If it's a problem you can break them off of deer and other unwanted game with breaking scents, which are scents extracted from glands of whichever unwanted game you're having a problem with. You spread some of this on a rag and tie it around the dogs neck. Usually after being bombarded with this scent for a couple hours, a few days in a row, they'll never want to smell it again in their life, let alone chase after it.


Here's the scents if you need them:
