Been coonhunting for about 12 years and have never had a dog get caught in a trap till this year. Had two dogs get caught in the past month. Luckily both where okay and didn't hurt them.

Its a bad deal. I just wish the would post signs up. If they would, I'm sure most of us would never go in there! Hope you're dogs okay.

If a trapper put up signs. He would get traps stolen.

Odds are he would get busted for trespassing.

They have the same rights as we do. I had two young dogs in snares few weeks ago and just about lost one. I wish they would have told me but wasn't mad. And why would your dog stop by a trap site when it should have been hunting?

Maybe! But if it was the same hound 3 times the elevator cant go to the top floor, even a fox learns what is in the dirt if it gets hair lipped by one.

A pair of cable cutters is standard hunt issue with the couple of guys I hunt with. They all know how to work coils and conis with their hands. It is a risk and like any other, be prepared for it. Even hunting private grounds is no guarantee as dogs don't know property lines.

One of many reasons I like hunting out of season better these days.
