Ibland måste även sötkorvar bada… speciellt när man sprungit i leran på jakten. Max älskar jakten, är ute och springer och kommer när han blir kallad. Men det gör ju också att han blir lite skitig och då måste han ju bada. Till hans stora sorg… Kolla bara den där blicken, skamsen och “tyck-synd-om-mig” ? Men efter badet, med en ordentlig nerskvättning av både mig och Adde, är det bästa att få gosa och “smutsa …

Andy reporting: Hunting elk, day 3, round 2
No joy on round 1. 7 roe deer, but we aren’t hunting them today. Now on to round 2 after some breakfast. And, for once, I’m in luck. I got a station just 100 meters from a good parking spot. The dog is just about ready to go.
Andy reporting: Hunting elk, day 3, round 1
Good morning! Another quite long walk to my station, and, this time, in the dark. But now, when there is a bit more daylight, it looks good here. About 30 minutes in, I had a couple of roe deers come out for a quick snack. But, we are not hunting roe deer right now, so I just enjoyed watching them eat. We’re looking for bigger deers and elks.
Andy reporting: Hunting elk, final report for day 2
So, finally got one. An elk bull weighing in at about 300 kg. It feels really good that we got one, we were starting to worry that we didn’t have any wild game on our grounds this year. Another really good thing was that our puppy (almost 6 months old) got to “meet” a killed animal for the first time, and it went really well. He was interested, I played with it and got some …
Andy reporting: Hunting elk, day 2 round 3
After some goulash for lunch, we are back at it again. I got the short straw again and got the most distant location. Just a quarter of a mile, but up a quite steep hill. However, I found about 1 liter of chanterelles. Let’s see how the hunting will work out.
Andy reporting: Hunting elk, day 2, round 1
Good morning! Another early morning, the dog wanted to snuggle so he woke me up at 0330, but we both got about another hour worth of sleep after that. Then we woke again at 0445 and it was about time to get up anyways . So, took the dog for a walk, and there was some frost and just about freezing. The forecast looks good and we’re hoping for a good day of …
Andy reporting: Hunting elk, day 1, rounds 4 and 5
We kept a high pace today and managed to get 2 short rounds in after the main round (round 3) after lunch. However, we had no luck finding any animals at all. At least, no animals that we are hunting right now. A couple of guys saw a total of 13 roe seers and 1 fox, but nothing more exciting than that. So, after dinner we are all very tired and are heading to …
Andy reporting: Hunting elk, day 1, round 3
Hello! “No joy” on round 2 either. Now we just started round 3 after some lunch. The weather is still fair and we’re hoping for some action.
Andy reporting: Hunting elk, day 1, round 2
Hi there! The weather is behaving well. Mostly overcast but no rain an about 10-12 degrees (C). I drew the short straw and got the long walk this time. About a mile through wetlands. Not fun, but a good workout. It’s very pretty here in this mosquito infested wetlands: The dogs has past me already, so it’s not very exciting now, but one never knows. Something could have doubled back and be …
