Another great tracking season for Tim Nichols and his Bavarian Mountain Bloodhound Bruno

We have written about Tim Nichols from Granville, NY many times. It looks like the Deer Search's Schlechtingen Award will go to him again for the highest number of calls taken during the 2010 tracking season. In 2010 Tim took 66 calls and found 24 deer and one bear. No, Tim is not retired, and he does all his tracking while holding a full-time job. Bruno, a four-year-old Bavarian Mountain Bloodhound imported from Poland, is his canine tracking partner. Below are some pictures of Tim and Bruno's finds.
