Dog Trackers in Grundy County, Illinois

Tracking a wounded deer in the standing corn and thick river bottoms of Grundy County is a difficult task for any hunter to handle alone. When a blood trail goes cold near the Illinois River or vanishes in the heavy cover outside of Morris, a trained tracking dog is your best option for recovery. These dogs are capable of picking up scent lines that are invisible to the human eye, even hours after the shot.

Currently, we have one tracking service listed in the county. Gary Blessing operates out of Morris and is available to help hunters recover game across the local area. Contacting a tracker as soon as you lose the trail gives the dog the best chance of finding your deer before the meat spoils or predators get to it.
