    deer dog training advice

    Was after any training tips or methods on training for my wanna be deer dog.I have a two year old lab/viszla cross. From a pup i just did basic obedancy training with him he heels, sits, stays on
    hand signals but im not really sure where to go from here. I took him out hunting a few weeks ago and shot a deer that did not go down right away which he took off after and grabbed by the neck and dragged down. I was not really happy about this but it was hard to stay mad when i knew i had a fair chance of loosing the animal otherwise.Do you think its allright for him to chase after the shot?? or should he not be chasing at all.one things for sure he definatly is keen on the deer, carrying it out he would not leave the bloody thing alone.Now im worried next time i see an animal he will bolt on me. It might be months before see another. Any Ideas??
