Great idea fishing_ bobo, wouldn't have thought of that! Where can you get hog scent? I think I saw some in my nite lite book.

MOM4HOGS,

I tested for nose and winding abiity and then tested for trailing. I used beef liver for my tests and it worked fine...used hunger to my advantage. When the pups are young the test needs to be for which pups to keep for hunting and breeding... Of course hog scent would be better if sprayed on the liver. When they are young I think that the liver would be the reward at the end of the trail but the hog scent would re-enforce the training for hog hunting...in other words you would be killing two birds with one stone...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
