[QUOTE="madtuna, post: 308698, member: 44"] Hi Chriso. There are a few crooks and scammers on the fields, but thankfully they are in a minority. Lease papers are not something a lease holder usually carries around in his pocket, so often you can just make matter worse demanding to see them. Usually the best bet is for you to carry or at least have handy in your vehicle a current Tengraph print out if it's vacant or pending or a copy of your 40E or permission if it's a lease. That way you can show them and if he's a scammer he will fold on the spot. As for your dog, just be aware that last year was a bumper year for breeding for most ferals due to the excellent rainfalls. This year appears to be the same or better. Unfortunately, wild dogs have exploded in numbers and most stations are baiting in earnest and employing shooters. Many pastoral stations are now just saying no to prospectors bringing dogs, something they do have a right to do under law. Most will only do so if they are not contacted first. Be aware of baits, keep your dog with you and muzzled. A dog not with its owner or a dog not wearing a muzzle is indistinguishable from a wild dog no matter the breed. A muzzle will save a dog from a bait, and the sight of a muzzle will save a dog from a bullet. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
