Leashed Blood tracking dog.


Recommended Posts

Thx, we are a free service if I'm available I'll try to help. Just love working with the dog. Little background on him he's the Texas state dog and a mix of and English blue collie, grey hound and coyote. They use them to run hogs, coyote, and track deer. They also have great herding instincts. Check him out on FB

John helped me find my son's first bow buck a bunch of years ago.  I still think of your dog and can still see her perk up when she winded the buck!
That was a great day! That's the great part of tracking getting to meet great guys n gals that just want to accomplish the seemingly impossible. At the least we give some closure to the question wounded or dead.

That is a long ways for that shot!

 

Any idea if it was bumped before you started tracking?

 

I shot a doe last week and I almost reached out to you. High entry, no exit, only a few drops of blood. I left her overnight and luckily I found her within 100 yards the next day.

 

I assume the lack of blood is irrelevant for a dog?

Yes I believe it was bumped by coyotes the dog was bristled up and could smell them. It back tracked on itself too. Also when he found the deer he was air checking and growling.. they were close by.

The lack of blood for the dog is relevant but he tracks on more than just blood. The one huge advantage of the dog is to extend the blood trail. I like to have one person stay on the blood and we move that person up each time we confirm blood but still have them actively looking. Thus we can always go back to last blood if the dog is distracted by a live deer. Also i use the on-x app to aid with this if i only have one person.

 

Good job on your track BTW

Zed has really been doing a great job this year 15 tracks to date. For a first year pup I'm really impressed.
This buck went 789 yards with very little to no blood. Found the arrow in 600yds confirming we were on it. It took him 30 minutes to complete. Shot was quartered away thru front of back leg into guts n liver. 20201106_112245.jpeg
