Lucky dog
« on: December 15, 2013, 05:07:20 PM »
We'll I don't usually post on here but this story is crazy enough that I have to share it.
At 3:30 this morning the wife and I were woke up by a really annoying whine and naturally we assumed the mother in law's beagle found her way back to our door, so the wife gets out of bed to let her in but when she gets to the back door instead of a little beagle she finds about a 120 pound cougar on top of our lab. So naturally after hearing the Screaming from my wife COUGAR! And it has Shea (our lab) I managed to find the 9mm, loaded it go to the back door and sure enough this kitty thinks he is eating Labrador for breakfast but not on my watch. So I throw open the door and take aim ( from inside the house of coarse because I'm not that brave) and click crap must have been a bad round so re cock, take aim and click CRAP!! Now mad, nervous, and about to wet my self I realize the clip was not locked all the way in so I give it a smack re cock take aim and bam. Good news the cat drops the dog and the dog runs off, bad news now the pissed off and hurt cat is 25 feet away looking at me, so I took real careful aim and was able to put the second round in the forehead dropping the cat for good. So I call the game dept. and they come do there investigation and take the cat, I asked the officer if I could keep the cat since I had a cougar tag and he said the biologist would call me and let me know, but much to my pleasure he called me a few hours later and told me I could come get my cat. The dog is fine a few stitches and a drain tube. What a crazy day!

Nice job on another deer killer down!  :tup:

How did you train that Beagle to run cats to your door?  :chuckle:

That's so intense! Glad it turned out ok. Looks like a big cat too. Never had to use this but was taught by a police officer that if your gun doesn't fires you always "tap then rack".
