90% of any dogs outcome is based on how it's trained and handled and what it's taught

You really believe this? Please explain...

How do "train" that dog to roll out 1/2 mile, 1 mile, etc... looking for a hog?

How do you "train" that dog to stick with the hog mile after mile when the hog runs?

How do "train" that dog to take a track several hours old and run with it?

I'm 100% percent believer in Reuben's signature line "A hunting dog is born not made".

We train our dogs to come, load up, get out, sit, stay, roll over and play dead... not to hunt. You can't train the "hunt" into a dog. We expose them to what we want them to do, then genetics take over.
