You Need A Bath?

[Cull Buck]

Most people in the hog dogging world probably laugh at the way I handle my dogs but I guess we each have to do what works for us.  I bath my dogs in the yard with a hose after every hunt or if we are going on back to back days they will at the very least get a complete wash down and cleaned up that way.  Maybe it just all those years of my old man reminding me that the jobs not over until every thing is cleaned up and put away.

I have also found numerous open cuts (mostly on the underside of the upper thoat) during the bathing process that I didn't know were there even after field checks.

That is a very good point Cull Buck! It actually worked out pretty well yesterday as it decided to pour 3/4 way through the hunt!We ended up with a nice fat sow, I will post up a pic if anyone is interested in seeing her!

I usually bath mine when i get them as pups with some flea shampoo, after that it depends on the mud/blood situation.  All i do is unload them and hose them off.  then they just go roll in the yard and get all dirty again but atleast i can say i tried.
