my 10 month old plott pup is doing excellent with treeing his own coon....only one problem though, if he doesnt find a coon before a fox, he will run that until he jumps on a coon track
...he doesnt run any other junk though.....he is really smart and trainable....he is an ALL chop mouth dog, never double chop or bawl mouth, so I can't tell if he is on coon or fox, i can only tell because if its a fox it just runs in huge circles....I haven't hunted him in the cold whether, I've been waiting until spring, when all the kit coon are out...I have worked with Boone since he was 3 months old and found the water race coon on his own at nat'l redbone days in 2006...he started smelling a crack in the building and barking and started to dig, so we opened the door to the building and there sits a big ol' coon in the cage....the Lord blessed me with a fine natural coonhound as my first ever hound....his only fault is flat feet and fox, so if any suggestions with the fox running, I would absolutly appreciate the help!!!
