I run a pair of help dogs/ me to dogs. I guess you could call them running cds when they get there 8 out of 10 times its a caught hog. They ranges out around 150 yards stay some what busy have found hogs, but they live to hear a bay start. Sure they may be culls dnt have a purpose on your yard but they suit me fine. And for me that's all I ask out of them I'm fine feeding them and they have a spot on my yard. Will I bread for this same style of dog dang straight I will but it will be for what they are solid helping muscle! I like to catch multiple hogs out of a sounder and tthis kinda dog does the trick for me. With out another mile race to get on another pig. We can catch 3 0r 4 pigs 30 and 40 yards a part at most.
Excelent example big chris. Them "help" dogs AINT help dogs, they suite u n ur hunting style just fine n the end result is pork on the ground. In that aspect, they r not "helpdogs/culls"! they r suitable for u.
A "help" dog aint neccesarily a cull, it could b a valuable asset to some.
