Thanks y'all! He is ok off leash now outside the house. Now i go to the woods and he is tied to the tractor, and coming back I let him loose (before deer hunting season of course) and he runs around but does follow me home.

So this spring our 10 year old Doberman mix Duchess died - suspect heat stroke. It was a hot day in May and we were on the trails as we have almost every weekend and she fell behind. I went back and she was expired. So given the covid demand for every animal drove prices to ridiculous, we planned to...
