About a week ago I was out for a dog walk. The dogs were in the hollow somewhere to the east of me. A woodpussy showed up in the woods about 40 yards ahead of me to the west, just moseying toward me. I slipped the .17 off my shoulder and centered him. What to do; if I shot, the dogs would be in in a flash. At about 30 yards his poor eyes noticed me (I guess he could only smell himself) and he turned and lifted his tail and proceeded to amble away. After a minute, the dogs came in to me and I collared them and we walked out of the woods. They got to stay in the house that night.
