This collection captures the moment a shed dog’s training, drive, and nose all converge: the proud locate, the careful pick-up, and the triumphant return. Every photograph documents a retrieve of naturally dropped whitetail and mule deer antlers in the field.
You’ll see puppies on their first finds, seasoned dogs locking onto 300-class sides buried in tall grass, soft-mouth deliveries of fresh winter drops, and those unmistakable tail-wagging celebrations when the antler is finally placed at our feet. From cold winter days to spring green-up, these images honor the partnership between handler and canine that turns miles of walking into moments of pure reward. Enjoy the gallery.
