Rigging

[Hounder900]

So maybe there's a tread on here about rigging but I was wondering about all the different ways to teach a dog how to rig. I dabbled with it a little bit a while back but then realized its kind of point less where I live. So I went back to a silent box.

Thanks fellas.

Set a caged critter next to road drive by and sick them on it when they get to barking cut them loose. If in snow pull up on track and sick them till there opening

I kinda started that way as well. Using caged critters just of the road. I might walk one acrossed the road using a snare pole or roller cage. Some times I would try putting tracking collars on so I could figure out if they were catching the same animal they were rigging. Cause let's be honest, I could drop my dogs off anywhere rigging or not and they would always catch a coon right away and never catch a cat. Haha, lost two collars trying that with cats. But I would just never let umm out of the bot till they opened. And never disciplined in the box.

There is some old timers better at this then me but I believe just repetition helps and some of these dogs are just naturals. I have a pup now that is already striking varmints but has been hauled around a bit on the box.
