This is a picture of the sire Ike!!! Ike is a good stike dog and to dern smart for his on good!!! My dogs are more of a loose dog I would say these dogs will all catch if I go to screaming... There sure ain't many hogs that can run on them...They will make one look at him .... My roughest dog is gator and he is only that way when you put hum with something else that is rough!! My dogs bay and hold not catch unless told to!! They do go bothways cows an hogs .. Ike has even bunched a few goats for me!! These dogs have lots of scars but just been exposed to lots of bad hogs.... All these dogs will roll out as soon as you can catch one hog they are gone again none of them hang around.....Ike is the last liveing son of Rambo!!!! My dog produce mostly silent but I have a few semi silent one that is open I was going to cull her but she is a hog finding machine and can stop just about any runner you want to put her on!!! She will die here and she is a good lead dog on cows!!!
