A vacationer has seen and fed a female Walker with tracking collar at Clingmans Dome parking area in Great Smoky Mountains national park and is postingpix of it it on Facebook. The dog was skittish and he couldn't catch it to read the collar, but she looks young to me. The dog was first seen on Saturday October 3. Check it out on Facebook here:

The vacationer posted as Alan Minga.
If you think you might know whose dog it is, let them know it is hanging around near the parking area:

that's what I figured. I did cross post to the biggamehounds.com board, but I figured someone here might recognize the individual hound or know people who bear hunt in the area. The tracking collar has probably lost its charge by now. No one is intentionally hunting bears in a National Park, so she probably comes from beyond the collar's range as well.
