Tracking dog
I am glad to say I finally took my first deer this season, but also sad to say I lost one. Along with others, blood trails for my dad, husband, and myself were thin to follow. The deer I found was by following the "right" trail. There was no blood until I was on top of her. All shots were perfectly placed. It baffled all of us. With the heartache of losing my first, and the difficulties of the others, I am considering adding a dog to the family. Any suggestions?

Depends on the area you hunt if they are even allowed. Sucks but East Tx doesnt allow in most of the southern counties. I will tell you the Vizsla that Atombomb here gave our family is a TRACKING beast and isnt even a yr old yet.
I would look into a lacy if you are real serious though. -
We have a black & tan bloodhound named "Hambone". Besides the fact he hasn't lost a deer yet- he is by far the coolest dog to own. He's awesome looking- like the Hee Haw dog, super friendly and even though he is grown he acts like a big ole puppy. Good natured, makes us smile all the time. Loves kids and loves people in general. Neither one of us has ever owned a bloodhound before or even knew someone who did but we will always have a bloodhound after this one. Not just a tracking dog but a family member.Attached FilesComment

Our ranch out in west texas has blue heeler that is a tracking machine.
Don't know how $erious you are but these are extremely good dogs, they ship them all over and have been breeding this line of trackers for generations.
