[ernieg]

Anyone have a way to teach a hound to bark treed? She will strike run open locate and tree but wont bark on the tree unless shes looking at the cat.
She will locate one she cant see and stay on the tree for hours silent .One time 24 hours but wont bark treed .
Any non smart assed suggestion is welcome.
Shes a good hound other than that .Short of running her with a garmin im stumped Thanks

I'm not sure the whole situation as far as runnin her with other hounds and such but I had a male who wouldn't bark treed. Old timer told me to leave a trail using a drag and once he treed, start slappin up high on the tree. I didn't believe him but I tried it anyways. He got to the tree and would jump up and lean against the tree but no barkin. I slapped the tree up as high as i could and he started barking. Did this for about a week and then turned him out. He blew the top out of the tree. Idk wat it was but for some reason it got him to barkin. It's worth a try and ya got nothin to lose. Hope this helps.

I did the same thing as Cowboy...hit the tree with a stick and run a drag on a bright rag or something that they can see. Once he knew it was in the tree and I kept hitting it to get him excited he opened up a little. Having another dog on the tree baying helps a lot too, especially if you praise him when he barks and the non-barker sees that.

Tie her back and shoot the cat. Tie a rope on the cat and throw it over a limb. Tease her with the cat where see can see it. Do not let her have it until she barks them drop the cat to her. Dewey
