I guess i would have to see one of those type of dogs that can just run in and catch or sit the hog down. I dont think it can be done. The hogs around here will be at full run as soon as they hear the dogs coming. Running a hog down and stoppin it just flat out aint gonna happen unless the hog is crippled. This is in the woods i hunt.... So dont get wadded up!!
Peach u have never seen a dog catch up with a running hog and shut it down? I know these hogs run like crazy around where i hunt and we dont catch all the the hogs we start but we do SHUT DOWN alot of hogs.
