No they aer not catchy they will catch on comand or if something breaks they will make it beg for the heard.But not just bust out there and catch something if you have a brahman cross bull in a thickit they make him come out.

That's what I'm talking about!  I can only hope I have the skills to get a dog to that level one day.

I took a job in south Texas catching wild cattle one summer with some friends of mine.  In my opinion a good cow dog is just as good as a good hog dog.  The dogs we used had to track cattle for miles that were spookier than a white tail deer in some of the roughest country I have ever seen.  Once bayed these cows would fight a dog for hours, if you didn't get their quick you could lose a dog.  It all comes down to grit and heart.  Not every cow dog will make a hog dog and not every hog dog has what it takes to work a cow.  A good dog is where you find them.
