First off I'm new to having my own dogs. I have two 5 month old pit pups both seen there first pig a few days ago and they tore that sucker up. Raised hell an caught the ears both hold on like champs and the pig is prob twice there size. After some research on here and reading how others trained puppies I decided not to let them catch it anymore till there adult teeth set in with that being said I tried to put them by the hog pen to get them excited they tear the fence up trying to get in so I got in the pen with them on leashes and they won't do anything on the leash I mean nothing but as soon as I let them off the leash they want that pig bad! How do I continue training without them hurting therselves by biting the fence cause the leash is a no go

Your training is done for a while now. All you needed to know is your feeding a dog that should show catch later on and not a dud. The next lttle bit of training is checking them before you start sending them to a bay. But don't let them stand on the outside of the pen barking and biting the wire.

Yea I know them not acting a fool on the lead is good but I figured they would do something with a pig literally few feet away but they just sit there an do absolutely nothing lol. An on the fence as soon as they started ripping on the fence I put them on leashes and walked them away.

Yep put em up let em grow when you think they can handle a hog physically take them to the woods try to have a seasoned dog catch first and send them a couple times of that and you'll be golden.
