A few times he gets there before I do and the fox doesn't come out of it so well. Same with raccoons and woodchucks but he's learned his lesson with skunks and yotes. We train almost everyday. It makes a difference. Funny story about the pic below and the yellow lab. He was less than a year old when this pic was taken. I had a snare hung on each of the two tracks of the tractor trail running across this field. Boomer and I got out of the truck and I had him walk at heel up to the cabled fox. We got about fifteen feet away and Boomer couldn't take it anymore. He broke from heel and rushed the fox. I yelled "SIT" the same instant he hit the other cable and almost did a back flip when he ran out of slack. He looked amazed. I guess he didn't realize I could stop him on a dime with just a word. LOL I took the pic after I released him and told him to sit. He's looking a little sheepish. He was a good boy the rest of the day. Eh...wot?

I started her out in warm weather in a lake frist having fun then setting and not moving while I fish. No matter where you go there you are.

I can do that no problem she sure hates the neighbors cat and them bunnies at the bird feeder drive her crazy those critters she will chase, I can’t wait for her reaction to the first jackrabbit that pops up she might go the other way.

Could there possibly be any House Dog genes in there? Like, is that even genetically possible? I know wolves and fido's can reproduce. Guessing 'yotes can? All that aside; Dogs have simply always been a part of me. I don't get out trapping anything any more. But, these little pair of weird things keep me, and themselves, amused. There's about a century old rodent hole down there, beside my bed. I leave it there, out of respect for the memory of the place. Watching the 'Pit Whippets' listening to activity in the stone built walls still amuses me though! Hear That? Yeah! I Hear It!

If youve trapped much with drags you've had one pack a trap further than expected and wasted time looking. Dogs have to be interested in your catches to be worth a (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman). A good dog will save a ton of time looking for lost equipment. Guess it wouldn't help much marten and squirrel trapping or whatever you do in the Frozen North.

Typical missinformed statement, the dogs are not used to harrass the catch, I would never allow it, It is actually a question. Feel free to replace the word "harass" with any of the below similar words, if it makes you feel better. Similar: pester badger hound harry plague torment bedevil persecute bother annoy exasperate worry disturb trouble agitate provoke vex stress stress out nag keep on at chivvy tease bait molest hassle bug Last edited by Dirt; 01/30/21 03:12 PM.
