If the dog has a tracking collar, it must be left where it is. State laws in both VA and NC make tampering with hunting dogs and tracking collars a crime. The owners will be tracking and retrieving the dog. If there is a phone number on the collar, a courtesy call can be made to the owner. If the dog has a normal collar with contact information, attempt to call the owner directly. If the dog does not have any collar or contact information, notify the Comm Center (828-298-2491) so they can contact the appropriate agency to retrieve the dog.
