What was that dog trailing? There was no blood. There were ten fresh deer trails going into the woods. How exactly do you think that dog could tell the scent of the shot deer?


I think the only way that would be possible would for there to be trace amounts of blood, undetectable by humans. The only other way is if there were excess interdigital scent deposited, but that seems highly unlikely to me that a dog would know what is too much.
