I disagree. I think some dogs hunt better at different styles. Pull up to sign and cast the dogs. Road them. Walk hunt them. Horse back. Wheelers. I think it would be hard to find a dog that hunts the same no matter how they are hunted.
My pot lickers were never hunted at night till I got them. It shows.
Your rite dogs like that dont come up for sell very often, and like I said it separates the GOOD dogs from the FINISHED dogs, If they wont do it all they are still on the road to being finished, and if you sold me a finished dog that didnt handle anything I threw at him then he is finished in your situation but not mine... making him started, not finished. Im not dogging anybodys dog, but if they cant do it all then they still need training.. Brings up the point that there is no finished dog 2yrs old even tho he will find a hog there is not enough hours in 2 years to finish a dog completely. there are plenty good dogs that consistently find hogs off a 4wheeler running down the road in fresh hog signs, or off horses where you walk them up in hog signs, or in the day when you see hogs to point them to,some go deep, some stay close... why wouldnt anybody want a dog that did all that and knew when to do it on his own? If its a hog dog it should not matter when where or how... most folks never been in the woods with a truely jam up finished hog dog, and those that have no what im talking about. I dont mean to offend anybody tho, if you like your dog and he hunts the way you want him to thats all that counts... I guess i just expect alot out of mine and like pushing them to make their whole life a learning experience
