In this episode, we sit down with Haley Veibell, a woman Oregon upland hunter whose story weaves together family tradition, perseverance, and a deep love for bird dogs. From childhood pheasant hunts with her family’s chocolate lab, Kokoa, to chasing chukar across rugged cliffsides with her Wirehaired Pointing Griffon, Winston, Haley has built a life rooted in connection to the land, her dogs, and her father.
Through serious health challenges and slow seasons, Haley’s journey reminds us that the hunt isn’t just about the birds; it’s about patience, resilience, and the moments that shape us along the way. Tune in as Haley shares stories of public land adventures, lessons learned from her dogs, and how she brings that same spirit of care and dedication to her work supporting foster children.
