For the same reasons you guys have stated I’ve obly brought a gun once while hunting and even then it was just a single shot slug gun. But lately Ibe been kicking myself for not having one. I’ve came across a few sounders moving out of the way of my bulldogs and they’re not afraid of people at all. I literally had to bark at them to make them see me as danger and to avoid me. One day I’m going to run across onevfhat barking at is just going to add some speed to.
