This is Skip, he was a son of Sadie (on page 1) and the first strike dog we ever had Sam. Skip didn't need any help to stop a bad hog or keep him bayed up. It took him a few years and alot of penicillan injections to figure out he needed to wait on the bulldog before catching. He was a little older than Gator and they were always competing for lead dog. They very seldom hunted together, which was a plus because between the 2, they covered some ground. It was always a toss up who would bay first. Skip also found hogs for us until he was over 10 yrs old.
