Dexter the Deer Dog

Dexter worked hard for this young Maryland hunter today. Definitely made a new friend

The dreaded call occurred yesterday. 1 of the 3 that I feel we left behind was discovered. No excuses. Sometimes we’re decent and other times we suck. We’ve been battling through some very poor conditions this season and I attribute that to some of our struggles. But at the end of the day I am overall responsible. We are human and this is real life. You see our triumphs and our struggles. I will always be transparent. Through the adversity we grow and get stronger 💪🧡 We’ll continue to bring our best, sometimes it’s just not good enough.

"I had a good shoulder shot! There is blood everywhere!"
***BREAKING NEWS***

That doesn't exist 🤦🏽‍♀️

Then the next question....

"How good is your dog?"

My exact reply 😒:
"She is only as good as your shot...."

Guys, shoulder shots are PROVEN to be one of the LEAST fatal hits on a deer, go for higher percentage killing shots please. Accidents happen, but this PSA if for the people who shoulder shoot on purpose.... Please stop, it doesn't matter if it is gun or bow... DON'T DO IT!

Give Us A Call, If You Don't See Him Fall !!

We received a call yesterday from a guy we met during Dexter’s 1st season. He just watched his buddy put an arrow through a target buck. The buck bounced off and offered a 2nd shot that was believed to have missed. My friend quickly recognized gut material and contacted us from the hit site. A plan was developed and we scheduled to meet up at the 24 hour mark. The challenges of the rut were everywhere once again. Bucks were chasing several doe as we were getting ready. No biggie, we recently track in a wild deer farm setting 😂🤣 With several distractions around us, we took extra time at the hit site so Dexter could absorb all the information that he possibly could. I recognized his change of behavior and we began the track. It was over before we even caught our stride. The 2nd arrow had hit low, but appeared to cut the pyloric artery. Great job by the hunter to have the awareness of getting a second arrow in this animal. We really weren’t needed, but it was a great day for Dexter to get another victory. CONGRATULATIONS ON A GREAT PA WHITETAIL. Thank you for trusting us with your recovery 💪🧡

The Pet Wild Deer Farm Track will go down in history as one of the craziest. As we pulled down Labrador Lane, I was on the phone with another tracker, what the heck did I just get involved with? There are deer everywhere!!! I ended the call and sat there in disbelief belief. I knew where the shot was and there are deer everywhere. Dexter is losing his mind and is now in complete prey drive. I had the hunter and his dad attempt to clear them off. I open the door and Dexter is completely going insane, I shut the door. As I’m preparing him the deer are all coming back and more have joined them. One is walking up to us in the same line the buck ran off 24 hours prior in the nicely groomed lawn. We attempt to run it and Dexter is a mess but is still heading the right direction. I can hear deer out ahead of us and Dexter is now going towards them. I stopped and told the hunter and dad that we’re probably not going to pull this off. I took Dexter back towards the line and now a rabbit flushes within 5’ of him. He paid it no attention, he was back in the scent cone and now tracking. Somehow we managed to work through the multiple distractions and pollution. Dexter began to air scent and so did I. We were getting close. I looked out ahead and let out a celebratory yell. I can’t believe we pulled this off. HOLY CRAP!!! CONGRATULATIONS TO THE YOUNG MAN AND HIS 1ST RACKED BUCK!!! Thank you for trusting us with the recovery of your trophy. I still am blown away by it and will tell this story for many years to come 💪🧡
I just found the perfect place for training lines and test lines for the tracking event next spring 😉

Sorry for the delay, we have been a little busy. We were contacted by a hunter soon after his shot. He quickly recognized a hit that was back and knew that he would need assistance. His buddies were long time followers and they pointed him in our direction. We took the line at 18 hour mark, I was a little concerned and was praying that he was expired. A line that lacked any visible sign was the task at hand. I was very thankful for the overnight moisture that Mother Nature had provided. Dexter took a second to lock on and we were off. A brief stop in the creek to wet his whistle and be a Labrador was kind of comical. Back to work, nutball. A little further and we crossed over. I could see the beast piled up out ahead. Almost 400yds in less than 8 minutes, with a water break 😂 CONGRATULATIONS TO THE HUNTER ON ONE HECK OF A PA WHITETAIL!!! Thank you for trusting us with recovering your trophy 💪🧡
