Spring Branch Fox Preserve had another great puppy hunt this morning. The weather was beautiful and the running was great. There was a good turnout with 58 pups entered in the hunt. Mr. Mark Martin would like to thank all the hunters and judges who came out to make the hunt a success. Thanks also to Pride dog feed and Showtime dog feed for helping with the hunt. It took 435 points to get in the top ten and the winning pup had 730 points. Congratulations to all the winners!
