training a dog to wind.

PS, its a lot better if you have a dog on the hood if you have a low level truck so you can watch the dog as you are driving down roads or by grainfeilds or river bottoms, a good hood dog used to bring $1000 more when i was hunting tons, greatest dog i ever saw was a blackmouth cur named Whitey and a blackmouth red cur named Red, Lavon Davis and Billy Don Blevins were still both hunting together way back then down here. There was older guy that hunted with them as well who had a great dog from Angleton but the dogs name and the owners name escapes me. I owned a bobcat dog that would strike off the top of a dogbox if it was really a hot cat track. I did hunt with a guy who had a Old Line Black and Tan Foxhound that would strike hogs going 70 miles an hour down us hiway 77, he was a wolfe dog but would switch to hogs when he got around him, prob was if he heard a wolf going to the hog scent he would run it and all of the other dogs would come back to the truck fraid of getting shocked out, we just used him to start when it was really dry and not many hogs around the ranch, now days there so many hogs everywhere its crazy. There is no excuse for not having a hood dog if you have the time and place to train them, they are tons of fun to bet on if somebody you hunting with has one as well, and they keep from wearing out all of the pack roading if you are on a big ranch or its 100 at midnight like down here sometimeslol
