any ideas will be appriciated
First off I'd stop turning those caged coons loose for her. You got a 2 year old dog but your babying her like a 5 month old pup. Take her hunting by herself and hunt her regularly. Don't walk in there with her anymore. Stand right there with a switch and use it on her if you have to. She'll either start going hunting or she won't.
