TBH BLOOD DOG TRACKING, TRAINING, & RECOVERY Thread

[BrokenJ]

Rough morning today. Hunter hit a nice ten with a bow. He said it was a good hit started tracking and found the arrow about 250 yards into the track. Good blood and I was thinking its in the bag. At 990 yards dimmit jumped the buck and the race was on. Blood was sparse and dimmit stayed on the trail. No blood for after 1200 yards and we just kept working into the wind towards where I thought he would go. Sure enough 1.75 miles in and an hour later dimmit jumped him again I could see the Bucks head through the brush couldn't get a shot, but thought dimmit would get him bayed. He was running half speed and breathing really hard. About 275 yards after he jumped him dimmit shut down. Was already hot and almost noon. Broom weeds were thick and I knew he was exhausted he wouldn't move just laid there panting. My dog is in great shape but his gas tank was on E. I carried him over 300 yards to a lake near by and about died myself, going to let him rest then take him back this afternoon and walk theough it again. Learned a lesson, carry extra water.

I am new to this site and would like to post a photo of my dogs and get added to the tracking dog list by region. Any advice on how to do so?

Thanks river rat, don't know if that buck would have bayed but I'm thinking it was a low shot from 20 feet up after talking to the shooter more, maybe clipped the bottom of 1 lung.

Glad Dimmit is ok Damonj! I have seen that before with bird dogs and it is definitely a scary situation.

Taz made her first track on a live wounded animal this weekend. She tracked it 200 yards. She bayed the pig but kept her distance until I arrived to finish it off. I couldn't have been more exited if I would have killed a 200 inch buck. I'm getting a bigger kick out of tracking than I ever had killing. Hopefully I will put her on a track of a 200 inch deer some day. Don't know if I could stand all that excitement!

Anyone near Whitehouse? I've got a buddy who needs a dog. It's a good trek for me or I'd take my dog.

Getting Delta back in on the action after her injury! Had to take a few weeks off and we missed out on a few tracks but shes back to her old self. Short track around 125 yards but into the thickest crap you can imagine. Def loving the Alpha and being able to sit back till shes found it and not having to follow her through the thick stuff.

Good to hear she's back on the trail!

I pulled a Low shot, last night. don't usually miss that bad on long shots. Gave her a few hours and dropped the dog. Wouldn't have found her without put him out.

Congrats to Dimmit on another good track and got to love gaving a good dog!
