Maybe when they start schooling try and get an old tight single trap try walking em through it few times a day when they get used to that then leave em in it maybe twice a day for five mins at a time make sure the trap is facing where they can see a little bit of activity I face it down the lane way where I walk em I had problems with dogs early last year and it seemed to work even though they can still turn from time to time but that's dogs nothing straight forward all the time

Ever tried backing him in from the front, Frank ? That works sometimes.

Agree with Mary! I place a Box in the doorway to their kennel Frank must walk through the box/trap to get in or out of the kennel. place food bowl in box. after a few days fine. Or Trial him with front open. Hold by collar, until he gains confidence.
