After reading all the posts about having trouble finding game animals. I am curious if anyone out there uses dogs to retrieve their animals?

Here in the state of Oregon the regulations read " It is prohibited to use dogs to hunt any game animal except western gray squirrel" .

I have an australian sheppard female that is a fantastic tracker, she found her first deer at 1 year old and to date she has found 11 deer and 9 elk counting this year. I have friends that will call if they have a tracking job that doesnt pan out.
As a side note only 1 deer and 1 elk were mine the rest were for friends.

If i have to use the dog I never carry a weapon so I cant be accused of actually hunting. I know this might be stretching the laws a bit but i figure that any animal I put an arrow into deserves any and all attempts to recover them.

So i' m curious do you use dogs or would you if the chance presented itself?
