Ok my 6 mounth old male blue pup has been doing things and i dont know if hes smart or dumb. Ok about a week ago my female treed a house cat while coon hunting well "rebel" my male pup starts barking at my female while shes treeing and starts kinda biting on her hes not treeing just barking at her, he is not an ill dog in any way he never growls at another dog he will even share his food with a strange dog or one of my dogs, so what in the world is he doing this for? ok another thing we was hunting a couple nights back and he runs off with the other dog, and then he opens up, and about 5 seconds later my other dogs open, well they tree the coon and hes no were to be found, but i find him at the truck. and then the same thing happens the next night, he opens and then my other ones open and its always a coon, but what im woundering is, is he barking at my female or is he opening up on track, he runs with them how ever far they go, and some of the time they go along way before they open it just seems kinda funny that he opens and then they do, but its always a coon. Im trying to catch a cage coon to see what he will do. any of yall ever had this happen?

That's called being a puppy, and it's also why alot of people consider 6 months too young to be in the woods.

He's barking at your female because he's too young to know what he's supposed to be doing.

And , he's probably striking coon , but when the other dogs rush in and start barking , it probably scares the heck out of him. Again , because he's too young.
