Waylon, If I could have my way they would all be spotted like most of them over your way and in your avatar pic..
Mike, you are taking a huge chance turning a dog loose in the daytime around here during turkey season. A dog will get shot quick. One place we hunt we can't even step foot on until 3 weeks after turkey season goes out and if you got a dog that even looks at a turkey you won't be coming back..
I haven't seen a spotted hog in 6 months I'm starting to think they are going extinct. But I'm like you I sure do like those listed hamp hogs. Those are spotted pups in my avatar pic not spotted pigs lol.......but that was 19 years ago.
Skunks and fire ants will take care of those turkeys for you if they become too much of a problem.
