RE: Gonna kill my dog
(((IMO)))
I don't think it would bother the deer. They come in contact with wild dogs all the time. I used to take my Rottie (before she passed) with me in the woods all the time. As any dog would, she "marked her terrority). Never seen any deer get spooky b/c of it.
If you are that worried about it buy a bottle of Odor Nix. Its the best thing I've ever seen. It breaks down the protein. Its used in hospitals and veternarian offices. I use it to hunt with and litearlly swear by it.
