This isn't my dog but a friend of a friends....The dogs went to a bay and could tell by the Garmin something was wrong with one of them. The pup was going the opposite direction of the bay. Well as the dog was coming up. I was wondering why it had a brown paper bag in its mouth..These pictures are with half the quils pulled out...I felt so bad for the dog...
went out to hood hunt some spots I haven't been on in awhile. Hooded 4 dogs. bout half a mile into it dogs strike and go a hundred yards and strike not 5 secs after that I had 3 dogs bayed solid. started in with the catch dog seen what looked like a piggy area so I cut the catch dog. never heard a hit but could hear some grunting. got in there in the cat tails reached down to find legs and found out real quick it was no hog. Got ourselves a freakin' porcupine. I was so freakin' mad. got all the dogs back to the truck and my bay dogs only had a few quills in 'em. catch dog was pretty covered I imagine well over a hundred. Got her good to where they weren't bothering her and kept hunting but ended the night dry. pulled about 20 more quills when we got back to the house. Very interesting and a lot of lessons learned on this hunt. Sorry no pics. phone was back in the truck.
