First get em somewhere you know has hogs, like a feeder. Then just chill and ignore them on purpose, they will wanna stick around at first but eventually should get gone. That being said, you can't train the hunt into em. If they got it, they got it, if not, recognize and cut your your losses.

I agree with Tbob...if the pup is already hunting some keep a close watch on him...if he wants to work a track stop and let him work it until he works it out or gives it up...he will learn that you are hunting with him and he will focus more on hunting and not on hunting you...this also helps in increasing his range...also teaches him to be more thorough and allows him to take colder tracks if that is what he wants to do naturally...

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...
A hunting dog is born not made...
