I got a young 16 month old walker that has never been hunted. I got him and turned out a couple or 3 coons loose for him he lost one, caught one on the ground, and treed one. He hates coons or loves them which ever way to say that, but saturday nite he treed an armordilla and a circle tree. Tonite he treed 2 amordillas. What should I do besides hunt him if anything.

If it is treeing dillers you should take a pic of it. It will be worth a lot of money. lmao But if he has his head in a diller hole they have there butt in the air. I take that opertunitey to kick it real well and screem bad game and send them on after a coon. I run elec on my dogs any time they are out so I shock them at the same time if posible but they would get one or the other.
I do this kind of thing while they are still pups and are easy to break off anything you don't want them to hunt. I have a yard full of squirels and my neighbor has cats. So they have to learn fast that coon is the only thing they are allowed to chase.
Hunt the same place for a while. Dillers are same place same time about every night. Makes it easy to catch them red handed.

Ive seen some dogs you would have to kill to break of dillers. Most get the idea its easier to leave them alone though. I always found a dog either liked them or would ignore them on there own after awhile.

I dont know why, but the dogs Ive had that liked them were 100 times harder to break then say a dog bad about deer or possum.

There easy to run down, squeek and squeal, jump like mexican jumpin beans, and some dogs just flat out lose it everytime they see one.

I quit trying to break them, if they like them I just get rid of the dog. I never found a dog that realy realy liked dillers, that I liked well enough to break from them. For some reason the dogs I liked always gave up on them after a few.
