RE: Dogs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think you could find the owner pretty easily. If they are ruining your hunt, walk out of the woods and take a drive. Or have a friend/family take a drive. Figure they've already scared what would be coming through, so your done right? Look for a truck with a topper on it, or a small trailer about the size of pop up thats used for hauling dogs. Or if you want to, look online for pictures of what one would look like so you know what your looking for. Its not hard to determine what kind of vehicle is hauling dogs. If they are hounds they are going to need something good sized to haul a number of dogs with so try it.
They are not that hard to find. Most folks stopwhere they can, and unload the dogs to hunt. They also are not going to just stop anywhere because it can be difficult to find your vehicle with tired dogs in the middle of the night after a hard run after ringtails. Find the vehicle, find the hunters. Leave them a note, or wait them out and talk to them. See who your dealing with before you go and start dropping coon dogs.
As passionate as you obviously are about your hunting, these hunters are about theirs. You start dropping dogs and you have to deal with the reprocussions of your actions. Law may be on your side but you dont want to make enemies right or wrong.
