I know! The dog will bark as long the moose is standing still. At least that is by the book.

So the trick is to sneak in to shooting range. that can be real close, sometimes 10-30 meters.
You walk while the dog is barking, so it dos not hear you . And of course you have to be aware of the wind direction.

I shot a moose at close range this October, about 10 meters I think, when the dog was barking. in Norway we call it " Los"
The thing is to stay calm in this situation. I'm sure you can imagine the adrenaline pumping when going "head to head" whit these big animals

They also hunt Bears the same way. Then you need a very strong psyched dog (and hunter )
