Training Pups

I agree completely, I think it was a good way to teach my young dogs. A few times I thought they had something caught but they were trashing. After dry holing them a bunch of times like that, I don’t mind them trashing on an armadillo. I’ll scold them a little but I don’t get real worked up over it. I’ll give them a good whipping over trashing on a possum just because I like possums. It helped me to confirm that they’re actually hunting though and not just running roads.

It helped a lot with teaching one or my dogs to load up. He loads up fine at the house but once he starts hunting he doesn’t like to load back up. He will try to slip off and keep hunting. Having some roads for the first time I’d be a fool not to take advantage of them. I made him run behind the truck for about 3 miles, I’d slow down and right before he got to the tail gate I’d speed up again just out of his reach. It took a few hunts of running him down
