Tried to take Whiz on a hike to the river today. It's a rough trail thru 2 gates. He has been there before. This afternoon, we were halfway there when he stopped cold, froze, and stared toward the river for nearly a full minute. I saw nothing, heard nothing.
Then, he bolted back uphill towards the first gate and jumped at it to tell me to hurry up and open it. He ran straight for the second gate back into the park. I put his leash on and he pulled hard all the way back to the rv.
I have heard coyotes at night and I think there are bobcats around. But I am not a stealthy hiker. Both those animals should have heard me and taken off. Not sure Whiz would recognize either one, anyway.. Not sure what spooked him, but something definitely did.
