Blood tracking dachshunds in action

We have several pictures from the United Blood Trackers members who use their dachshunds for tracking wounded deer:

Jack DiTommaso, holding my tracking dog, Eibe, and his father, Tony, at the Posted Sign where we quite the trail after tracking the deer  about  1000 meters after we jumped him.  The deer was very likely not mortally wounded and this was a convenient place to stop.  The hunter was satisfied that we were able to confirm the likely condition of the deer.

Hi Jolanta and John – Here is a picture of Vimy with his 1st deer. Vimy was sired by your Tommy from Laurel's Hexel. Not a real tough track as the deer only went about 80 yards. The deer did go over a hill and make a 90 degree turn. The track was after dark and this did not bother him at all. Vimy did well and now thinks were going to track every time I put him in the truck. 

Thanks for all your assistance at Trackfest. We learned a lot.
