Babblers, Barkers & Breaking Bad Habits — Live Q&A
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Welcome back to the Holt Outdoors Podcast! This week we did something a little different and went live on Facebook to take your questions and talk through one of the most argued-about topics in coon hunting right now: babbling and barking dogs. Host Brennan Holt breaks down what the babbling rule actually is, why so many dogs bark out of excitement, when a dog should get minused, and why — at the end of the day — you just need a dog that trees coons and doesn't make mistakes.
Along the way, Brennan answers a bunch of great listener questions, gives updates on Nova and Shy, shares tips for starting a young dog and breaking bad barking habits, and talks about going to competition hunts, judging, and the value of good mentors. A fun, honest, real-talk episode for the working man who just wants quality dogs.
🐕 Dogs mentioned: Nova (Moss Hill Picking Up Sticks × Rackem Up Xena), Shy (Redneck Backwoods Shack × Insane Hannah)
