 In my opinion when someone says "train" when pertaining to hunting dogs, it just means smoothing off the rough edges of natural instinct. We can put a handle on a dog and teach it basic commands but I think that a dog is going to range, and hunt more by what its DNA allows it to do. We can give the dog more oportunities to hone its skills but we cant change its natural instincts. Being a young pup, it may stick with the dogs that you run it with. But I still think that if long range is in its blood, it will show up sooner or later.

 This is only my opinion. Smiley
