Integrity is a word that most individuals clearly do not understand, I agree with you 100%.  I have had the great opportunity to get into this sport by some very trustworthy people.

The issue that I have had to deal with is the reputation that some Hog Doggers have. Some land owners are not very receptive to letting me run my dogs, but after some persuasion they have come around and see the professionalism I have demonstrated.  It is unfortunate that a few people have represented the sport in a negative way to only group the majority of hunters in this category. 

The site has help me tremendously with training and how to avoid getting into certain situations when dealing with landowners and self proclaim dog breeders.  I truly believe the majority of the fine folks on here have good integrity and honesty as well.
