Grizzlies and hounds.

[DBM]

Hey guys,

A question for you hound hunters. What do you do if your dogs end up on a Grizzly? I just got a call from a friend of mine who's dogs took off and are hot on the heels of a large grizzly (obviously unintentional). The bear takes a few strides and takes a swat, takes a few more strides and takes another swat.

He thinks he's going to lose a dog or two. I'm curious as to what you think he can do?

BTW this grizzly is not far from Eastgate.

any bear (black or grizz) can kill a hound all the bear has to do is focus on one dog at a time or take advantage of a carless hound .
I think that all he can hope for is his hounds are smart enough not to get tagged to bad . Did he actually see the bear? ..

Barracuda, check your PM's

How did it all work out ?

[WoodOx]

Aye, hopfully no dead hounds. Any pictures?

You guys that do have hounds, do you hunt cougars often, and if so, where?

[Barracuda]

The hounds were retrieved intact .

Great News, and yes, there are Griz in that area. They ought to be in a real pissy mood after the upset from that fire. Fred
