[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1815185, member: 6291"] This is a very sad deal that hits close to home. I've read some things from people and apparently it was filled with sewer water/ waste. A lot of people don't realize that sewage gives off the same deadly gas, h2s, that we deal with in O&G wells. It has no smell but is deadly to breath. I met a guy once whose whole job was to monitor and treat h2s gas in the San Antonio sewer system. Basically the dog jumped in and then the guy jumped in after the dog, two other jumped in each try to save the one before. From a hunting stand point I have never understood this. I have hog hunted since I was 12 or 13 and I have never understood this. I love my dogs but I am not going to put myself in jeopardy to go after them. They are probably more capable than me, if they can't make it back, I probably wont make it back. I grew up hunting along the SA River. Some times dogs crossed the river after hogs. I saw a guy swim the river at night to get his dog and swim back. I've seen these guys do it over and over. On the other side of it, they always said over and over and over at our safety meeting at work... do not go in danger areas to try to save people. Get a plan, get the right gear, and go in. Situations Iike this have happened before with h2s, electricity, grain bins, etc. There is some talk that they did not have permission to be on the land and what not which is not good but it's still a very sad deal. It's tough to be in those situations and sadly it didn't work out for them. My question is who keeps pits like that exposed out on their land? [/QUOTE]
