Hittman,

I agree with what you are saying except for letting the pup bay until it is tired. I believe in letting the pup bay a good while but always take him out and praise him before he can have a chance to burn out. And don't put him in the pen every day but just enough for the pup to learn how to stop a hog and maybe a tune up every now and then to put hog on his mind.

It's kind of like a poor kid who doesn't get to each much ice cream. He is always wanting more and if he gets too much he probably won't want any more for a long while.
