The other night my phone rang and it was my 'ol buddy the Gray Fox, livin' large and just polishing off a bear claw and a cup 'o mud.
We chatted for a bit and then he got down to business, the reason for the phone call. "Dawg", he said, "I need to buy a dog off you. This is what I'm looking for. I need a dog that is broke off deer and elk, can drive a 2 day old track and stay with it all day long, or can jump on a hot track, jerk the slack out of it and run it down. The dog has to have hard feet that will hold up day in and day out in the rocks, and I need a cold nose that can rig a 2 day old bear track off the shale rock. It has to be a hard hard tree dog, never break tree and won't ever growl or fight with other dogs. I have $1,200 bucks in my pocket and I ain't afraid to spend it. Can you help me out?"
I thought for a minute and then told him, "Gray Fox, you are in luck. I have just the dog for you. He is broke off deer, elk, moose, skunks, porcupine, coyotes and monkeys. If he opens his mouth, you are either on a bear, lion or a bobcat. He will drive a 3 day old lion track on bare ground and you'll grow old waiting for him to quit the track. You better give all your other dogs a half mile head start on a hot track and tell 'em to wave at him as he comes past. He'll see 'em again when they get to the tree he's slobbering under. His feet are so hard he'll trail a lion across hot molten lava and not feel it. His feet will hold up for about 2 steady weeks of hunting, but then you'll probably have to rest him a day. He'll rig a bear out of the canyon they are in, and hell that dog will rig a bear in the canyons they are headed to and haven't even made it there yet!! You could tunnel through the mountain to the tree with a pick 'n shovel and he'll still be there slobbering and pounding it!! And cold nose? Hell, his nose is so cold other dogs sit down when he comes around!! Won't growl at another dog, but he'll latch onto a bears ass and hang on while the bear climbs the tree. You'll come into the tree and see a bear sitting up there with a hound dog hanging from it's ass. It's a nice dog and I'd probably let him go for $800 bucks."
"Wow", said the Gray Fox, "are you kidding me?"
I responded, "Ya, actually I am kidding but you started it."
