You can train most any dog to do most anything but to hunt ? He will do what he wants but the more effort you spend in training to be on the game of your choice some pick up fast some don't some will get after a hog some won't some might tree like a king you never know

Opportunity and encouragement with a lil direction. If it's in him he will do it.

I gave a 10 week old pup to my brother because he wanted a blood trailing deer dog...he never trained the dog for anything so he gave him back to me at 2.5 years old. I put him in the bay pen 1 time and he bayed like a champ, took him to the woods and he took to hunting about as good as his siblings and I really couldn't tell the difference...the bay split and he took his own hog about a mile and swam the brazos river after that hog...we didn't catch that hog but he was a good strike dog from day one...the only thing at first that I didn't like was that he didn't honor a bay very well...he wanted to run and bay his own hog...after a few months he was a decent team player...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog... A hunting dog is born not made...
