How many of you check your dog over during, and especially after the hunt, and what do you do? Gunnar is just about 9, and before we go I give him a Novox 75 mg ( Vetprofen/dog pain pill). During the day I always watch him to see how he is acting, (after 9 years I can tell when he is having issues). Today when we got home, I sat him down in front of me, and took Q-tips, and cleaned out the little kochia, canola, foxtail grass seeds out from his eyes, and ears. Had quit a few in his eyes. (Make sure you roll the upper and lower eye lids back, to check underneath them). I check his paws for cuts, and stickers\thorns. Beings he is a house dog (he has the run of the house, he lays on the bed and floors, no furniture) his chest/belly is bald, so I check that over. Before I go o bed he gets another pain pill. Remember to have a first aid kit in your hunting vehicle for you, or that special hunting partner, incase you need it while out hunting.
