Sarge Had A Close Call
Attention trackers, we need to start lobbying our legislatures to allow us to carry large caliber sidearms for personal protection. Tracking is a dangerous business.
This buck had a broken front leg. Shot with a crossbow.
Miller Deer Tracking 810 240 4891 Michigan and Ohio
Insane amount of blood for over 400 yards. We found him bedded in a standing cornfield. Sargent actually went past him and as he was looping back I'm fighting my way back through the cornstalks holding his 30' long leash when we jumped him and instead of the buck running away he charged Sargent hitting him in the head. U can see a piece of hair removed from Sarge's forehead.
I started screaming at this spooked the buck. I wasn't prepared for this intense situation because I was fully expecting to find the buck dead. MICHIGAN laws prevent me from dispatching any deer. Only the hunter can. In this case, my client didn't even have his crossbow and my pistol was in my backpack.
Even if I did dispatch to protect my dog, chances are I'll get charged for poaching!!! The buck runs off and ends up laying down in a river. When we returned he was pretty much lifeless from bleeding out. The artery was cut inside the leg and the other leg was broken.
Using our pets to help hunters is very dangerous and hopefully one day our state changes the laws so it makes it easier to dispatch deer and to protect our family pets.

I Am In A Wilderness Area With No Internet Or Cell Service
OK, it is deer season and I am loving it and not spending much time on blogger.
Sorry, I will try to post more often, but I am in deer season and wilderness areas and I don't have an internet service connection 24/7. I have great photos and will try to catch up with new posts soon.
Here is my good friend Paul Couget with his red leopard Catahoula Cur blood tracking dog Roux
and what is forecast to be the new world record whitetail deer.
Paul tracked this deer in northern Alabama and it had a rack in excess of 100 points.
Paul is a professional tracker and trainer of blood tracking dogs
and he is near New Orleans, La. and can be reached at 504 250 7456
I am practising using a drone camera in anticipation of producing my new TV show next year
I will try to post an aerial video as asap.
In the meantime check out these Catahoula Cur puppies who never seen a hog until this day.
Here is another deer Paul tracked a couple of days before Thanksgiving.
OK folks that settles it, when I am rich AND famous, I am buying a ranch in northern Alabama.
Any questions?
Now y'all keep warm, stay dry and be safe. Don't forget to teach the young hunters to always leave the woods cleaner than they found it, and always respect the animals that put the meat on our table.
I don't know about y'all but I am so blessed and putting more meat in the freezer as a professional blood tracker and having more fun tracking other people's deer than I ever did sitting in a tree.
Here is the thought for the day: If we let 'them' take our guns, what next? Our Bow and Bowie knife?
You want it? Take it!
I am Marcus de la Houssaye and you can contact me by email; catahoula1@gmail.com
Sorry, I don't want to answer a cell phone during deer season if I can help it.
Don't forget...
Come on smile...
