I want the dogs to stand back about 5-10 ft away and bark every breath. When the hog breaks i want ONE dog to go for the nuts.

Thats what I like, plus I like to see that some teeth have been applied at some point showing me that the dogs stopped it from running and not the pig stopped on its own but was forced.

Not trying to crash any ones style but I see no need in my dogs hammering down every Breath if the hog is settled down cause for instance the situation me and T-Bob where in Saturday morning with two dogs bayed in an extremely hard to reach area for several hours if these dogs would have been hammering the whole time there is no doubt in my mind they would have either quit the hog or died from heat stress the hog will settle down as he gets tired to conserve energy until its necessary I want my dogs to settle with the hog as well not give him as much pressure as if he were charging and trying to break on a sounder of hogs I want the hogs to be grouped close together with a little pressure until settled as well I don't want one hog to break and be singled out I've seen several times from two specific dogs on my yard when a hog breaks out of a sounder one dog stays with the sounder as the other dog will work the hog that broke back in to the group and then making a couple of loops around to tighten the sounder back up then switching positions with the other dog and letting her make a couple loops then switching positions again
