At present we only own one dog. Found her under the van one morning. I am always surprised how good some of these throw-away dogs can be (although I am sure there are some real bad ones too). I live in Florida although a little North and East of you.
The last one before this also turned out to be a good one.
I wish I owned as much land as you as we only have 40 acres, although in a way it doesn't matter as relatives own literally thousands of acres in this area. It is nice to be able to roam the woods and shoot all you want without asking someone's permission.
Like you I no longer hunt, although I have nothing against it.
Yes, the solid black one is a throw-away that I saved. Good dog.
