Ever take your best friend out on the Line?
« on: April 17, 2019, 11:05:45 AM »
Growing up on the Trapline my best friend used to tag along with me after school, as I checked my traps.
I would tie him to a bush as we approached a set and he let me know he was not happy with me about the whole thing.
 Releasing his toe one day from a  #0 Victor Leg Hold at a weasel set, I didn't have to tie him up anymore as the experience was all the Education he needed when I told him to "Stay Here!"  :chuckle:

My Aussie goes on my trapline for 10 years now and doesn’t effect catching cats or marten !
He’s a good dog to take along
