Wounded Deer Tracking dog for the Sam.

[jhunter77]

I am hesitant to put this out there but I am about 10min from the Sam. I have a black lab that tracks very well. I will be glad to help a thber out this season if you get one that runs a little far and I am not too busy or hunting myself. I prefer to keep my number private but shoot me a message and I will txt you my number. I like helping folks, and hate to see meat waste. Hopefully all your shots are true, but if not. Feel free to keep my number and hopefully we can help you out.

Great gesture.

Go to know. I'd like to see your dog work.

Not wanting to rain on your parade but I don’t think it is legal to use a dog in that part of the state

Only in these counties...

Angelina, Hardin, Jasper, Nacogdoches, Newton, Orange, Sabine, San Augustine, Shelby, and Tyler counties


But...there may be additional regs in the SHNF

As far as I know it is legal in all of the Sam.

I just searched the WMA handbook and couldn't find anything prohibiting tracking dogs.

It was my understanding it was legal, I have reviewed the manual and have not seen anything that would prevent it, but if there is please let me know, I have no intention of doing something that would be against the law or in a gray area. I just hate to see deer go to waste.
