They are very good at staying on a trail, or navigating back on a bushwhack - but if there is water nearby, we are out of luck. They always run to water! All bets are off for staying on trail.Trekker Doghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04603967375761688918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6493199320767949711.post-38390566292925782212015-05-10T17:54:32.894-07:002015-05-10T17:54:32.894-07:00On more than one occasion I have sent my dog ahead...On more than one occasion I have sent my dog ahead of me with, "let's go home!" and he finds our way back to the truck. And when I come upon a creek crossing that looks a little rough, I send him first. That he hates to get wet helps because he'll find the easiest way across though it may take him some time.<br /><br />On one trip though we crossed a creek while he was coming up behind us. He decided his best option was a large tree angled over the creek. What he didn't realize was a) it didn't go all the way across and b) there was no room to turn around. Hilarity ensued, at least among us humans. Jeff Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15506185207312726175noreply@blogger.com
