I aint Chainrated but I will give you an answer to what I think.
Yes i believe a dog can be a hogdog before it is 2 years old. But like I said befroe a dog is not finished until it is dead. A dog is always learning in my eyes.
I have had one dog that was a hogdog before 1 year and he was the best I have ever raised or owned...and I have raised some I would put against any hog dog by time they were 18 months old...a hunting dog is born...
I also believe a hog dog can be a finished dog when he reaches a certain peak...just like any great athlete whether it be track, football, basketball or whichever...even the great loose their edge over time...and so it is the same with great hunting dogs...
feeding tracks will make any hunting dog a better hunting dog...but a dog that is born to hunt you just show him what you want...
if a pup don't show me certain traits he won't last long around my place...
So you are saying that an old dog won't or can't learn after they reach a certain age?
To me that is like saying that I can't learn something new since I have gotten older. That athlete may not can compete with young ones anymore but they can still compete and do it a smarter way.
Hillbilly...I never said an older dog doesn't get better...I was thinking when taking everything into consideration just as with anything else...the body tends to slow down at some point...
Heck I am on a turnaround planning/coordinating team and half of us are retirees...they hired us because of our past histories...The younger guys were hand picked from out in the field contractors that had proven their worth day in and day out....no different as with anything else...
