Ryder's Recovery Services

Today marks 2 yrs since we lost Ryder 💔 We miss him everyday. I am forever thankful for the memories we had and the wonderful people we met along the way!

Please remember the importance of tick prevention for both your pet and yourself 🙏

I totally agree with this. No need to go so far forward. The lungs go back further than you think. My son shot his doe in this exact spot and it was double lung. Shoulder shots do not end good. Aim just a little bit back.

SHOT PLACEMENT ADVICE!!! Please read! With so many deer that we and our other trackers have tracked during October showing back up on trail cam with big shoulder scars, we also take time to educate on our recommended shot placement. If a deer is broadside we recommend with archery equipment that you shoot at this spot. Guaranteed double lung, no matter what broadhead you use, this is a dead deer within 100 yards unless something weird happens. STAY OFF THE SHOULDER! Now, you have your proponents of the “vital v”, if you hit in it exactly as described, dead deer. Here to there is ZERO margin for error. A little back on the v shot and your calling us, a little forward and your searching and possibly calling us. This 3D deer, courtesy of www.whitetaildeertracking.com shows that you have more margin for error when dead center a deer. A little forward and they are still dead. A little back from there and the deer is still dead amd recoverable. Thank you Bloodtrailz for the use of this model! Check out the BloodTrailz app and join today!

Thanks to my husband and kids for this beautiful gift ❤️🐾🪽

In memory of Ryder. My heart dog and tracking partner ❤️

Its been almost 4 months since Ryders passing. Still miss him everyday 💔 I'd like to get a tattoo in his memory. Something incorporating deer tracks and paw prints. Other possibilities could include antlers or arrows. I'm thinking it would go on my wrist so can't be too big. I have added some examples in the comments. Let me know what you think or if anyone has an idea for a design I'd love your input.

One month since you left us 💔

Unfortunately we had to make the hard decision to put Ryder down this morning. I never imagined when I started this tracking service this first season would also be our last. Ryder loved tracking deer and so did I. We had so many amazing experiences that i will never forget and met so many wonderful people along the way! I want to thank you all for your prayers and support. I have attached photos of Ryder doing what he loved.

I'm sorry to report that Ryder has taken a turn for the worse😔 despite all our efforts to save him he continues to decline and has no chance of recovery. If he makes it through the night we will make the trip to the vet in the morning to have him put down. I'm still in shock and disbelief that this is happening. He was a perfectly healthy 3yr old dog. I knew about ticks and lymes disease but I had no idea it could be so severe or deadly. I always had Seresto collars on my dogs and thought if one got past me when I was checking them that the collar would protect them, I guess I was wrong. ( I have been told the collar only works if it's tight on the neck allowing one finger space. Ryder had lost weight during the tracking season and the collar became loose)I wish I had known more about the dangers of lymes as well as researched more about the preventative measures available such as the vaccine and chewable/ ingestable tablets. Please take all the precautions you can to protect your dog so you do not have to go through what we have in the last week.🙏🙏

Good News on Ryder!! His blood pressure has come down significantly but is still above normal. He is eating everything they give him and tolerating all of the medications well, so they are sending him home tonight 😁 Some of his lab results have already shown improvement and it's only been 24 hours!!! Keep the prayers coming that his bloodwork and kidney levels continue to improve 🙏
