Willie, our mini-doxie, loves to chase deer. Here we are helping him don blaze orange for the upcoming gun season. Actually, dachshunds are famed for burrowing after badgers but right now the ground is frozen so he has to settle for pursuing Bucky & Bambi.
Our beloved yellow lab Max, who is now in heaven, preferred retrieving golf balls.
Post your hunting dog pics here.

My Wirehair Dachshund Zebadiah is my hunting companion. Weiner dogs are great rabbit and ground hog dogs, when the bigger dogs get tied up in the thick underbrush he just keeps going.

Great looking doxie! Love the breed, along with labs and just about any other hound.
 
Sorry to hear about your Ginger.

This is our Ginger. She's a Catahoula mix. In this photo she's about 7 months old. She's 10 months now. Still a bit of a handful, but she is very loving and faithful. She just doesn't understand that she is a 55lb dog. In this photo she is enjoying a bit of coffee and the morning internet one morning while we were on vacation in our RV.

I have been told by many owners that this was a hot dog to own.
 
This is an old picture of dogs long since gone. Their vet named them the "Rodent Patrol" and it was apt. They spent hours working over our desert chipmunk herd. Willie was a Jack and Snickers was a 7 pound minnie dachshund (sorta). The differences between them were startling. While Willie enjoyed the chase and the kill, Snickers was the true hunter. She'd sit for hours watching for chipmunk activity. Willie'd sleep with one eye open...watching Snickers. When she moved, so would he.

Willie had a grand sense of smell, when his nose went straight up, for example, I knew deer were about, but he had absolutely no instinct for tracking. Snickers, on the other hand, would track like a bloodhound. One day she was trailing a jackrabbit down our dirt road that Willie had driven into the sage. Unbeknownst to Snickers, Willie had gotten behind the rabbit and was pushing it back toward us. It exited the sage at full speed at exactly the same time as Snickers got there. She executed a form perfect lion leap and connected only to be booted clear across the road by the rocket that was headed her way.

Our house was on the edge of civilization in the center of a mule deer wintering range. It was quite amusing to watch a determined 7 pound dachsund (sorta) roust out 10 to 15 adult mule deer with every intention of bringing one down. The amazing thing is that the deer appeared to believe it too.

This is our puppy dog Phoebe. She's a mix between beagle and rat terrier, looks like a small black and white beagle. At home she only hunts for table scraps, then I started bringing her to work in south Texas. Didnt take her long to discover the rabbits, she had no clue what it was but she knew she was supposed to chase it!

This dog is spoiled rotten! My wife and I do not have any kids yet so we pretty much treat her like she is our child.
