I dont know were people get short range dogs will quit a hog in short order


?? Just because a dog has a short hunting range does not mean he aint got big bottom to finish I have seen many a dogs like this . Hell we have struck bad hogs 100 yds out and ran the thing for miles before we ever got him .
I agree... I've seen some good short range dogs hunt Jimmy. It's just not my kind of dog, nor what I am looking for. I don't think that all of em will leave a hog or track at there limit, but I don't want a short range dog that does leave a hog or track at 1000+ yards though. I want whatever dog it is that is on the ground hunting to stay with anything they see until it sits or outruns them. JMO though.
