Another good reason not to get near Clinton!
You need not be a jagular to do remarkable feats of daring.
I have a dog that’s 3/4 Australian Cattle Dog (blue heeler) and one quarter border collie just to calm him down. One night I heard a ruckus and he was lunging at an intruder in our basement. That young man ran out the back door like the hounds of hell were chasing him. My hero then went into his doggie bed under the corner table and absolutely nothing would get him out from under there. Dogs are amazing.
Good dogs!
We have a border collie and she’s a wonderful dog. Sweet as she can be but also very protective of us. She’s also big for the breed. She liked cat food a lot better than dog food, which has 3x the protein, so instead of mid to upper 40’s she’s pushing 70 lbs without an ounce of fat on her!
Border Collies can be insanely feisty. So much so they could confuse something to death.
Thanks for the ping, George.
Black bears must have a tendency to bite people in the butt when they go after them.
A cousin of mine in So OR had hounds for hunting cougar and bear before it was outlawed in OR. In the off season he would take the dogs out and run a cat or bear to keep the dogs in condition.
He took his son who was about 12 at the time with him and the dogs treed a bear. He leashed the dogs and told his son to head them back to the truck. As soon as they were a ways away that bear came down out of the tree and was after my cousin, he said he didn’t get far and the bear had him and bit him in the butt. He was hollering for his son to loose the dogs and fortunately his son heard him and did.
He didn’t get hurt other than a few punture wounds like this guy got but his pride was hurt, he didn’t like to talk about it. lol
Brings back impeached ex-president Clinton/Monica memories. Near Clinton. Bit in the behind isn't sexual relations.
The bear must not have heard the joke.
Another wonderful doggie story of the day.
Does he have two butts?
In Bear territory you go hiking with dogs or friends you can outrun..
Good puppyping?
Those little bells are important. When you're in bear country, it's important to keep those little bells on you, in order to be sure you don't surprise a bear. But sometimes the unexptected happens, and you need to defend yourself, which is why you should carry pepper spray. But most important of all is situational awareness. You need to know if you're in bear country or not. And you do that by checking for "scat," or bear dropping. How do you identify bear droppings? They're the droppings with the little bells in them, and they smell like pepper spray!
