My problems time I have bought dogs for cheap that for one reason or other didnt work out I have had decent luck raising dogs in the past never had one that realy showed out but I got 2 young dogs right now that have the most potential in a pup I ever had and I don't want to waist that and really think a jam up dog to put them with will make a huge difference one pup is (running walker x Parker cur) the other is (Engish hound x Catahoula) I have not owned dogs like these two before I think they will be something if I can just get them in the right direction. I think $1000-$2000 is alot of money to throw at a hog dog but not unfair considering expenses like Curcross says its what I love to do I dont fish or run the bars so why not spend a little money on my hobby $2000 is about my limit though haha thanks guys I just needed a little push to get out my wallet.
Jason...lot's of folks think that they need a good dog to train pups...that is not true by a long shot...good hunting pups that have it in them just need to be taken to the woods and they will get it down quick enough...You can give a few baying sessions in a bay pen and/or a few mock hunts and after a few of those sessions put them in some hog sign and it will be on...a well bred young dog that has it bred in them don't need and old dog to show them how to hunt...
