I only wish more people would look into it and utilize the services. Each year I post that recovery thread, each year we see wounding threads from states that allow tracking and yet most don't even try it. Usually it's free, even if it cost gas money all animals recovered from using dog services are so worth what little it might cost, if any.

Here's Axel not long after birth. LOL Just thought you might like this one too.

Initial cost of the dog, Feed bill, shots, tied down and can't go on hunting vacations without a dog sitter, fleas, ticks, etc...it is just easier to shoot a deer in the lungs than buy a dog.

PreacherTony

not that much ....around $400

They eat VERY little and there are only a few shots in their lifetime ... plus they make GREAT companions


there is a LINE for people to watch my dogs ... just gotta have real friends


too easy to prevent ... and cheap ....so it's a non-issue

Unlike you, obviously, animals sometimes drop out of sight for everyone else ...

Don, I have had 1 or 2 dogs at a time my whole life. I have 3 kids and a wife. Packing up and going on vacation really doesnt happen any way. And Tony I am trying to learn something on these dogs, if you are looking for a place to shred Don and his thinking find some other place thanks.

Vars and I haveworked in Illinois for a couple of different outfitters for the past several years and we also do a lot of tracking in Ga. during the late season. We've been members of United Blood Trackers since it's inception, I do get paid as a guide when working in Illinois but not as a tracker. The tracking work is a labor of love that I take on as an extra and I would say that 99% of the tracker's you calldon't expect pay for their services.Vars and I havefound a lot of deer for the "double lung brigade" there's just something about a huge set of antlersthat can unnerve a guy. I'm trying tolearn how to upload pictures so I can put a few up. This might take me alittle while.

What kind of dog is Vars?

Bavarian Mountain Hound. If you get John's Jeanney's book he's in it. I'm still trying to figure this picture posting thing out. It's hell being computer illiterate.
