nubo said you can't eat groundhogs, he doesn't know what he's missing. If they are cooked right and you can get past the smell, you've got it licked. I'm going to be hunting dogs pretty soon. I was working on my barn at my new place last evening and saw 6 dogs running around together on my property. They probably wouldn't hurt anybody but with 2 young boys that will be playing in the woods, I'm not going to give them the chance. If people really loved their pets they would keep track of them.
