Haven't been here in awhile and good to be back.

DON'T LEAVE THOSE DOGS TO ROT!!--whatever u do. It's nothing to skin them, but forget about all the paw skinning stuff--that's way too much work. All u need to do is make or get a fleshing beam and fleshing knife (even a window ice scraper will do.). Coarse flesh them, wash them a bit in a bucket and use dish soap if u want too, sew up any big bullet holes, stretch flesh side out on a big coyote stretcher (don't forget to skin out the ear cartilage), and let dry for 6-8 hours until "tacky", flip them and dry for a day or two. pull off stretcher and hang them somewhere where the wife doesn't gripe about it. When u get all u want sell them at the fur auction and/or tan them through Moyle Mink (google them) @ ~ 30$ each.
