Waited til 11:30 to drop tonight. Let go at the west end of the schoolhouse section. Sam opened right away and ran a track for about 5 minutes. He finally just gave up on it. Several dogs have done the same thing right there already this fall. I walked him in the direction of th woods to the south......
He took off & I heard him locating in a few minutes. He was moving & I couldn't figure out what he was doing til I got close. There was a fence there & he was running back and forth. I could see coons up on the other side so I crossed and called. It wasn't much of a fence but Sam seemed scared of it. I went back and made him cross. He took off & treed in a few minutes. It was a coon farther back in the woods that I wouldn't have seen if he hadn't treed it. Well he trees nice and hard, but what a puppy stunt at the fence. We'll have to work on that a little.
