Crappie fishermen save 38 hound dogs from drowning. We know they're not "crappy" fisherman!




Some fishermen in Mississippi came upon a pack of 38 hound dogs who were drowning in a lake after chasing a deer into the water. I owned a Redbone Coonhound named "Dixie" for 12 years, and I know personally that when they're on a hunt, their ears are shut! It took these guys several trips to save the entire pack, but they did! There's so much good in the world, if you're willing to look.

"They hadn’t been on the lake for long when they noticed a mass of dogs swimming near the middle of it. Chrestman drove his boat over to find dozens of hounds swimming in circles. Each dog wore an e-collar and had a number painted on its side, and the fishermen later learned that the hounds had been participating in a fox hunt in Grenada. The pack chased after a deer that ran into the lake. Gist said the dogs were at least a mile from shore, and he guessed they’d been treading water for at least 45 minutes to an hour."
