233. The ‘New’ Respiratory Illness & Porcupines!

Seth Bynum (@birddogvet) joins us to discuss everything porcupine related. Unfortunately, something you can count on hearing every hunting season are stories of dogs encountering porcupines. Some instances are worse than others but one thing holds true with all of them, you better be prepared with the right approach and equipment or else it can make for a really long and painful day in the field!

Also, what is this mysterious respiratory illness going around in the country? Do we know anything about it at this point? Should we be concerned?

Highlights:

• Overview of the current respiratory illness situation
• The first step in an encounter remains "self preservation"
• Common myths around porcupines
• Tools to carry in the field with you
• The worst incident Seth has dealt with.
