Tracking Dogs for Finding Wounded Deer is the first ever English language book on the topic of using dogs for recovering shot deer.

It's every hunter's goal to achieve a one-shot kill, but occasionally that doesn't happen. As most of us know, dogs can be a very effective way of finding animals that do not drop on the spot.

But what's the best way to go about this? What breeds are best? What traits should you look for when selecting an individual dog to train? How do you train them? What tracking methods are suited to deer with certain types of wounds? What equipment is needed? How can a tracking dog be a family dog, too?

These and many more questions are covered in this exhaustive work by tracking expert, John Jeanneny.
