The Frog Dawg
Had a good hunt with Frog tonight. Took her out alone. Cold and the wind was blowing, figured it would still be a good night with the weather coming in tomorrow.
Turned her off the lead, she went 30 yards or so and struck. She got it moving and hauled the mail. Treed at only 200 yards in a monster pine tree with grape vines in it. The coon finally gave me a look, so he rolled out of the tree on the second shot. Nice boar coon. Frog did a nice job on it.
Then led her up to the upper side of the farm and turned her loose. She struck a cold feeder track and worked it for over an hour. I slipped in on her to watch her and maybe search a few trees while she was working. While I was watching her tracker light, she hit up a big poplar tree, but she moved on. I looked up the tree but didn't see anything. About 20 minutes later, a coon looked at me from that tree.....lol. The coon had been laid up for quite a while I'm sure and there just wasn't hardly any scent on the tree for her to stick it. I guess I could have helped her, but I just sat on the ground and waited it out.
Anyway.....I enjoyed watching her work tonight and it's nice to sit and watch a young dog start figuring things out on their own. Sometimes the action is a little slower but well worth it in the end.
Frog is out of Haze and Noah's April female.
