Does anyone know where I can buy deer blood? At one time I know it was possible.

I’m looking to start training a puppy to track wounded deer.

Blood is blood. A local butcher shop should be able to set you up with some beef blood.

You don't need blood to train a dog. We follow a blood trail because it is what we can see. Dogs do not smell and follow blood. They follow the scent of the animal.

I have trained dogs for years. Use deer hides, hooves, tails etc. There are several very helpful books on the subject

Don't need deer blood. Go to the store and buy a beef liver.

You aren't training him to track blood. You are training him to scent track. Dogs don't need blood to track a deer.

Use calf liver…..tie on string. Drag on ground…..cut tiny pieces along track as treat…professional tracker gave me this advice…

Dogs don’t trail blood they’re trailing the adrenaline scent a wounded animals gives off.
