Went too a good spot last night with a friend that has been catching a bunch of big boars! had a bay within twenty minutes so we sent the bulldogs to em and never herd any squeeling or grunting? thought it might be a good one went in some real thick plum thickets and seen the dogs faces covered in porcupine quills got the dogs off and had 4 dogs just covered in them gave them a shot of ace and pulled quills till 3 this morning! sure was a good way too ruin the hunt! any one else ever had this happpen?

I had that same thing happen a while back, had a bay, sent the cd, before I could get half way there the cd came running up to me with a mouthful of quills, then 3 of 4 dogs came by, all had a noseful. My lacy was yelping, barking, and growling. Get there and she is throwing up in the air and catching it! Pulled quills til the sun came up & then had to take her to the vet to get the ones way sown her throat! She was never very catchy at all, but on the way outta the ranch we caught a small boar and when my son and I walked up she was caught, quills and all!!!

I'm pretty sure they are the worst thing you can come across in the woods! What possess a dog to try and catch something that looks like they do will always amaze me...  |

I figured that but are they barbed, do you have to try to bend and push them through or do they come straight out?

If they are in a cheek or lip you might be able to push it through, but usually you have to pull them out the way they came in. I hate porky's with a passion, they're no good. They are hell on wheels with a calf or a foal.

 ?? You mean you don't have them where you hunt in Oklahoma. We caught 4 in one night one time. We've caught so many freakin' porcupines that it's hard to believe our dogs will still hit them, but they will...... every single time. |

T-Bob they have little bitty barbs like a fish hook and found the easiest way too pull them is with pliers and too jerk them straight out
