Dog Trackers in Iroquois County, Illinois

If you are hunting the creek bottoms or timber stands around Ashkum and Donovan, you know how quickly a wounded deer can disappear into the thick cover common in Iroquois County. Losing the blood trail is a frustrating reality, but local dog trackers are available to help recover your harvest. These handlers use trained tracking dogs to pick up scents that are often impossible for a human to follow through heavy brush or cornfields.

There are currently two primary contacts serving the county, including Ray Holohan in the Ashkum area. Whether you are tracking a buck across private farmland or near the state fish and wildlife areas, calling a tracker early gives you the best chance of a successful recovery. Make sure to mark your last blood and clear the area before the tracker arrives to ensure the dog can work the line effectively.
