Blood Tracking article
Here's an article I have written for Leerburg.com on blood tracking

Main site on blood tracking

 


Loke is an experiment in a way: I've thought about training a Doberman from good working lines as a blood tracking dog for a long time. In his pedigree there are a lot of great Schutzhund tracking dogs and dogs with a lot of prey drive, great working capabilities and temperament. So far the puppy looks ideal - focused and very interested in tracking blood. Loke & André

Here is Loke - the new blood tracking dog as a pup.


Loke on his first grouse hunt, 9 months old.

His tracking so far, at the age of 3.5 months:

I've laid a few short blood tracks for him down wind and on vegetation free ground to encourage him to track with a deep nose. He has been eager, but suprisingly focused at this young age. We'll try to establish this slow focused style which is so beneficial when tracking wounded game. Loke seems to have a very fine nose.

The first track. 


Two titled blood tracking dogs and one upcoming.
