I met you and Robert today at Double G & I promise y'all will be the ones that I call if I am in the need for good dogs. 600 yard track is pretty dam good in my book, I'm sure Mr. Long is tickled pink to have his deer.

Texas is taking counties off, of the illegal to track with dogs list every year as pertaining to tracking wounded animals with dogs. I feel it is a moral obligation to track wounded animals to the best of your ability or resources. I am posting this so everyone is in the "know."

From the Texas hunting regulations:
Under MEANS AND METHODS

• Dogs may not be used to hunt deer in this state.
  • A person is prohibited from using a dog to hunt or pursue deer in this state. A person who violates this law is subject to a fine of $500-$4,000 and/or a year in jail. Additionally, a person's hunting and fishing licenses may be revoked or suspended. In addition, no person may possess a shotgun and buckshot or slugs while in the field with dogs on another person's land during an open deer season in Angelina, Hardin, Harris, Harrison, Houston, Jasper, Jefferson, Liberty, Montgomery, Nacogdoches, Newton, Orange, Panola, Polk Rusk, Sabine, San Augustine, San Jacinto, Shelby, Trinity, Tyler, and Walker counties.
  • It is unlawful to use dogs to trail a wounded deer in the counties listed above.
  • Not more than two dogs may be used to trail a wounded deer in counties not listed above. A "wounded deer" is a deer leaving a blood trail.

__________________________________________________ __________________________________

If you are in one of the counties above and you need a tracking dog, I would like to think if you called a Game Warden and explained that you needed a LEASHED TRACKING DOG to find your wounded animal, I'd like to think the Warden would give you the go ahead, he might even want to be there to witness the recovery of the animal. What better allies to have on our side for tracking, right!
