If they were my dogs i bring 2 that survived and would get them baying while a couple of buddies with AR's stacked them like cord wood.

Would a hound bay at a house cat?
No problem asking questions but go back and read your guys post and you were throwing the BS flag long before asking any questions. That's what irritated me, not so much that you were asking for details, but that you just dismissed this story right from the get go and we all know your thoughts on wolves. I think this is a good lesson to hold fire you get more details.
I never called BS. I asked for verification.
Just pointing out that dogs kill more farm animals and domestic animals than wolves do.
I have owned, bred, and hunted hundreds of hounds in multiple western states since the 70's. I have never heard of three dogs (hounds) freezing in the winter, never. We've been hound hunting in -10 to -20 temps the last few weeks and not one dog even cares about the temps. Simply put, hounds live outside year around and do not freeze to death. I find it amazing that people who know nothing of what they talk about would stoop to the level of basically calling someone a liar who has lost their dogs to wolves. But, as we all know, wolf lovers will go to any extent to promote wolves, another case in point.
Seems like maybe hunterman would come back on here and apologize. Maybe that's too much to expect.

To say that "wolf lovers" will go to any extent to promote wolves is painting a broad stroke across a complicated set of folks. I do have a question about hounds that relates specifically to WA: Knowing that wolves in some yet undetermined numbers are here to stay, if you could expand hound-hunting of cougars, would it be worth it to you knowing these kinds of conflicts would inevitably increase as a result?
