Is this what he's been doing ever since he started treeing, or is it something he started doing lately?

If the former, just tie him at every tree, and knock a few out to him to start. If the latter your gonna have to let him know we don't play that game......just enough to get the point across to start and consistently amp it up if needed to a full out hat whuppin or ear twist all the way back to the tree. Obviously you could also incorporate an E-collar if the dog knows what it should and should not be doing.

I don't let a dog that previously was doing what I want, decide to make a game out of being sloppy. They can choose to go backwards, but there is consequences and if they have any brains they choose the easy way over the hard way.
