very possible had a couple do that on me before kept hunting them they grew out of in my opinion on any dog is that experince has alot to do with everything whether its striking baying catching loading up.......

their just like humanes some have natural talent some dont but either way they have to train on how to use it which she prob just isnt understanding what her nose is for JMO

My buddy has a cur dog that is just now starting out. He doesnt range out far, and still has alot of puppy in him. When the other dogs bay, he will start running around barking like a retard. Alot of the time he will run the opposite way of the bay wide open! 

I think it is just due to his lack of experience, so we are gonna try to put him on a couple more hogs in the pen and on staged hunts before he goes on another " real " hunt.

i have had the same thing happen before w/ young dogs i'm just startin.  they cant keep up with the big dogs gettin to the bay or they get separtated and scared cause they are alone in an unfamilar place.  I generally try to hunt them more in the daylight until they are able to keep up w/ the big dogs.  i would give them time, they should grow out of it. IMO

the pup thats "runnin like a retard" will eventually figure it out & learn to listen better.  staged hunts should help.  letting other dogs bay, making sure he hears it good, and turning him loose from a distance should help him learn to follow the barks to the bay.  thats how i teach my small pups to go to a bay.
