Best dogs I ever seen was not hog dogs but coon dogs own by my pe paw and uncle seems like growing up in Ellis county we would hit spots all around them hounds they had would be on a coon lickdy split and be treed like champs. Days long past I have seen many good dogs but those where the best or at least I thought so at the time my uncle is to old and crippled up to hunt any more and old pe paw been gone for years now but sure does bring back good ole times thinking bout em Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

A dog by the name of bubba that passed away a couple years ago that a good buddy of mine owned, he wasn't the fastest, strongest, roughest or smartest BUT he had "IT". I caught more hogs behind that dog than any that I have ever owned and I cut my hog doggin teeth followin him thru the woods for quite a long while. He could do it all and do it all by himself, we used to and still do road our dogs quite often, turnin a 2-3 out at a time, if bubba was on the ground and the other dog/dogs cut into the woods and he didn't you rarely heard a bay, that dog didn't want or care to trash on anything, he was there for one thing, hogs, and he knew it. in his older years he would sit on the front rack of the 4wheeler unchained as we eased thru a property and would look back at his owner and yap 1 time when he wanted to get off, my buddy would stop and off bubba would go, 99.9% of the time if that dog got off the 4wheeler it was time to get everything ready because we were about to be on a hog. Almost all of the dogs in my yard go back to bubba one way or another and maybe one day one of these pups will raise up to look and act like he did, in my opinion he was as true a hogdog as there ever lived. Lots and lots of fond memories were made in the woods behind that dog, wish he was still around.

The best dog I've ever hunted behind was a saddle back plot Craig Loftin had , this dog was cold nosed and would seem to find hogs no matter the distance , we would follow her on mules for hours , we had thousands of acres to hunt and Annie would always get off it , Craig said bob I'm selling Annie , she's to much dog for our spots , she's gonna get us in trouble , I was heart broke but he was right , I learnt what to much dog meant , he sold her I believe to circle c , I had the privilege to let my dogs hunt behind her for a couple of winters and it helped them to progress tremendously , Annie was treated for heart worms in Texas and laid off for awhile to heal up from treatment , she was healed to later meet her end on a hunt I believe , Great great dog R.I.P.

It's hard to say the best I have ever seen. I'm going to do three if that will be ok. Not in order of best just more age. 1 was a dog named black jack when I first started hunting with the man I begin hunting with he owned black jack no one knows exactly what he was said maybe catahoula and black mouth but he was definetly a hog dog he was like a magician he could make a hog it seemed on some days when things was slow and no sign out of nowhere he would find one he was silent on track with miles and hours of bottom he was a black dog with legs and scared to death of a hog I've seen him bay 20lb pigs and if they ran at him he would roll off 50 yards and go back and bay like it was a stud but he was a excellent hog dog lived to be 15 or 16. 2. Was a dog named orange he was half black mouth half Kemmer curr he didn't have a lot of hunt mainly just around the four wheeler or on fresh sign but when he got on a track he was gonna put you on a bay whether it be pretty quick or later on in the day he had no quit to him I've probably put more miles on four wheelers after this dog than a lot of people drive to work all year he was trash broke from day 1 and completely silent on track and was like black jack he would bay a pig all day we have sent two bulldogs to him numerous times and it end up being only a little squeak when they got there. He lived to be around 8 and was owned by the same man that owned black jack. After garmins came out I took him by myself one day after a rain and ride til I found a good track and reset my tracker and him and one black jacks pups bayed one after 18 miles on the garmin but I know when he was 3 and 4 he's been on races farther than that but he would of been a hog dog in anyone's book. 3. Is a dog named jack he is out of orange and a Dixie land jag. He's a smaller dog but I've seen this dog cold trail a lot of hogs that good dogs didn't know ever been there. And it seems like he likes to bay big hogs he is owned by a friend of mine from tennesse and is just as good as a bear dog as hog dog he won't tree but will bay one on the ground and can trail with the hounds. The reason I picked all three of these dogs is because of their bottom they had no quit and jacks getting old now but is still a hog dog but when these dogs bayed you didn't have to worry about hurrying getting to them they wasn't going to leave a bay after no two hours they was there until you sent the bulldog and would be leaving out after they seen the hog was caught. It's not everyday dogs like these are born but when they are they are they sure are fun to hunt with. I can think of couple more outstanding dogs but these were the best I've ever hunted with

The best dogs I ever hunted with were walker deer dogs my dad had. We trailed gut shot deer with them at probly 3 to 4 months old and the pups found the deer. As adults u could turn them out and u were gonna be slinging lead shortly. This was back when deer numbers in the AR delta were low. If they started a race u had to kill the deer or u would be chasing dogs until u cut them off and grabbed them or the next day. I have seen those dogs stretch a buck deer out for over 19 hours before we caught them. They were fine deer dogs.
Best hog dog so far was ol bob. He was an old dog when I first met him but he didn't know it. U put him on the ground and if there is a hog to be found he would do it. If he jumped u would find pork when he stopped. That ol dog could flat move a track as well. He got on a big bore one morning about 730 I guess the old sucker bayed that hog I don't know the number of times. We covered no telling how many miles. At 330 that afternoon we picked ol bob up. We didn't catch that one but it dang sure wasn't his fault. I think bob was around 9 years old then. He is still hunting at 13 or better. He is still producing pork. That ol dog is what I would like to have at some point.
