We keep our dogs inside the house almost all the time anyways, regardless of whether or not it's hunting season. But, we have a fenced-in yard, so when we do let them outside to play, we don't really fret about hunters.Do you keep your dogs inside during deer hunting season? My dogs don’t chase deer but they can sense that people are in the woods behind our house. I try to keep them inside when I can’t go out with them during hunting season.
