Loaded up this morning and headed out with some friends! We went to a place that we hunted last week and caught two hogs, so we decided to go back!
I dropped all the bay dogs and let them hunt! We had my dogs Katt, Squeak, Diamond, Eddie(Stag Hound) and Ivoree (half dogo half stag) to catch. My buddy brought his bay dog Hyp and Daisy to catch. Another friend brought his dog (Grifo) along to help bay.
The dogs ran up the creek 320 yards and bayed one up right out in the middle of the creek. We let Eddie and Daisy go and then sent Ivoree in after. She is just a pup didn't really know how she was going to act on her first hunt but she ran in there and caught right with the other two catch dogs. I was very impressed. Tyler and I waded in the water, drug the hog out of the creek to get the stick. I don't think I have ever been than cold in my life!
We gathered all the catch dogs and we took off down the creek! We walked all the way to the fence line and started heading back towards the truck. We made it about 300 yards away from the truck and all the dogs took off and bayed one up 400 yards away and so we took off! I got close enough to hear the hog grunt and so I sent the stag. I ran to the bay thinking Eddie was going to be on the ear and to my surprise he was ten yards away from the bay and all i could see was blood pouring from his bottom jaw. The pit finally got there and got the hog caught and I gave the hog what it needed ---a knife in the lungs and heart. I showed no mercy.
I knew Eddie was not doing good, so I took off to the truck with him. He went about 100 yards and laid down. I grabbed him up, packed him on my back and walked about 3/4 of a mile to my truck. I loaded him up and head to my friends, Paul Teagarden's house (Silvertonboardogs) We pumped him full of fluids, stitched him up and hoping for the best. He is still alive right now, so just hoping he makes it! He is a great catch dog, and has alot of hunt left in him!!

Sounds like shock would be the killer at this point. Keep him calm and warm. Good luck!
