She may feel like she is getting out runned. Try running her with hounds her speed. Maybe some good soloing will help to. Best of luck......

run her alone and when you do pack her up do it with dogs she can beat speed wise.She is being pushed by the other dogs.

Sounds like she is just a slower dog..She caught up after 2 minutes makes me think the faster dogs lost..over ran ..she probably came through and kept going..at least thats what happens many times.right..

TRy the pup trainer .curious to see if anything changes.I solo my young dogs alot .after they circle a rabbit alone.But everybody due to time cant always solo their dogs whhen you have a few that need the work .But the biggest thing that I think will help a young dog is to run it with a dog it can beat until they really start cranking it up and then only apply as much pressure as they can handle.
