Another story of mouth. DTA's Ch. Charlie. We were walking down a long dirt road with pastures on both sides. The snap hook on the lead broke and he made a 50-60 yard sprint, under the fence and latched onto a goat. It took us a minute or so to get over the fence and to him. We broke him off and headed for the truck. We carried him home and went back to pay for the goat.

Paid $150 for a busted up goat. We brought him home and put him down. As we skinned him the teeth marks looked amazingly similar to buckshot when skinning a dear. Holes were as big as a #2 pencil, the black blood had formed around the hole, the swelling had set it along with deep bruising. It looked awful on the inside.

On a mouth scale of 1-10 Charlie was a 7, an 8 would be stretching it. So if I factored in those freaks graded 9-10.

Then to think these dogs scratch back to this for hours on end. Amazing creatures.
