I dont know about in your area,, but here, it sure does help to have a vet that likes to hunt, and knows about hog hunting. these what I call tourest (dont know about the spelling) vets will charge you double if they think your animals are used for hunting...
Thats probably true. We are lucky to have some good ol' country locals as vets. Dr Wagers that owns Crosby vet has always had cow and hog dogs.
