Road Hunting

 We usually do what is called "road hunting".  We drive down forest roads and the dogs run in front of the pickup truck.  When they ear, smell, or see a squirrel they jump about 3 feet in the air and bound off toward the target.  We stop the truck and wait for them to bark treed.  We don't rush to the tree.  We give the dogs time to "settle" on the tree and give a strong barking signal.  At this time we park and go to the tree.
