Thanks guys. It was bound to happen. I have been hunting hard with Joey for several months now and we were due a nasty boar. We have taken about 15 hogs just on the hunts that I have been on in the last month or so. I have been real impressed with how my bulldog has handled so far in the woods. He has taken part in pretty much every catch that we have made, but had never rolled solo until about two weeks ago on a nasty little boar (about 150lbs). Always wondered how we would react to an all out whoppin. Several people have asked me why I tried so hard to get my bulldog off of the boar in the thicket. The truth is that I love that dog and when I crawled down the game trail and into the war zone it looked like he was dead. Caught on the ear and getting crushed by this monster hog. Tree to Tree, into the bank of the ditch, back into the tree. I always try to be the first one their and I could never figure out how to leg the hog. I couldnt get to his legs without crawling directly down the side of this boar hog! Tomorrow I am stopping at the sight of the bay and going to get pictures of where this hog decided to bay up. My only releif was when the hog high tailed it out of this thicket and into the corn field.  I knew then that we stood a chance at landing big nasty.
As far as the jumping on the hogs back, I really dont know. I remember coming out of the corn field and seeing how big the hog was (the largest one i have ever been a part of) and that was it. Guess the knife was in my hand and I just hopped on his back. Lookin back it seems like a pretty bad idea, but I guess its what happens to me when my brain shuts off; and im sure that ill do it agian, as it actually worked pretty good. Id like to thankJoey for the most excitement that I have ever had on a hog hunt, and Squirt for being the little terrier that did what he was bred to do. he found the hog and helped me get my bulldog out of for sure death situation. Thanks little man!
