VARedneck,

Nice post about trailing dogs. I see their value, but unfortunately the PA Legislature failed to pass a "Leashed Tracking Dog Law" for finding wounded big game this session.

I am an archery hunter, but have yet to shoot a deer. However, I have archery friends who would have lost wounded deer had they not called up their dogs of various breeds to assist in the blood tracking and in 100% of the cases the dogs were right on the money. No deer was lost to the coyotes. Later, the guys discovered, to their amazement, that using their dogs was not legal.

I wonder how many representatives who voted against the dog tracking law ever tracked a wounded animal?

Adam
