Rescued a beagle & bagged a doe!!

Post by georgiaboy »

I was driving to my hunting area this afternoon in a light rain and found a male beagle standing in the middle of the road shivering like a freight train. :(
Since i'm 15 miles from any home and miles from the nearest paved road it's obvious some asshat just dumped him off. :evil: When i pulled over little man just ran over and jumped in my truck, curled up in a knot and went to sleep! :lol:
I drove on to my hunting spot...secured little man and made the 3/4 mile walk to my tree. The rain stopped about 5:00 and a few minutes later i had a small doe broadside at 28yds. I let her walk and ten minutes later a mature doe gave me a broadside at 30 yds. The vixen & the slick trick did their magic...double lung and a short blood trail. 8)
It took me over an hour to drag her back to the truck :shock: getting to old for this! :mrgreen: :lol:
The doe is in the cooler now...sorry the pics didn't turn out. :roll: It started raining on me again. Now i just have to find little man a home. :wink:
