Here are some of our recommended canine puppies in distress sounds:Īs you can see there is nothing earth shaking about our method for calling gray fox. 99% of the time the animal will come in to the decoy/caller Anytime I have a fox hang up outside of shooting range or start barking at us, I immediately switch to canine puppies in distress. However if the animal hangs up, starts barking or fails to close the distance to shotgun range – use the “secret weapon”.Ĭanine puppies in distress is absolutely deadly on gray foxes. If the animal is coming in strong we typically mute the caller and let the decoy movement do its job and bring the animal all the way in. Techniques at this point will vary depending on the situation. Normally at some point during the gray fox distress cycle you will catch the movement of a gray coming to the stand. Our technique is to cycle through at least 3 different gray fox distresses changing sounds about every 2 minutes.

There is no doubt that they hear the distress cries but for whatever reason they are reluctant to respond. Most of the time during the day its been our experience that a gray fox will not come to the call during the time the cottontail distress is playing. The decoy should run continuously during the entire stand. We typically use a Mojo Critter or a FOXJACK attached to the caller. It reassures the animal that there is something small and furry that it can eat or dominate at the source of the sound. Or if your goal is calling animals in very, very close, it focuses the animal’s attention and draws them in. With foxes, decoy movement is the key to success when calling with several people on stand. Sometimes we change from one cottontail to another at the 4 – 5 minute mark. Run the sound continuously for 6 – 7 minutes. I would recommend starting the stand with any of the above cottontail distress sounds at medium to loud volume.
