The Ripple Effect: Timing Double in Dog Training Jul 24, 2025

Show notes

Traveling to hunt in different parts of the country will expose your hounds to different terrain, different styles and different challenges. While in Wisconsin hunting with Ross Ellwagner, Heath saw all those in this trip. On the way to a Rodeo Heath and Ross had a conversation about training and how the timing of corrections can classic condition more issues that sometimes we don’t think about. In this episode they talk about how that happens and how sometimes you are better off saving that correction for another day.

Gone to the Dogs with Rubert Morgan Jul 21, 2025

Show notes

In this episode we journey to the village of Pope, in the southern tip of Panola County, Mississippi to visit with black coon hunter Rubert Morgan. At age 74, Morgan has worn many hats; farmer, auto worker, collegiate bull rider, community official and coonhound breed association director to name a few.

Mr. Morgan provides an entertaining look at the life of a black kid growing up under segregation but also enjoying his lifelong dream of being in the outdoors hunting with hounds.

Steve and Rubert met at the UKC Winter Classic in Batesville, Mississippi several years ago. Mutual friend, Kimberly Clark of Virginia, also black and also a coon hunter, urged Steve to bring Morgan onto the podcast and the result is an hour and several minutes more of dog talk at its finest.

A confessed Bluetick aficionado today, Rubert has enjoyed all breeds through the years beginning with a spotted pup that, as a kid, he crawled under the family home to claim. The story of Spot and others good hounds through the years, pack the episode and there’s even some looks at life as a black man growing up in a world where in many cases, he was the “only one that looked like me” in the crowd. You’ll enjoy this one, guaranteed.

Gone To The Dogs with Leon Childers Jul 14, 2025

Show notes

Similarities in age and geographical backgrounds make for easy conversation between Steve and his entertaining guest Leon Childers in this episode. Childers, born in eastern Kentucky, followed the path of many mountain-born boys whose families sought better jobs and better times in northern climes. For Childers, the move from the same area in which Steve’s grandparents were raised, it was a move to western Ohio, particularly Fairborn, near Dayton. Steve and Leon bring the dog talk at its finest to the Gone To The Dogs microphones in an hour-plus of coon dog conversation the likes of which one won’t experience from those of lesser ages. Steve is 78 and Leon is 82. Childers has owned some of the better Walker competition dogs of the past sixty years or more and has an AKC World Championship to his credit. The talk covers many of Childers’ best hounds and stories about his handlers and his favorite hunts over the years. The conversation is organic. The entertainment factor is off the charts. Enjoy.

Silent Pack: Part 2 - Super Sam Jul 10, 2025

Show notes

This episode continues on from the last on the dogs that never got the credit they deserved. Sam made catching bears look easy, his determination, speed, fearlessness, and stick ultimately cost him his life. For 6 years i got to follow him on countless adventures and will be forever grateful.

Gone To The Dogs: Lone Pine Legacy Update Jul 07, 2025

Show notes

Eight months have lapsed since we last visited with Randy Smith of the highly regarded and immensely successful Lone Pine Treeing Walker Kennel in Pennsylvania.

Steve and Randy share a wealth of information vital to anyone aspiring to make the bigtime in the coonhound world, whether as a breeder, trainer or competitor. Additionally much important information is provided in the realm of raising healthy litters.

When Randy Smith talks, veterans and novice hunters alike come to attention. We have more than an hour of great information and of course, ample portions of “Dog Talk At Its Finest” in this outstanding episode. Lean in.

Silent Pack: Part 1 Jul 07, 2025

Show notes

Every hound hunter has dogs that go unnoticed. Dogs that are in the shadows because of a more talked about dog. History even shows some of the legendary houndsman talked and wrote about certain dogs but used others to complete their pack. Here's to the dogs that never got the credit they deserved.

Gone To The Dogs with Cheyenne Cummings Jun 30, 2025

Show notes

Cheyenne Cummings of Seneca, Missouri is known throughout the coon hunting world as one of the really good guys in the sport. And like their owner, Cummings’ hounds wear the “really good” label, really good as well. One of them holds the PKC World Champion title and the other is a UKC Hall of Fame (5 time) Grand Nite Champion and Autumn Oaks National Grand Nite Champion, two the most respected titles in the game. And if that were not enough, his Redneck Backwoods Shack dog, a twelve-year-old Treeing Walker, is proving to be one of the most prolific stud dogs in the game. This episode covers some interesting topics including Cumming’s background, the backgrounds and resumes of his big-winning hounds and his thoughts about the condition of the sport, now and for the future. As Steve reviews the achievements of Shack and Stogie, as well as other big-winning hounds the likes of ProSport truck winner Tin Cup and big winning Sliding Clyde, both sired by Shack, the listener will understand why Cummings is an important voice in the fast moving coonhound game of today.

GONE TO THE DOGS with DARREN ALLGOOD Jun 23, 2025

Show notes

There’s plenty of “dog talk at its finest” in this episode with Hoosier tree dog enthusiast Darren Allgood. With three squirrel dog world championships under his belt and an affinity for Plotts and Mountain Curs, Steve takes the opportunity to catch up with his guest as he returns home from Plott Days. The result is some great conversation, tailor-made for brindle dog aficionados. The boys discuss Allgood’s background and beginning in an area that has long been famous for producing big-winning coonhounds and curs, many of them from the English Coonhound breed. Several coon hunting icons, of the two and four-legged variety, are discussed at length. This one is for good ole boys that love good hounds and love, even more, to sit and talk about them. For that reason, this one qualifies, without reservation, for the “dog talk at it’s finest” designation. See if you agree!
