This is just my own experience with help dogs......

I think that most young dogs just starting out are help dogs until they learn the ropes. By that I mean that we usually send our pups out to hunt with an older more experienced dog. Until the pup learns what it is supposed to do in different situations, it helps the older dog. It should eventually be considered a strike dog or if not, then it would be considered a cull.
