I have seen plenty good dogs that won't do crap on a rig but set them on the ground and there good. Lot of dogs smell the scent there just not reacting to it. There is a lot that can go in to it. Ya you can't put any dog up there and they might do it but a good one is way different. Heck my bull dog will cry or bark on the rig to don't make him a rig dog

You have had good strike dogs that if you put them in a spot to rig that wouldnt do it well, once you did it a few times for them to clue in? Im sure some strike dogs wont clue in/cross over but most ive seen do.
When my CD wines and I cut them loose and they catch a pig I defiantly call him or her a rig dog! But I know what you mean, some breeds like cow or hounds/bird dogs are better suited for it. That said ive had 1 dogo and 1 scott bred ab that were as good at that as most, came in handy winding crops ...
