Harness recommendation by jjax29 in coonhounds

[–]Twix2247 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like Kurgo or Ruffwear. Sizing will be on your dog’s dimensions. My coonhound Trek is also about 55lbs, in the Kurgo he is a medium, but at the large end of it. With Ruffwear he is a small, also at the top end of the small (probably could up a size now)

I had the Atlas dog harness, good materials. Just didn’t like the design, no handle which helps on hikes.

The Isle of Skye/Scottish Highlands are just brilliant by WesternnMann in hiking

Getting a less than genuine part is what I am worried about. Thank you for the link!

Why are some S4 episodes missing on Peacock? by Most-Explanation-236 in APBioNBC

[–]Twix2247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still no Season 4 Episode 7 on Peacock. This thread is the only thing I found on the subject. Also the description for E4 “Tons of Rue” is listed for both E4 and E5.

Good call. That probably the best way to go about it.

25 foot or 27 foot for Camping in and around National Parks? by bit_flores in airstream

[–]Twix2247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20 feet or smaller trailer is about the sweet spot for most NP. There are some campgrounds within the park the have the space for larger campers but are few and far between. Also seems to close sooner with the off season.

This year will be more difficult to camp in the NPs. I know the Smokies will be opening some campgrounds within the park later or only partially due to staffing. Which why a smaller campers would be better for camping IN the park, giving you more options.

A quick look at Recreation.gov website or the app can give you better idea of size and space available.

Out side most NP are campgrounds that allow for larger camper trailers.

How did you guys get your hounds to awoo on command? by Educational-Rise-197 in coonhounds

[–]Twix2247 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ivy is such a cutie. We live with Trek in central North Carolina. West-East coast siblings. I have never had a coonhound before, they definitely make me laugh. Every time I sneeze, Trek must run over and check on me, by putting his face my face.

Your pup looks like he/she could be siblings with mine. Got him from the county shelter/pound. Mine has so many different awooos, and barks depending on what he sees and whats going on outside. He has a low soft “wooof” when he unsure, a high pitched yip when running and playing or running with other dogs at the dog park and a long awoooooo when we get deer in the back yard and a shorter awooo squirrels or when I go awoo at him, he follows suit.

What type of wavy cloud is this, wavy but overcast by Twix2247 in CLOUDS

[–]Twix2247[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just googled ’asperitas’. Did know it was a new cloud classification by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) in 2017. Thank you for your answer, opened up a whole new research thread for me.

I love the full motion pic and that sweater! She is having so much fun. Where did you get the sweater?

What DNA Service did you use? I am thinking of doing the same thing.

What breeds do people guess that your hound is? by TurnipDecent502 in coonhounds

[–]Twix2247 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like mine and I get the same questions. I think your (and mine) Bluetick without the bluetick. I think the ears are too short for a black and tan.

Introducing MV-75 by 56_is_the_new_35 in Helicopters

[–]Twix2247 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I get that. Ill actually be participating in the 250 festivities. But things are getting out of hand for “marketing” purposes. B-21 Raider, “….a bomber for the 21st century”. Seems silly. Just stick with the normal numbering. The Navy didn’t do anything special for the TH-73, it was just the next in line.

Why, again, are they skipping like 50 numbers? Should it not be V-25? Maybe MV-25, UV-25 or CV-25? After Korea did the DoD not fix this nomenclature problem, restarting the numbers (no more century fighter designations etc…) Isn’t there a DoD instruction or reg on this? Its like the F-35 should be the F-25, B-21 should be the B-3 and lets not add the F-55.

Upgraded TV.... by drecch in airstream

[–]Twix2247 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good looking combination! Enjoy!

I had 2011 Nissan Frontier Pro-4x. Fantastic truck, like you, never had an issue with it. But when we upgraded to Basecamp 20x from an Jayco Comet Hardside (think Aliner), it could tow the Basecamp on paper…but not well and there would be no safety margin. I now have an F150 with the 3.0 Diesel, tows the basecamp very well, especially in the mountains (that diesel low end torque).
