The best dogs I ever hunted with were walker deer dogs my dad had. We trailed gut shot deer with them at probly 3 to 4 months old and the pups found the deer. As adults u could turn them out and u were gonna be slinging lead shortly. This was back when deer numbers in the AR delta were low. If they started a race u had to kill the deer or u would be chasing dogs until u cut them off and grabbed them or the next day. I have seen those dogs stretch a buck deer out for over 19 hours before we caught them. They were fine deer dogs.

Best hog dog so far was ol bob. He was an old dog when I first met him but he didn't know it. U put him on the ground and if there is a hog to be found he would do it. If he jumped u would find pork when he stopped. That ol dog could flat move a track as well. He got on a big bore one morning about 730 I guess the old sucker bayed that hog I don't know the number of times. We covered no telling how many miles. At 330 that afternoon we picked ol bob up. We didn't catch that one but it dang sure wasn't his fault. I think bob was around 9 years old then. He is still hunting at 13 or better. He is still producing pork. That ol dog is what I would like to have at some point.
