You see that is the kinda crap that I hate. Same happened to me this spring but my dog had a name plate and the sorry sob that ended up with her never called and even hunted her the 2 nights he had her. If you see a dog that is a hunting dog and it has a tracking collar leave it alone, someone is looking/tracking it, dont pick it up and take it home. Glad you are getting you pup and equipment back, you got lucky this time probilly wont turn out like that again. My faith in honest people is just about shot, Its very sad.
