A Good Plott Dog

A good plott..I don't hunt plotts but have seen a few. I hunted mtn curs that looked like plotts...but to me a good plott is gritty enough to put teeth on a hog if it breaks and does what it can to stop it...if the hog is bayed he will back off and bay 6 or 10 feet from the hog... two plotts won't get t0o gritty if the hog is stopped... three or more plotts and they will put pressure on the hog and make him back up against a log or bank or possible make the hog break bay... five dogs and they will catch and release as they get tired and rested...but the hog won't be able to run if the terrain is open enough to let the dogs work how they want...The dogs will be cautious and smart enough to stay clear of the tusks...there are some occasions when the dogs throw caution to the wind and it is at these times when a dog of this type can get crippled or killed...but these dogs have stick and will stay as long as needed until the hog is brought to bay...
