I train less than the old man or Cajun…

I feed the pups in one bowl and make sure they keep a good attitude while eating together…if I feed a raw hog head I supervise them the whole time to correct attitudes and take the head away when not supervising…
I pack them kind of tight in the dog box so they can get accustomed to togetherness…

I sit on top of the picnic table and make a point to have a pup or two up there with me so they can become  accustomed to platforms…

What the old man said…but a little different situation, when leading a dog for a walk, especially when leading them to load up and go hunting they will make somersaults in their excitement to go hunting…I use chain type leashes and I will pop them between the shoulders with the leash and I stop our forward progress…move forward when the dog calms and heels…repeat as needed and dogs will learn quickly…training can be easy when we know what to do…it took me a couple years to figure that little trick out…

The bottom line for me is to train to meet a minimum requirement I am comfortable with…

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
A hunting dog is born not made...
