Yup, grouse season is indeed here.
8000' feet up the mountain, blues flush from a downed giant dead Doug Fir, dog dives over the log, and F*$# -the yowling and screeching commences. Scarey moment.
Assess, pull wood from the wound, assess/treat, calm her down, and we gimp out, back down to the truck. Good thing I carry dawg 1st aid kit with AT ALL TIMES in the field. If ya don't, you ain't real bright. It is dicey out there.......
Blue Grouse hunting ain't for sissy dogs. three inch tunnel gouged through her arm, luckily no real serious damage. If it woulda' got her in the neck or gut...........
She hopefully should be back in the game in two weeks. She's a hurtin unit right now. Hunting season vet bills are awesome.
