I have dogs that will wind off the box but they will also lie. My dad had a couple Black and Tans that were hell on wheels. It was comical. I have been riding with him and the dogs blow up in the box. Stop at a stand a couple hundred yards away and ask the hunter how long since the deer crossed. Hunter being confused asked how he knew deer crossed. My dad asked if he heard the dogs open. Hunter said yes. Daddy told him that's how I know. At this point the hunter said it had been between 30 and 45 min. My dad said ok and drove on. Those 2 dogs had the best nose I had ever seen on a dog. They were great deer dogs. Not the fastest but would lay in for the duration. To catch them u basically cut them off and hide behind a tree and grabbed as they came by. If not u didn't catch them without killing the deer. The biggest part on teaching a dog to wind is trust and keeping a close eye on the dog. Once u learn its signal u have to trust its a hog. Turn them out and see what happens. Seeing the hogs cross would be a definate plus. Lol good luck to ya and I hope urs don't lie like mine.
