Anybody ever took note of how dogs bought outside of east Texas have a problem hitting the thickets in the piney woods? Just asking because I bought a yellow dog out of my stock that I sold as a pup around the Stephenville area brought him back home and he and he has a hard time hitting the thickets. I have a full blood litter mate and a buddy has a full blood litter mate and they are both hell of dogs. The dog I bought back is a good dog  hunting pastures and open bottom land. I'm sure he will get better with time. Just wondering if any one else has had to put up with this.

South ar dogs don't mind pine thickets or they wouldn't be able to hunt. I actually talked to a guy this morning that always hunts river bottom hard woods and he said when he has tried to hunt his dog in the hills he makes a fool of him. Just don't hunt in pines and thickets. Said only way he can get him to hunt there is if its a real hot track. Not use to the briars I reckon.

It can take awhile for any dog to adjust.... The dogs I've hunted behind that came out of east texas hav problems getting their feet tore up and had trouble running a track due to the ground being more rocky
