Why I love my Dog

[Vince1]

Went scouting this weekend and was on the fence about taking my dog.

 

Wife made me take her but honestly I love having the company. problem is I didn't see one deer but saw plenty of deer sign, poop and what I think were beds. not exactly sure though.

 

so we get to the top of a hill and start to make our way out through some pretty thick brush and my new garmin etrex 20 gets snagged on a tree and the lanyard pops. I don't realize it till we get back to the trail about 70 yards or so away when I go to check my bearings.

 

I start to damn near give up and call it a day knowing my wife wont allow me to spend any more money on hunting gear. so I decide to go back and look for it but have no idea how cause it all looks the same, I find where we exited and tell my dog to go. she immediately starts following the trail we walked with ease and I use toilet tissue to mark where we look, I circle the area using the tissue as a guide and my dog leading the way, she keeps walking me back to this same deer spot that I took a photo of so I use that as a guide and backtrack to the last place I marked with the etrex. after we circle a bit more she sits about about 10 feet away from the garmin

 

I LOVE MY BABY

 

this is the second time she saved my but in the woods, we go DEEP
