I posted a couple weeks ago a video of my two catahoula gyp pups first bay. Anyway i have been letting them in the pen about every 3rd day or so. they have gotten allot stronger at bay and seem to love it, hell icant hardly get them to get out of the pen. Well tonight i put them in and instead of bay they started getting real gritty and started trying to eat the little piggys. what should i do to get them to back off and bay. Bigger pig i guess?? or is there something i should be doing? also my older dogs listen to me when i say stop and will come out when i call them off. these two lil gyps will look at me and go right back to baying. what do yall do to get the dogs to break off baying? thanks

It happens when they get there confidence built up and there workin together. Try puttin them in seperate from each other and see how they do on their own. After that put them on a bigger hog and see how they do, then you are goin to have to put a handle on them like your old dog.. Whether it is by your voice commands or by Electric shock therapy, either way they have to listen to you

Stop putting them in a pen!! Unless you are wanting a bay pen dog. They have an interest in hogs wait til its time to go to the woods. Baying in a pen and baying in the woods are 2 different things, They learn to bay way too close in a pen and that will get them cut up or worse in the woods. IMO

X2 Start doing staged hunts with them. Drag you a hog around and tie it up in the bushes. Make them go find the hog. Start short and increase the distance. Once they get that down, hobble two legs and cut the hog loose. |

All of my pups start in a bay pen and when they get to were there to gritty then its time to graduate them into a bigger pen were the hog is not seen, were they have to track the hog then bay. I graduate mine into a 40 acre pen. After they meet my standards then its time to take them hunting. When you are working them you need to command them over and over on what you want them to do. Never had a problem with my dogs getting cut worse in the woods just because they were started in a bay pen.

I too start my dogs in a pen just to see if they are interested. A 40 acre area that is fenced off to hold hogs in is not considered a bay pen to me. |

i have a buddy with a good fence around 20 acres. i will have to put a piggie out in his property and see what they do with him. i have 42 acres but i have a 4 wire fence around it so the piggies can still migrate through so no 40 acre bay pen for me  thanks for the ideas guys |
