That's exactly how we use my bulldog.  She is a running catch dog, as in she runs loose and immediately runs to any bay in earshot.  She has occasionally caught a few hogs on her own without a strike dog finding them first but her job in our pack is to run loose and catch hogs when they are bayed up or to shut down any runners. That's my definition of a running catch dog(rcd).
