They got the stopping power and will drag one down then back off bay him tight as it takes to keep him there till I can get there. It took doing a couple different breedings to get just what I wanted I had to fine tune it some but it has all worked out for me . I love it now I don't have to break my neck trying to get to them and feel confident the hog will be there when I get there.
The dogs I bred before caught and released a big boar until I got there and then I had the choice of whether I wanted the dogs to catch for me or to just shoot it. After a few years I learned that shooting was always better when I had 3 or more dogs on a bad boar on account of keeping injury to the dogs at a minimum.
My plan is to run vests on all my dogs...but like I said, time will tell if it is really what I want. Like always, it takes me a long time to finally make a decision of this type or even when making a breeding with 2 dogs...
It drives my wife crazy when I do this but the right breeding/dogs require a lot of thought before making a decision of this magnitude...
. Besides, it is the fun part of every day living....
