How far do they run before the dogs stop them?

I think you are asking how far the hogs run.

Last week the hog never ran.  Dogs opened a couple hundred yds from his bed and shut him down at his bed (or 38 yds from where the garmin initially showed treed).

Yesterday, little 80 lb hog ran circles in a thicket for 45 minutes before the dogs caught him.

After the 80 lb hog, a bigger hog (I only saw his track) ran for 4 hours before he lost dogs.

Every one of my hunts is a little different.  Some hogs run more than others and sometimes dogs shut the hog down and sometimes dogs flat out get beat by a runner.  Hogs, weather, terrain and other varriables impact the hunt.
