Blood Dog Trainer?
 

my dad has a jack russel that is less than a year old, is there any body that i can bring the dog to that can train him to blood trail a deer? I don't have the time or capabilities to do this my self, not enough property or deer blood, so i would like to get some one to do this, if it isn't too expensive, any trainer recommendations, preferably closer to lafayette or surrounding areas

Boeuf river retrievers likely one of the best in the state in that department .scseay@aol.com or call her 1-318- 914-0296

I used to work mine with deer tails in the yard. I'd put him in the shop where he couldn't see, tie a string to the tail and drag it through the yard without him knowing. Do some zigs and zags through the grass. Tie it in a tree at a stopping point. The better he gets, make the course a lil harder. That lil dog was a man. It got a lil old getting calls after dark to bring Tiger to find a deer.

Pm wtretrievers. I'm sure Jeff can set you up with somebody

With her husband recently dying and her having a heart attack a few weeks ago you're lucky she even answered the phone! She still breeds some nice dogs though!

Whatever works - works I guess. I never train a trailing dog with a hide, or deer tail. This gets the dog wanting to trail ever deer in the woods it comes across, and the one with the freshest scent wins his nose. I always start a dog on blood, then go to blood and guts mixed. The last week or two is spent using a deer hoof saturated in the scent of deer blood, but not putting any liquid out on the ground. When a deer is shot, it secreets a scent from the hoof, like a human running from the crime scene that a K9 tracks.

Hardest thing to do, is let the dog learn to pick up the scent (cast) when he comes off of scent trail. Any dog can track with his nose on the ground and good scent. What happens to the dog when he looses the scent makes the dog!

The tails worked fine. What happens to the dog when he looses the scent makes the dog! You are exactly right! When they are a natural, they are a natural! When they can track in water is when you have a real dog!
