Thanks folks so far for keeping this topic clean....it is very much appreciated. I've only had to remove two posts on 5 pages so far. In addition, the original question had nothing to do with legally hunting deer with dogs for those that did not read it. If it is legal in your state and that is what you do... fine. It is however illegal in most states, just a thought. Gotta have a thick skin to wade into threads such as this one, don't take it personal.
