Hazel specializes in treeing animals and will climb them herself (too high for my comfort!) when she feels compelled to do so. <br /><br />If the "hunted" animal is in plain sight, her job is done. In fact, she's probably wondering why her humans aren't doing <i>their</i> part! If I were a hunter trying to shoot something, I certainly wouldn't want my dog in the way. Another reason for the dog to hang back when the prey is in plain sight.<br /><br />Once again, the animal is smarter than their human ;)RuckusButthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14760056031442317243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2146995948798827920.post-80676529842625518222011-04-06T12:46:45.314-04:002011-04-06T12:46:45.314-04:00I just love her!
