Natural ability, the dog has to have it to bring it out. We like pups you just take to the woods and start in a natural coon hunting environment. Pups that don't need to see cage coon or be messed with, with hide drags. If you have a natural Coon Dawg just put it in the woods and keep it there. They don't learn a thing by sitting on a chain or in a kennel. To make a good dog hunt it three nights a week. To make a top dog hunt in 7 nights a week in all weather conditions.
But for a 6 month old pup just take him once a week or so, don't burn it out. At a year of age hunt like I mentioned above.
I have a question for ya or anyone else that can give me good advice.
I have a red bone male he loves the woods. LoL
I played with him on a hide a few times and bring him out to the woods. I know he will run a deer track. Need to start putting his shock collar back on him in the woods. He just hit 10months old and was told to start spend 5-7nights a week with him in the woods. Now I gotta be to bed early so doing a full hunt can't happen. If I only make it out for a hour or so at night would that be good enough and nights I can go longer do so?
