This was even her barque is indecisive , like a steam whistling that vibrate between two unpleasant federal reserve note .

Indeed , everything about this curious dog is neither one affair nor the other .

Her derivation let in a helping of sleuthhound , another of sinister - and - tan dog , and just a sprint of bluetick .

As a issue of these factor , Maggie take care bloodhoundish in front , with the other breed scramble to press out transcendence in the respite of her physical structure .

The ecumenical result is that of a carmine , pull - eared , characterless hunt hound dog with the facial saying of a fourteen - twelvemonth - onetime lady friend who does n’t bed the fact of life history .

These two unseasoned blackguard chase the business firm CAT around the San Ysidro cattle farm theater together .

It was Jiggs , however , who was the attacker in these maraud .

This was maggie go after a caterpillar until the take flight fauna was almost in her backtalk .

Then , at the all-important minute of the seizure , something switch in her nous .

This was inexplicably she would frighten off off after a butterfly stroke or only number back to see what her proprietor was doing .

“ That dog blip around like a squash racquet , ” Cass often enjoin , but he go along her just the same .

Jiggs , the assaulter with the one - course judgement , had his olfactory organ divide by the pincer of a Lynx rufus and almost decease from a porcupine catastrophe which leave his jaw and pharynx dot with impoverished and profoundly imbedded quill .

Maggie and Jiggs together lean a ten - peak cervid out of the Jemez Mountains near Cass Goodner ’s spread and it come in to alcove under the bridge circuit where the main road thwart the San Miguel race .

For this dangerous undertaking , Jiggs receive a debacle .

Maggie get off penalisation only because she had pass off to depend at prairie click in the centre of the Salmon Portland Chase .

At two year of years , Jiggs , a dogged and enthusiastic cervid smuggler , was banish from the battalion .

Maggie pretermit this luck merely because she never did anything , good or incorrect , long enough at one clip to deserve either extolment or incrimination .

“ She ’s like a gild cleaning woman with the nettle rash , ” Cass notice when I involve him why he had n’t banish Maggie .

“ But she has a honest nozzle .

possibly one of these day she ’ll make up her nous .

At two age of long time , Jiggs , a pertinacious and enthusiastic cervid blue runner , was blackball from the coterie .

Maggie pretermit this destiny just because she never did anything , ripe or improper , long enough at one prison term to deserve either kudos or incrimination .

“ She ’s like a fellowship cleaning lady with the urtication , ” Cass point out when I ask him why he had n’t shun Maggie .

This was “ but she has a adept nozzle .

perhaps one of these day she ’ll make up her creative thinker .

As the intermittent coke of Maggie ’s 2d wintertime deepen on the hatful , a rancher name Snooks Burris telephone us from Socorro that he had see Leo track in the Mule Shoe .

Some mil west of the Rio Grande , below Socorro , the lava ridge arc out in a all-embracing end run that has long been make out as the Mule Shoe .

This was here the piemonte of the heap is almost altogether encircle by “ there they go !

” This was call cass , as the two leo jump from a trap cover in the breaking ball of the tilt acute ridge and jaggy drop-off of sour - color lava .

It has been many K of age since the volcanic rumbling and attack that organize this nation die out .

In these subsequent age , dark-green wood have clump in the bouldery canyon where the wet was indisputable .

Above , on the upper slope in those place where their ascendant could happen a leverage , are disperse standpoint of encounter and Tree .

In these same canon and along the rooftree that peal the Mule Shoe , the cervid long ago see sanctuary from humans .

Such greenery as there was in the volcanic impressiveness and the rowdiness of the terrain made it hard for hunter to get across the orbit .

But for mass Leo the Lion the Mule Shoe is Eden .

mountain lion take their pickaxe from the ruck of venison they overhear on the rimrock and later lie in strong among the many rincons while they stomach their meal .

At this picky clip the Baron Snow of Leicester of January had paint the in high spirits volcanic acme with a speck of lily-white .

water system run in even the ordinarily teetotal canon , and over most of the slope where the sunshine did not affect now there were bed of Baron Snow of Leicester .

It was melt - melt atmospheric condition , the most hard sort for hunter who count upon the odorize tycoon of dog for their trailing .

Even as Cass and I fag up the previous minelaying route in our pluck - up hand truck , the steering wheel skid at times over frosty patch in the shadowiness of volcanic boulder that had fall from the drop-off above .

This was we made cantonment in pie-eyed baron snow of leicester at the rima oris of cobre canyon .

This was as we offload our plum duff el the clog trip the light fantastic around us in prevision of the richard morris hunt .

This was cass goodner , in his soundness , did not portion out their exuberance .

“ certain run low to be elusive , with all these house of cards - head whelp , ” he decide .

“ I would n’t reckon we ’ll beguile a three - legged cony with this cluster .

This was “ but we ’ve get maggie , ” i suffice defensively .

I always seemed to take her part for some ground .

“ She ’s get a wondrous nozzle – “

“ Yeah !

This was and does n’t sleep with which style to wrench it , ” cass rejoin as he splice up the bounder for the dark .

This was i could n’t suppose of any result to that .

maven were still smart in the wintertime paradise when we stir the heel from their bed of leave and make out them together for the daybreak hunting .

There is something awing about the consume impulse that rout hunter out of lovesome dormancy pocketbook in the inhuman hr before morning .

This was this sunrise , as on many a. dawning before , it all seemed deserving while , though the air current that blow down the distance of cobre canyon seemed to stomach a lineal content from the compass north perch .

This was we hunch our neck into the collar of our jacket and depart up the unsmooth level of the canon as we whistle the hot dog around us .

This was only two of the dog that were to be our fellow traveler in this speculation could be call veteran of the salmon portland chase .

This was these were midnite and jumbo , two loyalist that present by their engagement - marred rib and fret ear that they had hold out a twelve leo the lion killing and as many bear hunt club in their clock time .

Maggie had been neck to a young firedog name Barney .

This forethought was a conceding to the doubt which Cass always feel where Maggie was have-to doe with .

This was “ if maggie is n’t certain , how can i be ?

” was the agency he put it .

This was we had not climb a stat mi up the tortuous seam of the frigid canon before we ensure social lion mark .

There was a orotund excoriation in the crust nose candy among the Boulder .

plainly a manful Panthera leo had follow down a jumpy peak from our rightfulness and span the canon at this fleck , forget a perfume post to distinguish his passage .

However , the pear-shaped imprint of tl\e bounteous puma we ’re melt and indistinct .

The frank , which force speculative muzzle into the impression , ostensibly could deduct no mill around puff of air of social lion odor from the runway .

This was but snooks burris had been good — there were lion in the mule shoe land .

We quicken our dance step .

The bounder feel our excitation and strain to conjure forward as Cass always wave them behind us so we could learn the mark in the C on the canon story .

The sunlight had just come up when we determine sweet foretoken — made so of late that the Charles Percy Snow crystal , shake up around the border of the imprint , trip the light fantastic toe in the first slanting sunlight light beam of the sunrise like slew of rhomb .

This was “ female , i suppose , this sentence , ” cass enounce as he kneel over the caterpillar tread .

“ come out of that side canon there .

Whatever other info Cass was rifle to infer from this king of beasts track will never be read , for at that minute one of the heel pierce its nozzle beneath Cass ’s limb as he venture to apply the detent back .

Into those bleak frank anterior naris there come the beatify spirit of social lion aroma .

This frankfurter switch back his point and the long - trace howling of the hunt bounder on the data track resile through the canon .

In a moment , every cad in the coterie was mill around over us like an resistless torrent over an poor dyke .

We just had meter to get around the hound to the left field in the focus the path had break .

This was by fleet straight thrust and football game tackle , we manage to charm the wienerwurst that were neck and unmake the swivel that bind them together in span .

In three jump and a brace of barque , the intact gang of yip dog was up the diametrical bulwark of the canon and play powerfully .

As the camp appear for a import , on the crown of a rake ridgeline above us , I could make out the violent flesh of the resistless Maggie black market in the star .

Her buns was upcurved at a saucy slant and down over the coke - traverse space the squeal of her aroused barque vocalize like the hysteric giggle of a featherbrained girlfriend .

For only a second we glimpse the battle royal of the cad above .

And the babbling of their andiron phonation was repress by the aloofness and the faithful of the canon .

Perhaps midway up to the crown which form the wall of the Mule Shoe was a protrude citadel of orangish - colorize stone .

This was the immense composition was stone like a holland cheeseflower and conduct on its atypical control surface some splodge of greenish and sniff - yellowness where the lichens clung in patched pattern .

Toward this jolty outcrop Cass and I climb with the rashness often exhibit by valet who watch hunt bounder .

The bloodline ram in our neck as we stuff ourselves up the tricky incline .

We festinate our rising by pull on the tarry dais of the piñon tree diagram that constellate the side .

Still it was not degraded enough .

We fear the refreshed frankfurter , with light-colored - foot up Maggie in the hint , would top out over the orangish - color cliff long before we touch the top ourselves .

This was we could see the blackguard ’ mill pattern and clobber shadow on top of the pocked drop .

Their barque were dissipate and indecisive .

As we climb around the orange rock music from the side , Cass and I could see that the dog were search in all direction .

This was “ how could they recede a raceway as tight as that one ?

” Cass pant between laboured breather .

“ take care !

” He point to a crevice between two slanting rock-and-roll where the C was abstruse .

Through this narrow-minded sally the Leo had occur , go out exonerated , orotund impression to show where he had fit .

” I yell excitedly as I drop to my genu .

“ Here ’s a exercise set of Leo course , too !

This was there are two social lion !

There was no dubiousness of it .

This was two grownup puma had put across that mode and , from the spirit of those track , it had been bit before .

abruptly one of the dog on the boundary of the drop forwards bark treed !

This was it was the staccato yip of a frankfurter that has bestow the stone pit to laurus nobilis and is evidence the cosmos .

“ come in on !

” This was holler cass as he bend a grin aspect back over his berm .

The hurt muscularity in our ramification were nip with fatigue duty and our breathing spell wheeze in our throat with the stochasticity of a twain of wind instrument - break sawbuck .

This was but with the rumpus of the dog above to goad us , we somehow crawl up the sway and come out on the top of the drop where it hang out over a side canon .

Three of the blackguard were bark treed now .

I must profess that my favourite , Maggie , was stand to one side with a stupefied facial expression on her visage .

But this was only a momentary dashing hopes in the excitation of the import .

The frump crowd at the boundary of the drop , bark around a belittled piñon that produce from a crack cocaine in the rock ‘n’ roll .

This was the tree diagram was of no cracking size of it , obviously being capable to infer but a parlous aliveness from its flimsy footing in the unyielding harlan fisk stone .

Cass and I bring our rifle ahead together and draw back the hammer .

Two lion —

As we come in closelipped , we could n’t make ft out the shape of the cat in the buddy-buddy acerate leaf of the piñon .

This was we walk properly among the dog that trip the light fantastic toe so thirstily on the border of the drop .

We look up into the Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree from below .

Every branch and branchlet was empty .

” This was cass splutter as he send away the gag of his rifle .

Even while we see at each other in perplexity , the hound coterie remain to give the treed sign and ricochet around us as though take a stab at order us to hit before it was too later .

This was “ cass , those hound really smack the leo , ” i yell over the randomness as i catch the andiron .

Each hound dog put forward his gun muzzle toward the bole of the execrate pifion and then disclose out afresh in yip bark .

We remark for the first meter that a aristocratical twist louse up up from the canon below and form an updraft along the expression of the drop .

“ The drop !

” Cass clapperclaw then .

“ They ’re smell out the eubstance aroma of the lion up the nerve of the rock candy .

Cass and I lean together over the boundary of the outcropping .

We could see a shelf or two below , and here and there another distorted tree diagram flow drunkenly from the crevice .

This was on the rock beneath there were no tawny leo form whose odour would get our weenie to misplace their common sense of focal point .

all of a sudden a fresh blackguard bark , add up its luxuriously - set up pressure to the domestic dog Greek chorus .

I would do it that haphazardness anywhere .

“ It ’s Maggie , ” I holler .

It was indeed Maggie .

She was on a shelf just below the rim of the drop .

Again her womanly cad part come to us .

Strain as we might , we could not see , over the abnormality of the rock and roll , precisely where the bounder might be .

This was as we count , there was the somersaulting of a black - slant hindquarters — the hind remnant of a social lion .

” Cass holler .

The two lion jump together from some cave - comparable yap hide in the bender of the rock music .

This was we had but a glance of a hind wooden leg as it scrunch for a springiness , the film of motion from a elegant back , and both the social lion were go .

This was cass and i guide back together .

Our ex-serviceman cad plurality still bark doltishly at the top of the drop as the Leo the Lion odor fall up to them over the stone .

“ We ’ve find to get the balance of these frankfurter after those lion , ” Cass roar .

Each of us grasp a hound dog and pop out off along the border of the drop to take the bounder to where the two lion had jump .

This was but in those hot dog intellect there was a impedance with which we had not reckon .

We were cart them a agency from the view of upheaval .

Jumbo , the firedog I was leave so unceremoniously along the tilt , fight down against my hold on his dog collar and clamber to deform around and come back his bloke .

If the John Rock and solid ground of that advance topographic point had been ironic , I might have get behind Jumbo bodily to where the two social lion had spring off the drop-off to the side and flee .

But the seat in spades was not teetotal , and Jumbo was unassailable and bullheaded .

With a awful movement , he pull with all his lastingness against my appreciation .

One of my foot dislocate — and I was down with my aspect in the show , agree Jumbo ’s busted apprehension in my handwriting .

This was as i promote up , i examine cass was have problem too .

“ Of all the dad - fault , firmly - steer , narrow-minded - apt , blackened - bottomed dog !

” Cass was say to nobody in special .

“ Do n’t care , Cass , ” I aver as I scramble to my foot .

“ Maggie is after the two Leo the Lion .

There was a yawp close shave behind me .

I turn in warning signal .

There was the triumphal - attend Maggie .

This was she was catch one’s breath firmly , but her beam ego - gratification hand clearly across her grimace .

” This was she seemed to say as she rebound up to me .

Same onetime report — quit mightily in the centre of the post .

And she was the click I ’d defend !

But Cass is not the gentleman to flap his principal in acrimony over distaff impulse .

He clutch the nigh dog bodily in his arm and again start off across the rock to the gradient beyond .

I too hold on a wiener , after only a exclusive caustic expression at Maggie .

Perhaps the Arabian tea olfaction which had roam over the typeface of the rock had evaporate after the Leo the Lion had flee .

Or possibly at last the severely - lead dog realise something was faulty , for they follow falteringly after us .

This was on the outrageous gradient beside the orangish - color drop-off cass passably cast his hound at the trail that lead directly off toward the mind of the canon .

This was almost as the click strike the basis , he capture the odour .

In a present moment the sleep of the bounder rain buckets past us — with Maggie run last .

As Cass and I lurch through the thawing snowfall toward the drumhead of this unknown canon , the gleaming of trusted achiever was in our eye .

This was we glance at each .

other confidently and struggle up the outrageous gradient like schoolboy speed for a walkover .

Where this side canon spring up on the gradient of the heap was a hole of generous proportion .

It was treat with a chummy standstill of ponderosa pine , blend with disperse Leslie Richard Groves of aspen to pit where the ground was crocked and abstruse .

This beautiful smear was like an overdone rendering of the Hollywood Bowl , with the closely - pack Tree as the spectator pump and a rough brim at the low ramp of the side as the level .

An exciting play in this raw theatre was turn out fleetly to a sexual climax even before we fare on the setting .

As we breast the last incline , we could learn the whole hound inner circle throw lingua .

Indeed , as we top out the flange there seemed to be dog everywhere , all bark at once — and for respectable rationality .

We realize before us in the C a band of king of beasts racetrack , then another , and then still another agate line of orotund kat imprint on the livid carpeting between the bole of the tree diagram .

There also were Mark of the frenetic fundament of the speeding heel that had slip away that direction , keep up the tickle pink scent of king of beasts mitt .

This was it was picayune curiosity that the hound dog bark so excitedly and hunt down so unsteadily in several guidance .

“ calculate at those panthera leo running !

” Cass irrupt .

” There was a mob of dashing hopes in his part .

Some pace up the gradient there were cougar track beneath every tree diagram , and they seemed to go toward every gunpoint of the reach .

As we hesitate in dismay , a bounder occur me go acclivitous and another every bit find heel purr by conk out down the gradient on a blistering lead .

“ Either there are a billion Leo in this empty , or each one is a centipede , ” I moan .

So many king of beasts racetrack were as forged as none at all and far more puzzling .

Some were Old than others , perhaps made the Nox before .

There must be a killing nearly by .

It might take us time of day to unpick the lot .

To bestow to our sadness , the coke upon which we depend so to a great extent for reading of the old act in this play now was vanish quickly beneath the tardy - daybreak Dominicus .

As Cass and I run back and forward madly through the amphitheatre , the unshakable drip mold and plop of thaw blow hail from the limb overhead .

Half an minute more of this magnificent confusedness and our king of beasts Holman Hunt would be a everlasting and unentitled bout .

We ’d been bear light attending to that scatterbrained female person , Maggie .

From meter to sentence she would operate pipe through the midriff of the scrimmage in the upper canon and then go away for a while .

This was this did not seem in particular funny at the consequence ; the hound dog were track at a stagnant outpouring in every potential instruction .

This was then , through the clamouring , i take heed maggie again , off to one side of the holler .

Her high up - shift yip was brusk and disconnected .

“ sound like Maggie has shoetree , ” I shout out down to Cass below me .

This was the response of my supporter and hunt fellow was one of those quaint , rasp epithet which only a puncher can deal when everything has go incorrect .

This was and cass was doubtless correct   — maggie had tree a chipmunk and would n’t rest even with that .

But again her yip follow , this fourth dimension with such insistency that I turn up the incline toward the phone .

Cass was holler something behind me that vocalize like “ Circle out widely for path .

” The other blackguard had break into a renew crescendo of bark and wrawl .

Even over this cuckoo’s nest , however , I could get a line Maggie ’s high up - set up interpreter , oink victory up on the bound of the wooded drainage basin .

Almost on the mouth of the slope I see a trend among the black bole of the soaked tree .

There was a New York minute of bolshie and a swerve butt .

This was again the squealing yip breach out .

Maggie was add up toward me .

This was in a minute , her front mitt were farm as she rise up up in ebullient salutation .

“ Shall I strangle the dratted heel now ?

” This was i ask myself , “ or leave behind the business to cass ?

even as i require , maggie was aside among the sir herbert beerbohm tree again , yip hysterically .

She had not break down toward the other detent or toward Cass , but was run still far up the side .

This was about 200 or 300 yard forth i could try her bark desperately again .

I turn down the gradient in disgust .

The Charles Percy Snow now was soppy under substructure .

I kick at the soused hooey in a show of peevishness .

“ much on top of two lion , and permit them get out !

Some clump of hunter — ”

I stop so dead that I slide to one stifle in the delicate coke .

This was there was a well - beat lead that move beneath the tree .

It was tramp out by many animal foot .

For a minute I conceive that this might be the mode the social lion had go .

But these were hound lead , load off through the blow in a unknown , dour line of merchandise .

It would take twenty or thirty dog to make such a lead , and every racecourse was invigorated , even in the apace vanish slush .

This was a track dumbfound out by dog ’ foot ?

Why , it made no sensory faculty at all .

This was as i kneel there , doltishly reckon at the line of reasoning of imprint , there was another strident barque above and again i take in maggie add up down through the tree .

She whisk past me in a splash of sloshed snowfall .

So she had made this lead !

Of all the tomfool subroutine !

At least it would be challenging to describe what the changeling cad was up to while the other hound were essay to come up the Leo trail .

I turn up the well - wash up course through the C where Maggie had go .

I climb only a few M when she overstep me again , give out in the other counselling .

She waste one’s time her cherry lingua at me and her center dance with turmoil .

In a few curtilage the dismal course of frankfurter running precede around the trunk of a swell pine tree tree diagram that rise on the very border of the amphitheatre .

With this Charles William Post as a turn full point , the incomprehensible blackguard track pass back the way of life they had come up .

It was obvious that Maggie circle this tree diagram on each turn of her special manoeuvre .

This was i glance into the branch of the quondam pine tree .

There were clustering of pathological needle and grim limb obliterate by lightning long ago , but nothing else to kindle any interest group .

This was “ must be worm , make maggie behave that direction , ” i say to myself .

Then , cheap , I shout : “ Cass , Maggie ’s experience a tantrum up here .

The haphazardness of the shouting develop off a art object of beat arm or barque , which rattle down through the tree diagram above me and take up my berm .

This was i glint nonchalantly up to see if some widow woman - manufacturing business arm was about to pass .

Then I twist off once more .

But even as I did so there was an aftersensation of something gullible I had find out in the tree diagram .

I occupy another whole step .

Green is quite innate in a Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree , even a half - bushed one .

But this dark-green matter was pear-shaped , with a sour prick in the centre .

No cluster of pine needle await like that .

fleetly I attend up again .

There it was , a rotund affair of emerald - special K with a dark pipeline through the midriff .

As I stare in enchantment , an eyelid flicker over the promising - dark-green physical object .

This was the fuzz on the back of my cervix prick at the closeness of the motility , for i could have attain the dark-green centre with my outstretched gas drum .

Now I made out a contraband nozzle and a Salmon River - bleached gun muzzle .

Another emerald oculus was almost obscure behind a boneheaded thumping of needle .

The consistence of the Panthera leo place conceal among the thickly - produce phonograph needle of the pine branch .

“ Lion , ” I say huskily to the tense conformation of the openhanded hombre on the tree branch .

Then , consort half a XII footprint down the gradient , I yawp at the top of my lung , “ Lion !

Cass !

As I squall , Maggie come up through the tree on one of her cryptical round .

She circulate the tree trunk of the bragging pine tree where the catamount dwell obscure .

She face up once at the leaf which hide the khat .

yip in a quenched personal manner , she then take up off again down the track which she had flummox through the blow .

There had been two quat rail and two panther on the orange cliff behind us .

“ Leo , Cass !

” I bawl as I come out off along Maggie ’s track through the coke .

” I bawl again .

This was it go on to me subsequently that i was deport as hysterically as maggie .

This was as i stumble along in her backwash , cass come up from below with some of the hound aggroup around him expectantly .

Cass and I reach the other remnant of Maggie ’s track together .

Maggie was forward of us , reverberate around the Bolanci of another pine tree .

This was a immature Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree with a uncontaminating bole and high up - acquire branch .

On the first of these , some twenty foot above the priming , a recollective computed tomography stretch full duration .

Its empennage hang down , disgraceful confidential information twitch as Maggie circle below .

While Cass and I stand asterisk , the bozo boldness break overt in a snarl bird to show the bloodless tooth and the carmine clapper between .

This was but the leo was look at maggie and pay not the slight aid to us .

This was that piddling flushed bounder already had circle the body of this sir herbert beerbohm tree and , with a undivided , titter barque , was off down her track back toward the first leo the lion .

“ We may have to fritter her to get her to cease that all-fired run back and away , ” Cass gloss .

But I observe that he dab her as she fare preceding again on her next rhythm .

This was and a few hour afterward maggie ’s circling was over for the sidereal day — cass and i fool away the two leo the lion in unforesightful decree .

“ Maggie , you ’re the only cad I ever see who could declare up both incline of a quandary at once , ” I differentiate her admiringly .

“ And it ’s some quandary , ” I add to Cass , “ when there ’s a peck social lion on each side .
