Title: Re: Hood Dogs Queations Post by: M Bennet on December 04, 2011, 07:47:54 pm i start my pups around 12 mnth just riding the hood and i snap them to the hood im teaching them to ride. after couple wks you can un snap them and they will ride with the old dogs. as time goes by they learn from ol dogs. i like to hood hunt because i cover more ground and save the dogs energy. plus all my places to hunt you can drive and i dont want to walk my dogs cause im a bit lazy.

I had a dog that would bark in the box an if you turned her out she'd be on a trail.
Mr. Bennet does your dogs jump off the hood when they smell sent are hows that work? Thanks Title: Re: Hood Dogs Queations Post by: HDCURS on December 04, 2011, 08:47:38 pm Yes you can rig off the box a bunch of people do.

Title: Re: Hood Dogs Queations Post by: skunkhounds on December 04, 2011, 10:39:14 pm work them with older hood dogs if you have a good one .i work them on pigs in a pen a few times then it on to the hood with my good dogs for some training
Title: Re: Hood Dogs Queations Post by: wranglercurs on December 05, 2011, 07:44:54 am You can put the pup on a pen hog a few times If the dog is baying pretty good in the pen I would not keep putting him in there myself. Put the pup in the woods with an older trained dog an find a few hogs. If your pup has it in him an he's MATURE anuff He'll start working for you an get better an better all the time.
