this is something i like to do with puppies. they can be pretty good trackers before they're ever old enough to go to the baypen. just be patient with them, and it will become a fun game to them, which makes training a lot easier.
you can also start them winding by putting a pig in a cage upwind and not laying a track at all. if you dont leave a jackpot, just pet and praise a lot when they find it.
90 percent of your training is now done (besides obedience, which should also be done at this stage), and he's not even old enough to hunt.
when he's ready, get in 2 or 3 good trips to the baypen, and all that's left is woods time.
