Re: Natural Tree or Trained to tree?
Good natural tree dogs for coon are not hard to get. Buy a tree dog pup at about 3-4 months old,put a handle and get to know it for about 3-4 months, put out a few feeders on creek bank. Take it by its self to each turn out 3 times a week. If it’s not striking running and treeing in about 6-10 trips...

Re: Deer Hunting With Hounds
Perk-Al , I’ve been thinking all day but I can’t come up with anything to top those two stories. I’m gonna call you’ll the winners.

Re: Deer Hunting With Hounds
Good conversation Al but I guess we will never know. Just have to ponder that one for awhile.

Re: Deer Hunting With Hounds
Al, I watched 4 nice size walker dogs bay a medium size doe in water about knee high. She had them all whipped down and the left out pretty quick. The deer wasn’t hurt at all.

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs
Al, I haven’t found it really easy to trash break dogs with the e-collar. I thought I wanted to start bobcat hunting about 20 yrs ago. It took me about 5 yrs but I finally realized where I hunted didn’t have enough bobcat to justify just cat. I can put a good handle on one really quick but I’ve done...

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs
Perk, from what I’m reading you and I probably hunt similar terrain and dogs more than anyone else that respond to these post. The macho lingo in the running dog circle is a lot of times just that. I’m sure you have heard someone say ( a dog should shut up and catch up). I want my pack to run the ra...

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs
Perk, does it take a different type dog to run ( I guess you’re talking about people who run in row crop fields) in a bean, cotton or corn field. I don’t run in farming land.

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs
Perk, I always got rid of dogs like that. I called them swingers and they usually put more gaps in a race than I wanted. The ones I had couldn’t keep a race going by themselves.

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs
Perk, you mentioned something about dogs competing against each other . I road hunt my dogs and there is one that always has to be in front but after the race is going the same dog doesn’t fight for the front as much as he is trying to run the game. In the woods I don’t see fighting for the front as...

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs
Dog performance advancement and improvement has a lot to do with the amount of game that he actually puts his mouth on. The more catches it is in on the better it gets and it improves quicker. A pack of a dozen dogs in one state that have an average age of say 5 yrs and they are catching 25 pieces o...

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs
Al, I never had what I thought was a mentor in hunting. I had a few dog people I went to run dogs with that were always telling me how I should be doing things like them. After hunting with them a few times, I realized they were worse off than I was. I guess I too hard headed to have a mentor in dogs.

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs
I see what you are talking about Al. I contribute false treeing with dogs that were messed with too much when they were pups. Like I said before I don’t use any type hype or early stimulation like hide drags caged coons, artificuial scents. I start a dog completely dumb of what I’m wanting him to do...
