Thread: Deer dog chasing deer

Recently had issue with young puppy chasing deer. Around 1 year old.


She has locked up on a deer and stalked one, it slipped away before could make a shot.

She has really good range in bush untill there is fresh deer scent in front of her and just takes off chasing. I have tried a short leash but in tight bush it is more annoying than helpful.

done a lot of scent work with her, shes good in training but different when live deer scent on the ground/spooked deer.

Anyone got some ideas on training/methods to help.
