What is a hard tree dog to you? I read all this 100-120 barks a minute every time it is mentioned.
To me how many barks a minute doesn't have anything to do with a hard tree dog as long as it gives 12 barks a minute and stays on the tree threw hell and high water. The rest of the barks are just heating up the dog in the summer time and a waste of energy the rest.

A real TREEDOG to me is the one that you know will be there no matter how long it takes, i dont care if they only bark 30 a minute as long as i know they are there to stay no matter what. I wonder what one of these 120 barks a minute dogs sounds like after about 4 hours.
I was in a hunt last week and my bluetick female got treed deep and had to stay 40 minutes before we got to her tree, and she was down to a bark about every 10 seconds and had some bark off the tree, but she stuck and that coon won the cast for her TREEDOG.

Okie...A hard tree dog does exactly what the term implies.."IT TREES HARD".

A dog that stays trred "come hell or high water", is a 'STAY PUT TREE DOG".

I have had some "hard tree dogs" that wouldn't "stay put", and I have had some "Stay put's" that wouldn't "tree hard".

I like a little of both.
