hey all went out again and got 2 more so thats what 47 i believe well my highest # for 1 year was 2 years ago and had 113 for the season plus some cripples i couldnt find. the snow is helpful and ive found when hunting with my uncles dog if you take a seal skin sock the water proof ones and put a few slits in the top so you can tie it that it protects the dogs feet and keeps them warm and dry and i didnt really seem to bother th edog either.
