We Finally Caught Him In The Trap But There's Still More Running Loose

We have been trying for sometime now to catch a wild dog in one of our traps along with a coyote and raccoons. Today was the day that we finally caught one and now it's time to figure out what we want to do with it. We are at the creek property trying to get things ready for a youth deer season coming up.

I think it's a good idea to dispatch them as you catch them.

[@susanblack7782]

Brandi, as a lady and mother myself, I have to compliment you on your ladylike and motherly demeanor.

[@RobertJones-ey9qz]

You said about the dogs eating corn. If you look at the ingredients of a lot of dry dog food, one of the first things listed is ground yellow corn. That's probably why they're eating it.

[@SharonJamison-ez9fp]

I would print photos of those dogs . Put the photos up in local stores and post office, even talk to your closes neighbors give them some photos and see if they've seen them or they may know who owns them.

[@bunnyhop1784]

Sean, you are a great example of a loving father and husband. I bet your sweet girls know they are blessed to have such a great dad. You remind me of my dad who fell asleep at 49 and I was 17. I'm now 70 and still miss him. Hoping for a great hunting season for you all. Hugs and love, Janet God wins in the end.

[@markbartholomew2016]

You might want to paint the inside of your blind a darker color so any movement will be less noticeable.

[@marushard4974]

Those things are like the American version of the Tasmanian Devil when cornered girls be weary ❤️

[@janellewatson1191]

Australian Tasmanian devil or American didnt no America had them

[@ronwig7665]

Dutch you got got some wonderful girls that helps you,brandie you taught them well

[@jimjustice581]

I saw your reindeer and elk😄😂🤣. Anyway, raccoons make good pets if you hand raise them from infancy. Otherwise, at that raccoon’s age, it would be too wild. I really enjoy your videos and how you’re raising your children. They will become self reliant and mature before their time. There’s not a problem with that! Also, it’s great that your wife supports you in all this. Keep ‘em coming. And, thanks. P.S. I love that tin cutter! Beats the ol’ tin snips.

[@user-uv8po8nw8d]

You might want to make flyers with pics of the dogs and take them to a few places in town

[@Jane_Dow]

Your going to need a bigger trap to catch those trespassers ! lol

[@luxiouslove7243]

You need to start marking them, by putting a Dot of pain on their backs. So, you will know you are not catching the same one over and over.

[@janetlynnspringer]

It’s great that you are teaching your girls to use tools. All the learning experiences you are giving them will benefit them for life.

[@donnawilmeth8674]

You definitely need to mark them if you’re going to release them so you’ll know if the same one is coming back.

[@juanitadafler7233]

The ideal distance to relocate a raccoon is 10 miles. Anything less than 5 miles, the raccoon will come back to their original location.

[@lindahipp8329]

Be careful with the raccoons they might have rabies. Good luck with the dogs. Unless animal control will come get them I don't know what to tell you to do. The deer blind looks good. How is Gabby doing, hope she's doing good with the treatment. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.

[@karencuster6030]

Dutch, you need to put a spot off spray paint on the raccoons as you catch them just to see if it is the same ones coming back. Different colors of course.

[@billyray6329]

At least you sent them off with a full belly😂😂

[@KeepingItDutch]

😂😂

[@sandymanning8744]

The girls are doing awesome on the blind. Good luck hunting this year. God Bless and I love y'all 💕💕💕

[@naomilarue4398]

When you catch and release, maybe tag them someway. Possibly a dye or safe paint. Then you'd know if they are coming back and need to be taken further away.

[@kimmontgomery54]

Sean, you’re an awesome Dad! The girls adore you! I don’t like the idea of letting the dogs roam your property! They could be feral and they could attack your kids or someone else! I don’t know what to do about them but I worry about them roaming. Love and blessings from this old Bama girl!❤❤❤

[@megslittlehouseinthecountry]

The racoon looks like he was regretting his decision to fall for temptation. Good luck trapping the dogs. The deer blind is looking like and abandoned haunted cabin, awesome! 💖💖💖

[@michaelchamberlain4618]

If you're there when it's raining the roof noise will scare the deer away

[@debrasix9690]

They will get used to it. Any time there is something different in the woods they get used to it.

[@leattaslone1800]

Great job everyone! You’re hunting cabin is awesome! You girls are beautiful!

[@roberto.peterson9917]

Use purple spray paint on tree trunks to mark your property many states use and reconnize purple paint marking as private property no trespassing

[@randycharest4507]

Enjoyed watching the video Dutch 😊

[@brendahogue5487]

May the lord bless and protect you and your family and the abandoned property

[@jennygabbard6421]

I vote this the BEST comment.

[@virginiacurrey2019]

The first blind looks great.. after spraying insulation I think you should paint the inside too.

[@donnaalford9880]

Hope will one day have a rescue farm!❤

[@poodleladylady5686]

I am a dog lover. I am a member of an AKC club, I am a tester/observer for Alliance Of Therapy Dogs, and nothing makes me angrier then irresponsible dog owners. I don't think it is fair that someone else's irresponsible behaviors should be your problem. I also do not think it is fair that someone else's irresponsible behaviors make these dogs suffer. The likelihood these dogs are loaded with heart worm and other parasites and diseases are so high. Even though I have unpopular beliefs, I do believe these dogs should be put out of their misery. I am only sorry that it is you that has to make those decisions. It truly isn't fair.

[@danm5076]

THEN GO GET THEM ALL PIEROD AND MY OPINION IS PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE PART OFF THE PROBLEMS WHY EVERYTHING IS SO OVER POPULATED...

[@kelmaeckhart4060]

100% put out of their suffering

[@joyames9236]

I agree with you 100%! These feral dogs are not a dog problem but a people problem and it’s impossible to fix!

[@lucyalderman422]

Told a friend about your situation with all of the stray dogs up here in Alberta Canada theres a government program to round up and remove stray wild dogs to keep you safe and your family safe please check with your government to see if there’s such a program down there

[@wearethemillers1659]

Contact the county to see if they have large traps for dogs. Our county, in Texas, has a nuisance animal department that will furnish large live traps for dogs or raccoons.

[@jaynebrandon7184]

Exactly Brandy I mean yeah somebody jumps out at them one of those You got to make choices Brandy is going to have to learn how to shoot I sure would have I was living out there just to carry it on you because you guys been lucky so far you know winners coming there was animals are going to want to eat

[@kimberlyhoward7896]

The hunting blind looks really good 😊! Young raccoon was definitely scared😳! On camera I didn’t hear the trespasser🤷‍♀️! But did you ever find out what the random blue colored thing was?? Stay careful out there and have fun 🤗🙏🏻💕!

[@meripederson8379]

Racoons can have rabies. Don't approach them as cute and cuddly, girls

[@TaylorLife248]

I'm pretty sure they know this!

[@angelawebb6987]

But it's good to remind them do the girls know there is definitely a real danger EVEN if it's not rabies.

[@Messymy]

They can have other things like distemper. Most places it is illegal to make them into pets.

[@dorarolfzen4132]

They will also bite your face off.

[@stevedoty5841]

Don’t just let him go. Dispatch him.

[@marybroussard043]

Hey Sean & Fam! Be careful out there…

[@janinecollins938]

❤ Hobart Tasmania Australia 🦘 watching this beautiful family ❣️

[@marygregory4316]

Wish I could the aford the trip to meet you I would take one for a play mate for my pup

[@jancohen2068]

You left the can half open. The lid could have cut him. Be careful Dutch

[@shermrock345]

It's a racoon. He should have shot it.

[@debrasix9690]

I don’t think he wants to shoot if he doesn’t have to and because of the girls. I would have.

[@marywest4174]

I glad you take the girls hunting!🥰

[@beegeecole]

Thank you for sharing your adventures with your girls and family. I so enjoy your channel. I, too, feel sorry for the dogs. It may save them from suffering if you dispatch them, as much as that breaks my heart, unless someone wants to adopt them.

[@kelmaeckhart4060]

I 100% agree DISPATCH them , would you let anybody starve their dog without reporting them ? Take them out of there pain, PLEASE

[@marshafredericksen3163]

There are animal rescues in every state that could find homes or sanctuary to save those dogs They are only trying to survive

[@gaylevincent2397]

Enjoyed everything and the property is looking great 👍 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@jeffglithero2895]

You need to paint the inside of the blind black. It will help so it is harder to see inside.

[@jennygabbard6421]

I didn't hear anything but I am in a wooded area myself. If I heard anything I would just think it was in my area. Lol. Nice of the girls to help with the build of their hunting shack.

[@JohnDuke3d]

Raccoons travel more than 3 miles. They travel 3 miles in city limits but in the wilderness they will travel 5 to 10 miles every night.

[@cybersal7]

It’s hard to see how those dogs survive the last couple of winters

[@AmandaDoll-hi4dr]

You do a good job with trapping the raccoons. Good luck, watch 4 🐍 🐍 🐍

[@earlshaner4441]

Good evening from Syracuse NY everyone thank you for sharing your adventures and your farm

[@aliasfred]

BANG! Problem solved. Little pests grow up to be a major pronlem.

[@tracinettles1368]

Do you not use purple paint on the boundary of your property? We live in TN near FT Campbell KY and purple is used to mark property boundaries here to ensure that you know to stay off someone’s land. Thank you for your service.

[@debrasix9690]

You tell him not to use purple paint to mark his land boundary but then you said down where you live they use purple paint to mark boundaries. So he should be able to.

[@lorrieroberts3007]

Hard call on what to do with the dogs, Yikes!! Do what feels right for you & your family to keep them safe. Nice to see the girls out there with ya working on the deer blind.. God Bless

[@alexshatzko1381]

what some people with acreage do is run a white string along the property border,, along with no trespassing signs 10 feet high on a big tree so it can be seen from a distance and no one can reach it to take it down.... good hunting and trapping.... in skokie land

[@sandeepettit696]

Once again A Beautiful video. Beautiful family. I love how you all feel together❤❤❤❤❤

[@elainepeterson475]

The Dear Blind is great! Happy hunting❤

[@daviddennis8310]

Nice blind! We always paint the inside of ours black and put camo netting over the windows, helps to hide movement while still giving good visibility. And a roof of course.

[@Lmsb2517]

Hi I've been watching your channel since you helped Lester. It's different but a good concept. On your little hunting cabins what about getting some hinges and more tin and covering your windows to keep the rain and snow out. When you're hunting you can hook them down on the outside wall till you're finished. Just thinking about how to preserve your building for a lot more time...

[@bunnyhop1784]

Also, a wood stove to keep you warm.

[@robertlunsford9563]

Dad's hunting Beagles would pull the ears off the stalk and eat the corn off the cob. They weren't very good at shucking though.

[@CCRider5312]

Corn is one of the main ingredients in Most of the hard dry dog food. Look at the ingredients on the dog food bags. The more expensive dog foods don’t have corn as an ingredient but the majority does. But yeah the dogs gotta be pretty hungry to eat Just plain Kernel corn.

[@benjaminspencer6507]

As long as there is food, they will return!! Up to 5 to 10 miles!!!

[@janellevoigt5481]

I would try cutting your curtain into strips top to bottom so that you could still be hidden and yet stick the barrel out and still see through the scope. just a thought.

[@user-zr1ij2tm6u]

Great video... stay safe you all

[@NorRavel]

get several small sand bags for rifle supports at the windows..... and to reduce the noise of the weapon on the wood....

[@joanharkin6540]

Awesome video!! Nice blind!! Love n Blessings

[@grannygoes]

Shelter will likely put them down due to no known background and likely feral. You know in the back of your mind that they will interfere with deer. Only leaves one humane choice. 😢 but appropriate.

[@keithjones818]

Sean paint the inside of your blind dark brown or black, that will breakup your silhouette!

[@angellocke8473]

I love watching your videos, thank you for sharing and have a great evening!!

[@gracewashburn8276]

Shane you can actually go along your property line and use purple paint along with the no trespassing signs. Purple is a sign that states no hunting purple paint marks on the trees. They do that in Massachusetts and New Hampshire, and Maine. You put purple marks on your property lines along the trees, along with the big yellow sign stating private property keep out and you have to go through every year and date them so they’re up-to-date with the no trespassing.❤❤ God forbid somebody goes hiking through your property and you haven’t got it Mark and you wind up shooting at someone which would scare the daylights out of them as long as you didn’t hit them but they’re also trespassing, so you definitely have to mark your boundary lines

[@RatdogDRB]

What's the point of all of the expense and bother to trap 'em if you're just going to turn 'em loose? It's time to do some serious thinning.

[@aliasfred]

I trap in my own "city" yard and dispatch with a .22 pellet. I have learned to never ever dispatch on a concrete porch, what a mess. Now trap only on the grass.

[@cjwills2757]

Use purple paint on the trees along your border. If you don't know what it means look it up, Google, ask siri or whatever... it's the same as a No Trespassing sign

[@joetaylorchristmastree2866]

Hi how are you doing today 🤗😍

[@mariahoekstra370]

Hi all😊we relocated racoons..5 to 10 miles away from your home, if you don't want to see them again. They were eating our cat food and baby kittens.

[@shermrock345]

And you know you can paint your trees and posts now as a marker for no trespassing now in Oklahoma. I forget what color we use though.

[@debrasix9690]

I’ve been reading on the comments here the color is purple

[@lydiaferguison]

Sometimes people spray a spot of paint on their backs so they can know if they keep catching the same ones.

[@gordondollman3606]

Glad yas are doing great stay safe and well ❤

[@lynnestaten9178]

A pack of dogs is more dangerous than coyotes

[@angelawebb6987]

Just as dangerous, come on folks. Coyotes and wolves (which are a dog) and domestic dogs will all run in a pack. Brandon and Stephanie just found on of their dead guineas a long was from where it was caught and eaten. You all talk as of animal control will show up just anywhere. No so. Folks make up your mind what you want to happen. These who raise their own poultry, beef, goats, hogs, went into ymthe business to feed their families, NOT the wild animals nor the dogs people dump rather than putting them down rather than making them someone else's problem. Cog Hill Farm had to finally state it publicly they cannot take in any more animals. I'd rather dispatch one, than risk seeing it starve to death.

[@SpiritBearRanch1890]

Wild dogs are pure trouble Dutch

[@sherylwhite-sq1xt]

You can mark them with spray paint so you know if it's the same one

[@matthewcornwell8683]

Hi hope your all are doing good love your all videos 😊

According to a documentary seen on PBS Racoons can and do travel many miles. He or she may be back before you get back. They can swim also.

[@carlbenj1668]

trouble is too many people get tired of a pup and drop them off to a place like like yours, and your right most takin in will be put down, all the people thats say well you should do this or that wont step up to help

[@mommabearmaryann8106]

I live in the city, and I am being overrun by raccoons. I've had this problem for about 15 years. There is a family of them that lives in the porch roof of my next door neighbor. The problem is our porch roofs are attached. They destroyed my roof and I had to have it replaced, $3,000. They have burroughed through 2 of my neighbors roofs, into their homes. We are not aloud to harm them. We can buy traps, catch them, then take care of it until the city decides to come pick it up. High fines if you hurt them. As cute as they are, they can be very dangerous and destructive. Don't ever feed them. They'll remember and keep showing up.

[@maryhoward1338]

Look up things that repel them . See if anything helps. Sad that your city does not understand how dangerous they are.

[@mommabearmaryann8106]

@maryhoward1338 I have tried it all. Other than poisoning them, there not going anywhere. It's illegal here to poison them but I don't think I could do it anyway.

[@margaretjones8949]

Dutch here in the U K we have just had a man killed whilst trying to protect his mother from 2 dogs which seems to originate from the U S A and in a later incident a young boy was attacked by a dog we have yet to be informed off ownership off any , Please do not for one moment think your dear girls will be safe with what appears to be a large pack of dogs off unknown ownership ,dogs as we know are pack animals and are under no one's control .I. do hope you all your family will not mind me commenting on this issue .
