I wouldn't use her now anyways... she's too young. Wait till she's a year old and let her adult teeth set or you'll have a toothless catch dog.

But, in the meantime, send her in behind one that's caught... in a controlled situation where the hog can't throw her around and damage her teeth. Then start in the woods at a year old, behind a proven catch dog until she has a bunch of hogs under her belt... and you feel comfortable with her abilities.
