S1 Ep 224224. Wick's Camo Jug

In this's weeks episode I am pulling a crowd favorite from the vault that was with Terry Carr. Terry Carr owned the famous Leopard Wick's Camo Jug long before his rise to fame at the end of John Wick's lead. Terry tells the story of how he found Jug and how he inevitably sold him to John. We talk about the leopards, the hunts and a few other dogs along the way that Terry has had during his tenure as a coon hunter but we kept circling back to Jug. Jug has certainly made his mark on the leopard breed and it was about time I was able to uncover some first hand knowledge on him Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://www.facebook.com/p/Animal-Housing-Solutions-Inc https://fullcrymag.com Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@TreeTalkinMedia https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia
