DOGS

The coolest shot I ever made on a wolf was this one: buddy and I are checking his fields for whitetail deer in his truck. We are in a field, off the road. As we edge along we spy a wolf, not at all welcome in farm country. I roll down the window and put the scope on him. He is perhaps two hundred yards out, taking a dump, pushing for all he is worth and concentrating hard on the task at hand. I touch off the 30/06 and he simply tips over, dead. Not a twitch or kick, just tipped over like someone pushed a statue over. It was pretty cool.

Just cannot help myself.
Seems like you don’t follow the Marquis of Queensbury Rules very closely!
When shooting from the truck, did you have this sticker ‍‍➡️? We need a handicap sticker here.
Curiosity. My emojis didn’t show up.

But the rear view mirror makes a perfect rest. And it’s cold out there.
 
I can honestly say that I have never shot out of the cab of a vehicle. Have shot from the bed of the truck using the cab for a rest.
A guy i work with shot a hole in the floor a pickup. The owner took delivery of the truck Friday at noon and had a new hole in the floor Saturday at 2pm
 
In farm country it’s pretty common. You’re off the road, in a field that may be miles and miles of no cover, since by hunting season the fields have been harvested. There’s nothing taller than about four inches for miles around. The animals are used to combines and grain trucks going by. As soon as you stop they are watching. As soon as the door opens they are running. So you slowly roll the window down and if the driver isn’t a moron he has positioned the truck so that you rest on the rear view mirror.
Here in the far north you can hunt by headlight (not down a road) or use a spotlight since it’s too dark to shoot for most of our winter and people gotta eat.
 
Meet Elle! A miniature Aussie we just rescued.

Vet visit?
Vet visit went poorly. Our vet is gonna consult with an orthopedic surgeon in Vegas for course of action.. Looks a lot like she will lose the leg. It was savable if it had been tended to months ago, but......
An infection in the bone from exposure, rejecting her stainless plate. A new plate would also just get infected. Complicating things, she has hip dysplasia on her good leg.
Liz got pet insurance, but doesn't take effect, and pre-existing isn't covered.

Somehow I get the feeling her previous "owner" knows all this. Why the poor thing was walking the street.
 
I agree with Sahara,I would help. Sorry the visit did not go well. It breaks my heart when people dont give a shi- and the animal suffers. When I adopted Thor I believe the owner knew Thor had a torn ACL. Some vets surgeons will give you a deal if you tell them you are rescuing and keeping the dog. Call around.
 
If your really wanted to save her you would take that Vikings shirt off!:lol: What a little cutie.
Don’t really follow no fun football (joke), but our son is a fan of the Vikings.
We always cheered for the small teams underdogs. Hence Saskatchewan Roughriders ( which is going to the western CFL final on Saturday), and the Green Bay Packers. My first CFL game was about 1951, don’t really remember it.
 
I took this picture last summer but it's one of my favorites. Irving LOVES the pool and knows how to use pool noodles.
