Hopefully I don't seem arrogant or like I'm boasting but the oj dog is the first good dog I've owned and we been through a lot of dogs. All of the dogs I got with no experience in hogs. A lot of people told us we'd never have good dogs without hunting with experienced dogs. After a couple years we catch hogs religiously. I'm very proud. I can't say we did it fully on our own. I do feel like starting from nothing and watching the dream come Alive I have learned more than I ever could just buying finished dogs. I remember the first hog we caught and trying to hold years back with the thought of so many telling us it'd never happen.
starting from scratch can be easy when starting out with a good line of dogs...finding the right dogs can be the tricky problem...
we can be sitting on start for many many years if we don't have the right dogs...
