I have never owned one, but from what I hear it's really hard to break, sorry for the bad news. If I ever do have to break one, I would try to catch me a coon, put in a tree the dog can climb, and correct the dog with an E collar every time the dog would try to climb. You would have to be consistent in the correction over a matter of weeks. I would limit the amount of freedom I give the dog, until it can be proven trustworthy to behave properly. Bol

Duds climbs terrible. He fell 25 ft at a hunt last summer. I have just came to the conclusion that it will kill him someday, and there is nothing I can do about it.

What is wierd is that he won't climb by himself, only with other dogs at the tree with him. He is the only one out of the litter that climbs.
