We can't keep our dogs from smelling all this trash that roams the woods,.....what I want is for my dogs to not want to pursue/catch any of these critters. I agree 100% that the dog/pup needs to be familiar with hogs and be baying or running them well before we try to break if off of any kind of trash.
Far better to use too little 'shock' than too much. You can always add more, but you can never take back too much.
If you can see some deer in a pasture or run across the road in front of you.....you have a super opportunity to educate your dogs,.....get 'em out and turn the ones with shock collars onto the track.....if they start to follow it.....buzz 'em.....if they don't put 'em back in the box and count your blessings. Good luck.
I'm gonna give that a shot. I got a big club and usually can catch a deer cross pretty easy, thanks
