BobCo, My breeder wants me to get registered and take NY's test so I can track in NY.

All, I own a Wire Haired Dachshund and is very much in training and has done a fantastic job thus far in his training. I belong to the United Blood Trackers at the link provided above by catch. It's a fantastic organization and many trackers willing to come out at most any hour to track for hunters. It's a great org to look into. I know my breeders dog, (my dogs sire) has found deer and bear over 72 hours old.

There used to be a member here too that breeds WH Dachshunds for the same purpose, Kevin1...down it TX.

I was goint to purchase one of his dogs when he turned me towards Andy Bensing here in PA. Andy tracks in NY as well as MD. He and the org are trying to get it legalized here in PA. It's still the right thing to do and is an old outdated law. It's all bull politics now. Last year it passed the House and went onto the Senate where some ass politician attached a bill knowing it would fail....bull politics. Andy is getting frusterated as it's been a long trial.

If anyone here in PA is interested you can either join or write your Rep and Senator asking why this is not legal. It's been introduced as HB420...beg for it. You can read more here: http://www.unitedbloodtrackers.org/pages/pastory.html

http://www.unitedbloodtrackers.org/index.php Also has a state by state registration on those willing to track. If you know of a tracker that is not on the web page, have them join and register. Any animal found by whatever means necessary will always be the right thing to do.

Good luck out here.

Here's my boy, my little Axel, my tracker:
