Good news. Megan and her brave dog Tony, along with her boyfriend Ned will be coming to Hazen for Christmass. Initial trials last year indicated the Chihauhau can be an effective pheasant hunter. According to Megan pheasants confuse the dog for a rabbit. Megan gave up trying to get Tony to point when she realized it was useless in tall grass. Megan believes the dog will be very popular among hunters. Tony can be placed in a back pack to recharge while you continue to hunt. I asked Megan about the possibility Tony could be picked up and carried off by eagles or other large birds. Meg has made a small parachute should such an event occur. In order to retrieve Megan says Tony will use an assistant Chihauhua. The assistant is currently in the U.S. illigally from Mexico, so he or she will not be named. The two dogs have special harnesses they can tow downed pheasants with. The technology has not been perfected. To protect the dogs from partially alive pheasants they will wear helmits and have some body armour. Since Megan is in the fashion business she will design a complete line of clothing for the hunting dogs. In the picture you can see Tony in the cow disguise. Megan believes pheasants are like geese and size does not matter when they see something. In other words to a pheasant a cow is a cow even if it is only a foot tall. Other clothing items include the normal camoflauge, and a special new prairie dog suite rumored to be out this fall.
