Ok. Now I have a question to add to this. Is there anyway to get my pups hunting(once it's time) without started dogs. I don't know really any one except my uncle who hog dogs. he lives 1.5 hours away. Now I could get them out there every once in a while. And drop the dogs in the 10 acre pen on the ranch he runs that is stocked with pigs and see how they do. But I won't be able to do that Or get them around finished dogs near as much as I probably need to. I have a lot of property around me with hogs so could I just drop em and let them figure it out? Do I set up a lot of mock hunts for them and then see what they'll do? Or am I just going to have to figure out how to get them around finished dogs?
.
I trained my dogs as pups with no finished dogs I did couple mock hunts a ton of woods time and put them in the bay pin 3 times a week got them so turned on that they hated pigs more than any thing I wood put one dog in the pen and let the others go to the bay to learn them to honer the bay cuz once you have one strike one if your other pups don't go to the bay your dead in the water I walk hunted to get my start
