[/quote] I'd hate to have to do that, but it's true. We have 2 Maine Coons (cats)...they'd be dinner long before the dogs. [/quote] True.. God forbid..... cats and crows...really bad meat...trust me. [/quote] My location is on a lake. Lots of ducks...except in winter. Lots of fish. Lots of rabbit and deer. Also, squirl and dove are pleantyful. [/quote] Climate change will end your delusions of growing food and harvesting game. Not to mention you have got to feed your animals as well, if they do no succumb to the climate changes, pollution, et al. Also, a small population of people will wipe country sides clean of small and large animals in short order. Louis and Clarks' small party wiped out large and small game animals on the north west coast 2 days walk around their camp in part of a one fall and one winter. If it were not for the natives in the area bringing them food, they would have starved to death. You are forgetting the population in this country is 300 million. You really think all those living in large cities are just going to sit in their rooms and starve without moving into the country side? You really think you will somehow be able to 'hide' where you are? In the past, large numbers of people walked from the east to the west across this country in relatively short order. Is there a road to your house? Hard to hide food and shelter with a road leading right to it. But, its good to dream and it sounds like you got it already, that is awesome, enjoy it, cause it aint gonna last forever. [/quote] Laughable. This once great nation may have walked East to West coast as you say but not anymore. You are sleeping at the wheel better pull off the next exit and check the map and stretch your legs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obesity_in_the_United_States OP's scenario is quite a ways from perfect but your pessimism is not even in the ball park. Come hell and high water who would I wish I listened to you or OP? Good job OP thanks for the tip on beagles. [/quote] My pleasure. :dance: [/quote]

Some of you (like me) have places to get to away from populated areas. Some of you are good woodsmen and women. Hunters etc...Prepers.
Even if you have all your preps in order. Land to grow food. Protection. Hunting and fishing gear. Gas and stabilizer. Everything you could think of to keep you and your family going strong when/if TSHTF, never underestimate the value of a pack of hounds. The more the merrier.
I have 2 beagles, a 7 year old female with 7 good years in the woods tracking, and a 1 year old pup who has been in the woods a great number of hours since she was 8 weeks old.
I'll try to get at least 2 more if TSHTF. Together as part of your family they offer hunting companionship, protection, an alert system, and a 1st line of defense. If you treat them well they'll always be there for you.
If you can, get some hounds.
