Best to dump a young dog from the box to several hogs so it knows what a hog is and what they are looking for before putting them on the hood. I also like to have the pups a little bit trash broke before I ever introduce to the hood. To many critters cross the roads to have a pup that wants to run everything in site on the hood. Plus I believe it can set a pup back drastically if he comes off the hood on trash and is corrected for the trash. Seems like he associates the correction with the hood. Once my pups have an idea of what they are hunting I will start putting them on the hood. I will not over do it though. Always like to put them in hog country. Dont want a fresh pup to ride for hours on the hood with out getting on a hog and get bored with it. I never tie my dogs on the hood. I believe this is a good way to get a yound dog opening its mouth from the hood, or barking when going to a bay. Patients is the key. Some will never ride like I prefer, but most will ride in some form. 95% of my hunting is from the hood at night and has been for the last 15 years. This is only my opinion and some probably will not agree with me, but it has worked for me and has turned some nice hood dogs this way.

i start my young dogs on the ground first ,, once they start striking on the ground then i teach them to ride an load up on comand. then after that they ride beside my old dog . when he strikes i get out an un snap the pup and send him. it dont take long to teach one , u just have to have the hogs to hunt. teach him to ride the hood then worry about the striking. come go with me or some one that does it and watch. you just dont put a dog on the hood and he strikes. most dogs get scared or jump off or lay down
