I have a year old English female that I’m having some issues with. 1st is that she is dead silent in the woods. I mean she hasn’t barked 1 time in the woods if I was to cut her loose on a caged coon, drag, or hot track no matter how far the “track” is she will run it to a tree and will Mosey around the tree for a few minute and then she will come back to me or she will run the track numerous times always finishing at the same spot but never ending treed. 2nd isue is she doesn’t like to leave me 75% of the time and I’ve spent many a nights sitting on a log and just waiting on her to leave on her own but she will just keep coming back and checking on me after running out 25-30 yards. Any suggestions?

Also she hasn’t had her first cycle and still has a lot of puppy in her if you know what I mean. Should I give her more time or find something else. Also I don’t have anyone around that i know would be willing to cut loose with a pup trainer or I would.

I’ve been in this situation many times and was hopeful the light would come on. It didn’t work out for me. I would be moving on to my next project.

Alot of questions here that need answers.

Most people don't give a dog a fair chance and give up way to soon.
She is young, sounds to me she doesn't know much and definitely not about treeing.
On a turned loose coon most dogs won't open on track.
Give her some time, don't rush her....she will let you know when she is ready.
Early morning walks in the woods and her just getting use to everything will help her alot.

Idk imma keep messing with her but it may not work out.

Most of the time pups will not leave you. best if no one or nothing is there to hang around if you get what I'm saying. that's why you hear most guys leaving they're pups loose on farms to run whatever they want then once they start running, they put them up and concentrate on coon. if you don't have access to a place like that a breaking pen would be my next bet. Get them running something deer, rabbit something. The pup needs to learn to use its nose. Also pups need hot tracks if there is nothing around in the woods your taking her, she probably isn't going to get in there and take off and find anything. put her on game. HOT TRACKS!!! Plenty of game and hot tracks.
