Man this may sound far fetched, but i no a guy mr bennett that has a jack russel that will strike a hog off of the hood. Now when it comes to holding one in a bay. He is only half A$$, but he is quick and can go through anything. Sorry that did not answer your question about jagd dogs. Just thought i would share it will you.

I think their nose is better than the avg. cur. Bottom I would say depends on the dog. I never tried mine on the hood, but one of mine yipped and jumped from the front seat out the window one time. I was going around 30 mph and I thought it killed her. When I stopped I couldn't find her. About 5 minutes later she opened up in the woods and was bayed. I never had any problems with them taking a cut bad. Multiple times, the first one I had would be in the hogs mouth when I got there and she would be latched on to the hogs face. She would limp on hunting after the hog was handled.

It going to depend on what bloodlines you get, just like any other dog. Go hunt with it or it parents if its a pup. My Jagd One eyed Rollee has only been cut a few times, but it does not deter him from hunting, even after having his eye ruptured by a hog. I think that when they do get cut, what might have been a skin cut could be more serious because of their size. I feel like my Jagds are at a disadvantage in water on a hog because they are short and have to swim where a large breeed would stand and bay, and that makes it harder for them to get out of the way. They have very good noses, and mine at times have way more bottom then I want in my pack. I think the hard part for making them a hood dog is getting them trained to stay on the hood until its time, they are terriers and can be hard headed and extremely energetic. My Tex dog will wind one from the front rack of the ATV but won't stay there unless he is tied on. One Eyed Rollee does not stay put either he wants to be on the ground all the time.

Now that is funny...  Most terriers are brave and tough.

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog... A hunting dog is born not made...

I also have a pretty good jack russel for a jack russel, ans the Jgads are way more dog than the jack russel, I have nothing againtthe JRTs but the Jagd is more tenacious than most people are willing to deal with. Thery are not for everyone, I promise you that.

I have used a Jagd for awhile.I dont think I would run a pack of them.I like to use one with my dogs.They are very handy in the thickets.And thats really what made me get one.I think they are pretty consistant as far as making a useable dog.I have not seen the good nose like I hear alot.But I have not seen a good nose on most cur dogs around either.Most have been hot nosed,and the ones I've been around would take a cutting and not blink a eye.Lots of hunt and hustle.Plenty of bottom and never had any trouble keeping up with curs or hounds.My old male is 9 or 10,but has been retired along time.He would try to catch anything he found.It made a cripple out of him.I have a young gyp that bays real nice.Not near as rough a dog.I am no expert,and have only been around a handfull of Jagds.I dont think I will ever be without one.My old male is the smartest dog I've ever owned.I think they can bring alot to the table.
