On the quest to be a dog man.

Thanks for the advice! Right now I haven't had much of an option because the pig pen is in my backyard so they are around it all the time. Just got a load of lumber from lowes and first thing in the morning I'm building the dog kennels (they've been in the house for the past few months) Hopefully later tomorrow I can get the new pig pen done as well. For the pig pen I'm going to have a 16x16 pen of hog panel but one side will join a 16x16 section with wood all the way around it so that dogs can't see in. I will have a chute on the joining side that I can pull with a rope. That way I can keep the pig where the dogs cannot see it until I want to work them.

I plan to start doing a lot of mock hunts. I've just been waiting because right now I only have the one little piglet (I had two but sold one). Once I get the new pen built I'm getting a shoat from my uncle and a half hog/half pot belly boar from Donnie. It's a mature pig weighing 80lbs with 2" cutters that will be good for training purposes.
