I think the main reason dogs eat the leg bones is to get to the marrow (it's really good stuff).
My husband will use an ax or hatchet to chop deer leg bones into mince-bone and skin before he gives them to the dogs.
Just the other day I used the closed end of my heavy metal fence post driver (I didn't want to hunt up a sledge hammer) to bash big cow bones open so my Beagles could eat the marrow. It worked great when I put the leg bones on a big rock before I bashed them.
And as far as deer gut piles: The stomachs are prime stuff. If you can talk the hunters into cutting them open, emptying the contents and then bagging the tripe you would really have some great dog food.
Where are you that you have to draw for a doe, CJ?
Here in Oklahoma we are over run with them. I think you can take two for sure, maybe even three, I'd have to check on that. Here you buy "tags", either for bucks or does.
Ah, heres the regulation:
The combined season limit for deer archery, youth deer gun, deer muzzleloader and deer gun seasons is no more than six (6) deer per individual. This limit may include no more than two (2) antlered deer.
So, here we prefer you take "antlerless" deer, either young bucks or does.

Hey Becky, wow, that sure is something. At one time, many years ago, between Bob and I we may have been able to bag those numbers, but not any more and never those doe numbers.
We’re in the interior of British Columbia. You’d think in our vast wilderness the game would be more abundant but they’re doing a pretty tight job of management with the lawful hunters.
You can see that the only female species allowed this year were Whitetails. 21 days from Oct 10 – 31. This was the first time on these guys in about the last 10 years. Mule deer, which Bob got this year, have no doe season. No cow moose or mature bulls either but there is 10 days on cow elk down in Kootenay area.
We're a large province and a few other areas have a bit more access, but not our particular area.
A full copy the entire provincial regs can be found here.
