ITs mostly genetics in my opinion, BUT, heres a helpful suggestion:

You need to have a honey hole of sorts, a place where you can consistently find hogs and hog sign, if they stand and fight instead of running like crazy, that's real helpful. Now, take a pup or two at a time. too many and they'll just play and set themselves back in the long run. find smoking hot hog sign, a wallow, a rub, under a feeder, and walk that pup into it, turn him loose only when you know he smells it and wants to find the hog. lettem go, lettem find the hog and lettem bay it for a durn long while. do this often, and do it for a good long time, till you take the young dog to a craphole spot with no sign and it consistently leaves out exited looking for sign.
