Hello,

im heading out in search of deer in the coming week and I’m considering bringing one of my dogs along with me for a few days. She is not a hunting dog, medium size, very fit, she has high pray drive but is very obedient.

my question is... if you have hunted big game with a dog along, have you found it negatively impacted your hunt? As far as maybe spooking an animal easier?

Im a little unsure, I've taken her rabbit hunting and shot rabbit with her so she is fine with a firearm and the noise that goes with it. If you have experience in this department I’d love to hear from you. Thanks!
