Do you think sometimes it’s the amount of hogs you put the dog on.. Here’s my story I might be on point with this conversation or not lol but let’s start with limpy at the age of 9 months the first hunt I took him on he was out doing his own thing my place of hunting is different from most we hunt mostly fields with brush acres that border the fields at young age he will go hunt and started finding hogs at 9 months he was going the distance when he found a track so now we are talking about his belly mate brother Ace was a late starter I started taking him to the brush around 11 months old see him and Limpy were both started on a hog at same age first hog they saw they lit up but fast forward I held Ace back cause I felt limpy was a bit more advanced than him but now after putting Ace on a few hogs at a young age he wasn’t finding till he hit maybe a 1.5 now it seems like you can’t leave Ace behind that boy will flat out do his own thing and put plenty of pork at the end of the table so if it’s genetics or trained to me I say it’s both cause if you put them on more hogs don’t you think your training him or her what to find now my rose dog was the same as Ace till something clicked in her head now that gyp can flat out find you a hog I think it’s the amount of hogs you put on a dog.. cause the casting part wasn’t there for ace and rose in the beginning now it seems like they roll out looking for a hog I think it’s just the amount of hogs you put on a dog that’s my opinion so to me think it’s both genetic and trained
