Walk to 3 trees 1200 yards apart, and slick, it’s easier to walk back to the truck without leading one back to the truck.

Chewy..realize some people have higher standards. A coon hound has 1 job...tree coons.
A slick once in a while..no problem. But if thats all the hounds doing then, there is a issue there.. Whipping and sending on is probaly your best option.
But then again....ask yourself." why is my dog treeing slicks and not coons"

Posted by Rancher77 on 10-28-2017 11:55 AM:

I wish more people would cull..
Instead they mask over problems..problems that should be bred out.
Most of todays problems..where bred out at one time...here the come back.

Posted by chewy97 on 10-28-2017 12:25 PM:

He does tree a coon every now and again and when he does he looks like a world champion dog it takes a dozer to get him off the tree. He hasn't had many coon given to him he is 2 yrs old less than 10 coon in his hunting career. But it takes 20 slick trees to tree one coon, I'd rather him not hunt if he can't find a coon then to just pick a tree and tree on it.

I understand its frustrating. I had one that wouldnt tree...gave him 4 months to figure it out..then gave up.
Most dogs dont need to eat on very many coon. My thought is ..your dog isnt checking..just sitting down treed.
Whip him on until he trees a coon..knock it out to him.
Stay at it till he fixes or you get tired of it

chewy97

send him on is good advice. you stay at the tree and make him leave. check the tree fast (no squalling petting or encouragement) the problem could be many things. good luck. your gonna need it

Posted by chewy97 on 10-28-2017 10:16 PM:

Thanks to all everyone who gave advice on correcting my situation. This week we will be going to school I'll post any progress.

check thyroid

Have vet check your dog for thyroid. Could be it.
also hunt him alone. Try to set him up some easy coons. Tree one put him up
Just one tree one coon. Do this once a week. For month. Then try little longer hunts. He need confidence. Plus it takes a day or two for stuff to sink in some young dogs. But do this easy coon one and go home thing and don't go every night give dog a night or two in between. It has helped me on some young hounds in past that started missing some. Time of year type hunting grounds. Pressure on your coons. Acorn vs corn field alot come into play. Wish you the best.

Morons, I’m not the one who got on here asking the question. And as far as how I treat my hounds, you have no clue. They have it better than some people I know. Did you ever think he might be treeing squirrels? Maybe he is only missing by a tree or two. Maybe he is running fox, they will tap a tree and keep on going. Hunting in acorns they will climb come down and move on this time of year. Maybe he’s backtracking and when the scent get to weak he just trees.
Moron, huh. Thanks.

i hope you the best but that is a habit that you probly will never get fixed

Posted by dchartt on 10-30-2017 02:32 AM:

come up with a plan and stick to it
if he doesnt improve in the next two months for instance, cull him
more then likely you will ruin a dog before you "fix" him
some dogs you wont ruin and you wont fix
one coon to 20 trees I myself would cull him first thing in the morning
but if you havent tried anything hes your dog not anyone elses
whatever you do dont sell him

I had a dog just like that, every once in a great while he would have a coon, I switched, hunted with a solid dog, many different things..I never got him to improve, finally one night I told myself this is his last night in the woods and that sorry SOB treed a coon, Next two nights I hunted him all slicks

Lifes to short to be hunting junk dogs

I had a really nice young dog that went from being accurate to treeing a lot of slick trees. It was winter time so at first I tried shinning walking in. I never said a word to her if it was slick I just ran her off. She got so that if it was slick she would leave when she seen me coming but stay if she had a coon. That told me she knew the difference and probably wasn't treeing just to be treeing. I shot a squirrel and laid a drag with it. As soon as she hit the track I hit her with the collar. I did that 3 times at different times and places. It cut her treeing by 75% and she was back to the dog I thought I had.

Your dog has gotten confused somewhere along the way. It either thinks that treeing is what you want it to do, its trashing on something that climbs trees, its trashing and is treeing to cover its self or its treeing because it cant run a track. You will have to find out why its treeing so much before you can figure out how to fix it. Good luck.
