Just curious if anyone else out there does this.
I have always trained my baydogs to be gunshy due to having to deal with the increasing amount of nuts out there attempting to shoot hunting dogs.
I have a few friends that hunt by themself and have to shoot the hog at the bay, but if I have to shoot a hog over my dogs they are done for the night and are heading to the truck. I personally like it simply for the fact if some nut shoots one of my dogs at a bay chances are he won't get em all cause they are gonna be buggin out.

I don't train them one way or the other but sounds good and I do see your points, all my dog are about 50/50 half of them will stay bayed and not pay any attention the others will tuck tail and hall azz to the truck or whichever way thay can break and run lol

use to have some that when they heard the shot they were catching. Use to like to walk up to the bay and shoot into the ground and watch them catch big sows.

Got one that came to me bb gun shy  I have thought about but have not done it. Done it the other way for bird dogs. But shooting my dogs ain't a real good idea. |

YBM, you are making a good point. My friend had a mtn cur shot a little over a year ago and the judge was neutral even with good evidence. The judge and the shooter were from the same area so that might have something to do with her ruling.
If the other dogs had stayed they would of been shot also. They were running a track and that is what probably saved them on account these dogs are not gun shy.
I shoot a cap gun over the small pups when feeding them once in a while but I can see your point.

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...

I do agree that's a good idea. I've never tried to train a dog either way but my dogs always get used to guns because I'm always shooting something. My 2 oldest dogs come running anytime they hear a gun because they know an animal is usually always involved. I think the best defense is to know the people around you and don't hunt close to houses or cow pastures but I know that's not always possible.
