Can he really learn to track, too, /an/? Six year old pit. Some Muslims just gave him to us when he was two and they moved.
I was thinking of buying a mixbred pup or even a piglet to train for truffle hunting instead. If I could get him trained or close in a year/less I don't see why I should have to get another animal.

You can most def train him in a year, but that's assuming you have a lot of time in the day to train. Also, he will need to be able to have a strong sniffer for truffles if that's what you're aiming for

He has a decent sniffer. I've never worried about him not finding a treat because he can't see where I threw it.
Apparently female pigs are better truffle hunters than dogs or rakers, but they're just not used anymore.

I think the pigs kept taking the truffles for themselves

That's what everyone who's never kept pigs said. I've never heard someone who hunts truffles with a sow say that. It's been illegal in Italy a while, so I wonder how true that is.
