NITECH'PR'CARRELLS BIG HORN RIVER TSIU

DOB: September 9, 2006
Sire: CH GRNITECH'PR'SAWYERS DEANWOOD DYLAN
Dam: 'PR'BIG HORN RIVER SEQUOIA
Owner: Dean Carrell, Worland, Wyoming

Allen,
I took my camera along last night and took this pic of Tsiu.
I've had a lot of nice hounds through the years but only
three I would call really special. The first two were both run over
when they were four so you can bet I'm pretty careful with Tsiu. He
just turned three and with the advent of the Garmin, I hope to enjoy
him for several years.

Tsiu's strange name came from my son. He had just returned from a
sheep hunt in Alaska where he hunted near the Tsiu River. Daylen
hunts Tsiu on lions and bobcats in the winter, where he also does a
nice job.

While we have good coon hunting where I live, I'm pretty far from the
coon dog world out here in Wyoming. I make a couple trips back east
each year and plan on taking a little swing down through Nebraska,
Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma next month. I'm getting Tsiu collected
at Once Frozen and looking forward to hunting with different folks
each night.

If any of you good folks at UKC can ever get out here, there's a lot
to see and do. My daughter will take you fishing and I'll make sure
you enjoy a Wyoming coon hunt.

This was Kaeli's first elk says Dean. She will have a hard time topping this one in the years to come!
