had a bloodhound that i trained to track, but never needed her, then she was killed, so i had to use my sisters on my doe last year, also a bloodhound, she found it.....now that i have another bloodhound i have been waiting for some blood and hide to get her started...hunting on private land opens this weekend so hopefully i'll get her started on it......she loves to track other stuff, like hide and seek, lol....she loves finding humans, i know it's in her, everytime we go out to the woods, i'll see a deer and let her track it form the road, she does well...they have to be on a leash and whatever weapon is legal during the hunt is the weapon you can have...
