as we all know , hog doggin is a very dangerous sport ! from the time you drop the dogs till the time they are back to the kennel anything can and will happen. i feel that the desision made by the hunter ,durring he hunt can mean life or death for our dogs ! i always carry some back up for the dogs . when i come up on the bay i first assess the situation : big boar with big cutters (BANG) . others get a dog attached to there ear! i guess what im trying to say is use your better judgement , whatever you decide !!!!!!!!JMO
