I like lots of grit and lots of bottom...the first chance the dogs have to catch up in the open he will get shutdown...running type catch dogs that catch solid and do so a mile away will not live long in my opinion...either a hog will get them eventually or heat exhaustion will...
the problem with real gritty dogs I have noticed over the years has been that they tend to be bay breakers because they put pressure on a hog in a thick spot etc...and the hog will break and run before enough dogs get there to position themselves to catch the hog...so the hog breaks and runs to another thicket and it just keeps repeating until the hog makes a mistake or gets away...
so the best dog in my opinion is one that is bred to work cattle naturally and has that mentality to want to keep the hogs gathered/stopped yet have that natural mentality to do all it can to stop a hog that wants to break and run...this dog needs to also have the best of hunting traits as well...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
A hunting dog is born not made...
