A couple times he got too far away when it was time to go. I hiked back out to the truck, drove out to the main road, parked and ate a sandwich. A while later he comes trailing up the road, following the scent. Bawled at me for a good bit when he finally got to the truck, but doesn't disappear for too long anymore. Sometimes you just have to let a dog work things out themselves.
Now I know where Rex gets it from. I've found that he'll either be back at the truck or wandering the road as I'm driving out. I'd still like to know where he is and may get a GPS collar at some point.
