Ugly Dog Deer Recovery

11/08/2020

Clyde got his first find last night!!! He had a few hang ups but all in all I was very pleased with his work as a six month old puppy. This was also a great night because Liv was able to join me. I’m hoping after last night he realizes how much more fun this is when we find the deer at the end. We love tracking and are happy to come out and give it our best for you guys. Good luck and stay safe.

With deer season coming in this week, my partner and I are ready to get on a live track. We have continued to train and I am a little anxious/ nervous to see what he’s like. I cannot guarantee a 100 percent find with any dog but we will try if you happen to lose a deer. Just remember after the shot and you have determined it may be a bad hit I recommend a minimum of 6 hours before trying to track and if there is little blood it will be easier for a dog if the timber is not tracked up with human scent. The less human imprint the easier the dog can track. Good luck and be safe.

Well I haven’t got any pictures of him just standing still so I thought I would post my first video of him training for deer season. Everyone who follows the page meet my next tracking partner, Clyde. I named him after my grandpa and have always wanted to have a hound named Clyde. This was the first track that had turns in it since we started training. Just hoping he turns out to be as good as Ollie was. We will continue to update on training progress through this page. I hope to have him on several tracks this fall.

Well we have the next member of ugly dog deer recovery in training. He’s not an ollie yet but we will get there. He has a high drive for food which makes the training process so much easier. Don’t lose our number I am hoping to have him ready by shotgun season. I am sorry for the people who have called already and I had to refer you hopefully you can find a great tracker to help you out. I will keep everyone updated on progress and see when we can get him in the woods this fall. Happy hunting.

It is with great sadness that I announce the passing of Ollie. We had looked so forward to many tracks this deer season. I am not quiting tracking but I will not have another dog for this season. Hopefully by next fall I will have another one trained and ready to go I am just praying that it will be half the deer tracker that Ollie was. He taught me more than I taught him and I will miss that. Thank you everyone for the kind words and thoughts during this time.

One of our unsuccessful tracks from last year. I believe this deer made it and will be bigger this year. Their hard to find when their still running around makin babies!
