Title: Re: Pup striking hog Post by: halfbreed on August 28, 2013, 11:52:06 am different pups different ages to start . how often does the dog get a chance to find a pig ? that makes all the difference in the world . have you taken the pup out solo to let it develop it's desire to hunt on it's own ?
