Took Nitro to the vegetable garden. I walked him to the ditch so that I'd be sure he'd go north. He was excited & walking made it worse. He may have babbled when I finally let him go, hard to tell though as he had a track going pretty quick too. He ran a nice track, got quiet for a second then located and treed. He didn't sound too sure at first but really settled in as time passed. He had the coon. He wanted to pull on the way back to the truck so I whacked him with a corn stalk a few times. He was walking like a champ by the time we got back to the truck. He's a little rough around the edges but... he seems to have all the raw material. So far I love that voice and the way he moves a track.
