deerdogva,
Actually there are several areas that are east of the Blue Ridge where hunting with dogs is illegal. I copied and pasted this from the VDGIF website since I'm too lazy to type it
From the VDGIF website: Dogs May Not Be Used For Deer Hunting:
West of the Blue Ridge.
East of the Blue Ridge in Bedford, Fairfax, Franklin, Henry Loudoun, Northampton, and Patrick counties, and Amherst (west of Rt. 29), Campbell (west of Norfolk Southern Railroad), Nelson (west of Rt. 151), Pittsylvania (west of Norfolk Southern Railroad), and the city of Lynchburg.
