where can you buy a trained deer tracking dog?

Answer 1

statesboro, ga., the deer hunting capital of the south. fine dogs and prices. no big deal. just call anybody at the feed store.

elaine don't know nothing.

Answer 2

Well, every state I know of has laws against dogs running deer. It's not sportsmanship either.

Check in your phone book under the government section and find the listing for the DNR (Department of Natural Resources) and call them, ask if deerhunting with dogs is allowed in your state, and at what time of the year.

If you're looking to train a dog to tracking, they train them on raccoons, rabbits, fox, possums and bear, but not deer.

If you're thinking of deerhounds, those are sight dogs and hunt by seeing something and running after it, not tracking. That was a European or UK thing and isn't done over here in the USA.

I will agree Elaine does not know what she is talking about. Tracking dogs for recovering wounded game is growing in exceptence here in the United States. Currently a little more than half of the states allow tracking dogs in one fashion or another. There are some good resources out there. One of the best is www.unitedbloodtrackers.org You can get many of your questions answered there. I am a co founder and board member of this organization. We fill that it is every hunters responsability to use every means available to recover wounded game. That is why we organized to train and promote the use of tracking dogs for recovering wounded game. Another good resource is http://www.thetroutbum.com/messageboardfr.htm
