NO I did not shoot a deer. I am just wondering if there are any websites based around training a dog to being a good tracker?? Rob?? I keep thinking your dog is trained?? I dont have a dog right now but am thinking that whenever I do get one it will either run rabbits or blood trails??
Here ya go, this is where I found the dog I use when I need one. Steve and Remy are top notch! http://www.unitedbloodtrackers.org/
And the first thing I'd do is also get John Jeanneney's book, Tracking Dogs for Finding Wounded Deer. He can be found on the UBT's website as well as http://www.born-to-track.com/john.htm Also, it's (I) recommend anyone interested in finding a tracking dog or a tracker him/herself, to join the UBT. Great people and a state to state listing. I'm also a member and have been for years.
Thanks BHF~~ I am hoping to one day be able to train whatever dog I own to do all the tracking on its own!! I will look through the Training Info in a bit!! Thanks'!!
Thanks Rob.... I likely wont be buying a dog for another year or better, but I figure if I can learn from now til then it will not hurt!! I appreciate the help!! ALSO: I wonder if there is a tape to John Jeanneneys book...because this ol'boy isnt a big fan of books!! Haha!!!!
You'll need nothing more than that book I recommended and access to some great minds on the UBT website.
