I have to agree Ryan, I think the dog may be following the freshest scent.
Maybe a good idea would be to train the dog to do both things separately, so have a command for "find" to find what you've just shot, and "seek" or something else to track the live one.
SilentScope, since you have an adult dog and have only had him a month, it will take you both some time to know what each other means. Maybe you could just concentrate on finding the live deer first and tracking the dead ones will come after that. Once he learns that a shot means he swaps into "find it" mode, he and you should come right
hes very good at finding dead deer parts, iv had him "go" find hides and hocks in the weeks following today. but yes i know hes an adult but hers coming along very well as far as being a hunting dog for me.
