spend more time finding the right line of dogs to start with than starting with a half ass line of dogs because it will take years to clean it up enough to produce consistently a high percentage of good hunting dogs...
starting out with the right dogs and you can tweak and improve on an already good line of dogs...
That right there is probably just as hard as breeding the right dogs!!!
How can you breed sure enough hog dogs when you cant get your hands on any to begin with!!
All the old dog farts with a good line wont let go of any dogs except to close friends, family, kiss a$$es, blah blah blah..
Wonder why all the "average" hog dogs are getting bred and producing "more culls in the world" ? Cause thats all some can get!!
And before someone says " find a dogman close to you and drag their hogs, learn all you can, and they might give you a pup" , what if there are NONE close?? Sure theres plenty of guys with dogs around, but no well established, sure enough HOG DOGS..
If it wasnt for ETHD, There might be a handful of guys that i know that even hunt hogs... ( and their dogs suck!
)
There, i feel better!!
