Double U Hunting Supply

Introducing kids to hounds is something that is second nature to us at this point. Dustin and I got our first hound shortly before we got married so our kids have never known life without a dog. Our preference is to start them as puppies, but we have had our share of buying older dogs too. We love getting a...

So you just got a new puppy, congratulations! But now what? Where do you start with training and how do you start? You’ve heard of kennel or crate training but it seems so mean and scary toleave an 8 week old puppy in a kennel all alone! Or you’ve found out that your puppy isn’t a big fan of crate...

I was always that kid that would return from a walk with my pockets overfull with treasures and my backpack the same. I suppose these deep embedded habits have led me to the desire to create and utilize the animal from our hunt in a variety of ways. The coyotes we kill in Southern Ontario with the hounds are no exception. The farm...

On the surface trapping a raccoon doesn’t seem like an incredibly hard thing to do and with a few tips, it certainly won’t be. The first thing you need to do is check your state's laws in regards to trapping, as well as setting an animal loose once trapped. Most states have a designated trapping season where you are allowed...

You're walking into what you assumed was your everyday bear tree when you hear the dreaded sound of dogs squealing and yelping in pain. Not one, but multiples. Your heart sinks and adrenaline kicks in as you sprint to your dogs. Your worst nightmare unfolds as the bear battles your hounds, standing his ground, swatting with his powerful paws and...

Dog tracking technology has progressed miles in just a few short years. Houndsmen raised with simple radio tracking antennas and jury-rigged shock systems are now using advanced software interfaces and satellite tracking, designed in Silicon Valley by people with degrees in subjects we can't even pronounce. But houndsmen are still always on the lookout for ways to enhance their experience...

Everyone wants that perfect dog.  That dog that listens the first time they’re called.  That dog that sits patiently at the door and waits to be let out.  That dog that doesn’t bolt at the first sign of freedom.  And that dog that is walking nicely on a lead and not dragging the handler around.  Here are some things I do with my dogs to...

It will not be long now until we find ourselves loading up our dogs and gear into our vehicles and setting off into the horizon with our destination being the uplands. Upland hunting experiences begin opening up early as September when the temperature is nearly as high as our eagerness to get back out on the hunt with our dogs. Seasons will...

The DC50 collar has been discontinued by Garmin and is now only available used. However many houndsmen, especially those hunting with a buddy or in a group with mixed systems, still have fully functioning DC50 collars they would like to continue using in the field. Officially, DC50 units are considered incompatible with Alpha 100 and Alpha 200i handhelds as they...

TT15/TT15X Track and Train collars, like other Garmin tracking collars, utilize a light system to indicate the status of the collar. We get quite a few collars in that customers claim have lost GPS, only for us to start them up in-shop and see them work right out of the box. If a problematic collar is still under warranty, it's...
