Comments

I wanted to verify Fritz's raccoon finding ability tonight. So, I went back to the spot where we had gotten one on Monday. Fritz again did well. I cannot say he treed them, but he did locate them in the trees for me.
The one I did shoot hit the ground alive. Well inexperienced Fritz flung himself into the business end of this very large and angry raccoon. Immediately Fritz was squealing in pain and back pedaling. Well this raccoon was attached to Fritz like a blood sucker attaches to a persons leg. After a few head shakes he was freed of this pain inflicting critter. Fritz kept his distance as I finished this fighter off.
I cannot wait to see how he reacts to his next encounter!
