I have a 4 yr old plott dog that I used to run on bear. He will run and bark on coon and he will go right up to the tree its in, but wont tree. Hell jump up on it but wont bark treed. But yet he barks on track. Any suggestions?

would he tree on bear? if so he just might not have the drive to tree coon cuz he likes bear more. but i'd just get him amped up at the tree for awhile to get him treein then knock it out to em. then after doin that fer awhile he should realizing if he trees he gets the coon. also tyin em back from the tree like 10 er 15 ft and smackin the tree and gettin em to bark like that has worked good fer me. good luck.

sometimes dogs like one animal more than the other and they care more. But I would have to agree with Perky's second idea. Tie him up away from the tree and get him siked up from there and yes he will realize that it is good to tree more that one animal

have a cameron female bluetick does the same thing talked to a guy out west that has littermate to her she will tree a coon but likes a cat better trees hard on them

i had a walker female that would just go up to the tree and sit there with a coon in it and not bark and one night when she went to the tree i just started hitting the tree with a stick and rubbing her and barking like another dog would and she just got really excited and started barkingand climbing the tree and now she is a crazy amazing do trees really hard evry tree now going to breed her with my brother in laws dog witch is also an amazing dog he was treeing bear at 5 months old he just took him to a feild trial, and 5 out of 65 other dogs at just a year old!
