Default Hunting big game with a dog

Read this in the 2020 regs. Hunting with my dog could be helpful if I watch her for signs she gives off when she sees animals but she could also scare off animals because she enjoys barking at them. Now I just have to find a pack for her.
A person may be accompanied by a dog while hunting big game in WMUs 400 – 446. The dog must be a pack dog and leashed, or within 50 m
of the hunter and under direct command and control. The dog is prohibited from tracking, scenting, pursuing or chasing big game.

If your dog takes to chasing Wildlife, during hunting season , his life span may be severely reduced.
