Just wondering what everyones thoughts are on what age a dog is finished? I Know it differs with dogs but i have been seeing alot of people saying 10 month old and yr old dogs finished just wondering what others think.

Whatever age the dog shows full potential and is without question when dropped to hunt.

Dogs peak at about 5yrs old, I won't call a dog finished until they're at least 2½yrs old anything younger I may call it well started.

That my opinon as well 3 yr plus or so before they learn all the tricks of the trade and have the maturity to be called finished. Just hunting doesnt mean finished. Finished means every aspect of hunting not just finding them

Yep and I think a finished dog will continue to improve as well. I compare hunting dogs to athletes. To me a started dog elevating to a finished dog is like amateur turning pro. Once they turn pro they still improve in their abilities and talents ( or they're supposed to  )

I got some four month old finished dogs. Being finished this early with so many hunting years left They have to be $5,000 each  I am of the belief that they are finished when they are in the ground.

10-4 an to be honest i'd go buy a bunch of yella puppies for 100 bucks a pop raise them aint no way i'd ever pay cash like that for a dog ... i've spent a total of 150 bucks on dogs my whole life ... when i was a boy about 10 11 years old i went to the john deere store over here right outside of cleveland wellll this old lady had " REDBONES" for sale lol keep in mind im just a lil boy who mowed a bunch of yards to get 50 bucks ... i was gunna be a coonhuntin fool ... i brought that dog home an my buddies dad is a hardcore coonhunter he seen that dog an laughed at me an told me that wasn't no redbone an sure nuff 6 months went by an them ears got shorter lol it was like a sharpay mix or something lol ... an i spent 100 bucks on a full blooded yella dog when i was like 18 or 19 she was 5 weeks old an i said if she didn't hunt it was my fault ... an shes still here catchin hogs for me lol
