I'd hear him barking half a klick away and have to wait for him 5 or 10 minutes to return to me. He didn't like yotes either and he'd put the run on them as well but he'd stop once they turned tail. IMO He was well trained for what he was supposed to do and that is hunt birds but not suitable for accompanying me as a companion on a big game hunt.

My Britt to a tee. And my thoughts as well. That's just my dog though. Not saying others can't be well trained.
