I believe Frieda hunted for her food during the time she roamed the Adirondacks, before she was caught by an animal control officer she eluded for a year. Walking on the path, she often goes into a four-leg stance, erect and focus. She used to run off and vanish for hours after that, but she is usually on a leash and when offleash she is closely watched and very responsive to commands. She is ever-alert to any movement in the forest.
