A lot of us have trouble getting dogs to bite from time to time. I have found that if you fish a spot with a good number of fish that have not been fished over alot, that they seem to bite better, or in higher water, or sometimes a smaller lure in the right color ( experiment a bit) seems to work. This year I did well on a bright cerise pink jig fished in heavy boiling water right near bottom. Hooked only bucks though on this, but they were brutes. Green did not work or red, just that right color of pink. hope that helps, they can be tough, thanks.
