In this heartfelt episode of the Standing Stone Podcast, Charles and Mike Neiduski unpack the emotional side of bird dog life—why we hunt, why we train, and why we keep showing up long after the birds are gone.From the early days of chasing limits to the deeper meaning found in memories, legacy, loss, and friendship, Mike shares how writing, dogs, and the outdoors became his outlet for grief and growth. Whether you're a bird hunter, a dog trainer, or someone who simply loves the bond between humans and dogs, this is an episode that will speak to your soul.🐾 Navigating grief through bird dogs and storytelling📸 The power of nostalgic rituals—guns, feathers, old shirts, and truck dashboards📝 How writing became therapy, preservation, and purpose🎯 Chasing wild birds vs chasing limits—what changes over time🦴 Honoring the legacy of lost dogs and old friends🔥 Hunting as connection: tradition, camaraderie, and camp cultureThis isn’t about how to shoot more birds—this is about why it matters.🎧 Subscribe and support the podcast: https://patreon.com/standingstonekennelsSend Us Mail5919 W Pleasant Valley RdPretty Prairie, KS 67570LinksStep-By-Step Dog Training Course: https://www.standingstonesupply.com/coursesJoin our Patreon Community - https://bit.ly/SSK-PatreonOur Store - https://bit.ly/SSK-StoreSocial MediaFacebook: www.facebook.com/StandingStoneKennelsInstagram: www.instagram.com/standingstonekennels/Website: www.standingstonekennels.comEthan and Kat Pippitt are the proud owners of Standing Stone Kennels.
