To me a ruff dog is basically a Rcd all mine are ruff.They can find and hold most hogs by themselves and 2 can hold anything.If they bay then I know it's a monster.A dog that fights a hog ain't worth a damn to me if they can't hold a hog effectively than they are just going to make the hog run by fighting it.They need to hang a ear and stay hung or bay just hardly ever get the baying part around here.
do you like it that they back up and bay on a monster, so they dont get killed? or would you rather they catch him?
