 The best dogs I have found are the ones owned by everyone else.

    I am still new but have learned from the mistakes I have made. If I had to do it all over again, the first dog I bought would of been an almost finshed dog that huntted the way I liked.  Us ethat dog to help with the younger dogs. The cost of said dog is high, but add up the cost of 2-4 not so great pups bought at 100-200 a pop and you come out the same. Decide if you want a kennel full of help dogs  or a kennel full of hog dogs. It wont happen over night. Get with smeone close to you that you can trust and go for it.
