Great thread Redfrog !! I totally agree that we should be able to have our Dogs accompany us while Mountain Hunting. Yes there also has to be rules that our Dogs have to obey and its our responsibility they do so.
TJ i appreciate your voice in supporting the use of Dog's in the Mountains!
What does Jet actually pack? It looks like there's still room in his bags.
What in general would most pack Dog's carry besides their own food and water..
While scouting in the Kootenays last Summer in Grizzly country ,and yes we saw Grizzlies there, we had Greg's Lab, Luke with us as well as other means of defending ourselves should the need arise.
Fast forward to the end of Sept and Luke accompanied us while Goat hunting in BC. Austin had a box made for his quad that Luke used for the long travel to the top of the mountain then we walked and glassed the ridgelines.
I have not had the opportunity to have the Springer accompany me on any Mountain hunts but he does come along on summer Hike-in fishing trips and Hikes in general. His other talent is fetching a " Cold Beer " at the end of the day's Hike !! Talk about Man's best friend !!
