Dogs not leaving a dead coon alone?
Posted: Mon Oct 27, 2014 7:46 pm
This weekend was the first time in a long time that I struggled with my pair of hounds to leave the dead coon alone. Even when walking out they kept taking nips at him.
Friday night they got tangled up in a field for a while with a larger coon. In the past they would just keep spinning the coon and when I would get there I could hold them back and shoot it. This coon would charge back offensively. Finally got the dogs off him and he made it to a tree.
Does anyone think this fight might of triggered these two to keep grabbing dead coon longer?
I always tie them off at tree. I turn them loose when the coon is down and dead. They never used to stretch it or chew long.
Thanks Allen
