It is my opinion that a true coon dog is in different to the other dogs, some call this being independent, I think indifferent is a better description. The smarter the dog the less that dog will be affected by what other dogs do. A smart dog knows exactly what THEY want to do and that's what they do. They are leaders and not followers, no me tooing! They know where to strike a coon track, they know what tree the coon is in, they just get wiser the more you hunt them, they learn from a mistake, they take correction and don't make that mistake again, once is usually all it takes. A smart dog can make a novice trainer or handler look good. As someone that knows from experience, a smart dog can teach a handler if the handler is SMART enough to learn. Dave
