in the field, by the river, and in the most unexpected moments.
A Howling Hello…
A howling hello! I'm Tux, and this is my first "Tux Tails" column. Join me as I share my adventures at my very first field trial - the Rocky Mountain Cup. There were EB's everywhere, a confusing thing called judging, and yes, Daddy missed his shot. Again.
