I understand now, just never seen or heard of it down here in Florida. I guess it might be a bird dog thing but I've never been around the bird dog sport so I don't know.....I would just rather my dogs run the animal they are trained to run and not worry about the snakes. We have dogs get bit all the time but that's just part of it. Usually a dog gets bit after a hog or deer run through a palmetto thicket or what have you and fires the snake up and then the dogs come through on the track and that's when they get hit. Kinda something you can't avoid in my mind. He'll I bust off in the bushes after the dogs and ya snakes are on my mind but I damn sure ain't gunna stop going because I smell one or think there may be one in the next bush.

I understand the concept just wouldn't expose my dogs to that kind of breaking. Don't want them having that on their mind and then have them quit a track or foul them up running a big buck or something like that.


To each his own. All I know is the first 15 yrs I hunted in S Texas I had 5 dogs bitten. After I started desnaking I have not had a single bite and I still catch plenty of pigs.
