How many dogs are allowed per hunter during deer season?

During deer season in California, hunters are permitted to use only one dog. This regulation is in place to manage the impact of hunting on wildlife populations and ensure ethical hunting practices. Allowing a single dog helps minimize disturbances to deer and other wildlife, promoting conservation efforts and supporting responsible hunting. Utilizing more than one dog could lead to increased pressure on deer populations and potentially disrupt the natural balance of the ecosystem. Thus, the regulation aims to create a sustainable hunting environment while ensuring the welfare of both the wildlife and the hunting practice itself.
