Depends on the hound. Mine won't pay any attention, but I have seen others that will come back and great ya then return to the tree. I have noticed that once the hound gets used to it, they are more apt to come to it when they hear it buzzing around and they do not have a track going. Which I find handy if they are getting too close to a road or ground you don't have permission to hunt. Can't remember the last time I hunted off anything but the wheeler. It will be new at first, but they will get used to it.

We hunt off a mule during the summer, the dog box fits perfectly in the back and its alot cooler riding it around than walking. I usually don't ride right up to the base of the tree, and have never had a dog to pay it any attention at all.
