Not trying to sound like a smart ass but he is only 8 months old. If he is running track well at that age he should come around.

Have you hunted him any by himself?? I've seen some young dogs learn that they can just mill around and let the old dogs tree and still get a taste of the coon.

Sounds to me like he needs meat in his mouth, I've straighten a few out for folks that would do that, i would hunt him by hisself an start poppin them out to him there's would usually tree for a Lil while but quit, I would stay rite with em even if I had to run. In once they treed work em a Lil then pop it out then maybe hang it in a tree an mess with em again.

i have took him by hisself but its so hot and dry down here right it dont do him any good i took him the other night and cut him by hisself and he struck a bad track and ran it but when he got it on the ridge he couldnt do anything with it and quit i dont wanna push him in this heat and it being so dry and all but i really dont wanna give him a coon if he dont tree it seems like that would be defeating the purpose of it,,that would make him depend on the other dogs to finish the track and ivin it to him would make him any better at treein in my opinion..but once i get to the tree he'll start treein up,but just stands there around the tree when i'm goin in accordin to my garmin..but i know it'll all come to him,,just gotta give it time

Hunt him alone! Hunt, hunt hunt. It's the one on one that does it.

i would hunt him by hisself and around water this time of year, a young dog will tackle to tough a track sometimes but the only way they can learn is by doing it. when he starts treeing them hard ones youll have a coon dog.

The pup is probably only treeing when he is sure the coon is there. The dry conditions along with the old dog beating him there is probably making it tough on him. Experience will probably help.

i had a buddy hold its head down with a catcher,i held down his back half down and another one put the collar on him...its a easy process but you gotta have weldin gloves on...they tend to try to bite you when you doin it lol.

I wouldn't push him real hard right now, hunt him 1 or 2 times a week, and try to give him the ones he tree's on, to get his confidence up. The saying goes you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. Be patient he will be fine!
