Parker, I think if you pound pups in a pen, you can definitely do some harm. Those pups have been in that pen a total of 3 times, normally about every 3 weeks. I normally catch them out after about a hour but due to circumstances, had to leave them in. It is a tool, just like a shock collar. I have been using it for years to get puppies started & so far, have had no negative effects. Another two months or so, they will be ready for the woods. I know a lot of people would be taking them to the woods now if they are running but I don't for two reasons. One, they cannot run with the grown dogs & two, I do not want them getting on the wrong hog at 6 1/2 months old. These pups have run loose until they were 5 months old & after running them in the pen some, all I have to do is put them in hog sign & brother, you better believe they can trail the hogs up.
