Ever hear anyone say they've caught 500 plus hogs with a dog?

I'm like everyone else life gets in the way these days.

But if your a single bloke hunting regularly then 500 is certainly possible. More often than not either something happens or the dog gets plain "wore out" as you guys say. I know of one no BS old dog that was worked on his own 3-4 nights a week (a running catch dog, my mate was a professional kangaroo shooter) for 4-5 years and then less regularly after that. I wouldn't like to guess how many pigs old Boss caught over the years. Certainly many hundred. I remember he caught 22 boars in two night running at wheat harvest time one year, he was the only dog on the truck.

My two older dogs would've seen several hundred each, in one 5 days stretch we got over 100...but have they caught 500 each? No probably not.
