Just got back home from Up North putting up deer stands...the wife tells me our Yellow Lab has been missing since Saturday Morning.

We live on the east side of Foley near Hwy 23. Our dog is named Daisy and she has a green/brown collar with brass hardware. She did have a name tag with all of our info...it is my hope that the tag may have come off and someone has her and will see this.

She is 20 monthes old...she is the dog that I promised a pup to Bowser up near Spring Lake after they lost thier dog to a wolf attack. Like all family pets...she is important to us.

Please call me if you have any info on her.

I'm asking the obvious but have you called the Sheriff, Vets, and whatever type of animal control you have there and left your contact info.

Fliers at the local stores and gas stations.

You might need to get that info out in the neighboring counties as well.

Good Luck!

Update...forgot post this.

We found Daisy...or I should say my old Golden, Sandy led us to her. It appears Daisy escaped from her kennal...my responsibility, and made her way to a near by property. We found her dead underneath a scrubby pine about 150 yards from his property.

It appears she had two gunshot wounds in her front quarters. The property owner had admitted two years ago to shooting another dog who was "near" his property. This guy has no livestock, no domestic pets, no children and has a small seasonal place located near public hunting land...why shoot a dog. When he was asked if the previous dog he shot was chasing deer, he said "No, I just did not like it."

I certainly feel responsible for the kennal...I guess the wire chain link included was not up to a frisky lab. But I feel worse for this guy who will never experience the honor of being owned by a great little pup.

RIP Daisy

Very sorry to read this Steve, I was hoping Daisy would just show up someday back at her home with her family. It's sickening to know there are people out there like this a-hole who would shoot a dog. Sad thing is, theres more like him. Such a waste. I hope the many good memories you made with your little Lab girl can get you through this tough time. Rest in peace Daisy.

I'm very sorry for your loss. My dad had a brittany pup that someone poisoned in the early 80's before i was born. It still makes him well up to talk about it to this day. Some people have no respect for life. I don't know how you feel because i have only lost a dog to old age and not meanness. But again I am so sorry for your loss. I'm sure she is living it up in doggy heaven with all the fields and marshes in the world to run. My condolences.

Sorry for your loss. Its tough too loose a dog/friend/family member.

We are in the same position. We lost our Brittany Spaniel 1 week ago and he hasnt been found since. With the extremely cold weather, I can only assume the outcome is not good.

I guess this thread is a few weeks old. I would call the local sheriff's department and tell them your story. Not because you can do anything about it, but they should know they have a citizen who is willing and eager to kill people's dogs at the slightest provocation.

People inclined to do things like this sometimes end up being involved in far more tragic situations.

Like I say, you can't file a complaint I guess but you should let local law enforcement know about it.

And I am sorry you lost your dog. It always hurts.

      If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.

      Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...

      Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?

      New boat question

      By Crow Hunter · Posted

      We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
