They’re here folks. The hot, sultry, dog days of summer, considered by the ancient Greeks to be connected with heat, drought, sudden thunderstorms, lethargy, fever, mad dogs and bad luck.  Hound hunters will agree with that Hellenistic view, adding mosquitos, poisonous snakes and humidity to the mix as they try to keep a hound in shape or to attend competitions at this time of year. Steve and Corey touch on track dogs and tree climbers in this episode from the front porch on a dog day afternoon. Steve has some pretty serious views on the subject of climbing trees when training hounds and offers a strong admonishment to those tempted to apply the method to their training regimen in a single word, don’t!
