Title: question Post by: l.d.a.b. kennels on March 22, 2013, 07:28:31 pm Anybody ever took note of how dogs bought outside of east Texas have a problem hitting the thickets in the piney woods? Just asking because I bought a yellow dog out of my stock that I sold as a pup around the Stephenville area brought him back home and he and he has a hard time hitting the thickets. I have a full blood litter mate and a buddy has a full blood litter mate and they are both hell of dogs. The dog I bought back is a good dog hunting pastures and open bottom land. I'm sure he will get better with time. Just wondering if any one else has had to put up with this.

I actually talked to a guy this morning that always hunts river bottom hard woods and he said when he has tried to hunt his dog in the hills he makes a fool of him. Just don't hunt in pines and thickets. Said only way he can get him to hunt there is if its a real hot track. Not use to the briars I reckon.
