Got up this morning and a buddy came by to go make a round behind the house. Loaded Kane, red, fancy, and Dixie. The wife and lil girl jumped in as well. I had talked with a neighbor yesterday and they said they saw a couple groups of bigger shoats Thursday evening. We went to where they had been seen and dropped Kane, red, and fancy. They moved out hunting to around 300 or so and Kane and red crossed a slough. Fancy came back so I loaded her for the trip around. About a half mile into the 5 mile trip around garmin says Kane barked 20x per minute. We got problems. Kane don't bark unless he is cut and slung off. We have now caught overdrive. I kept an eye on the garmin and see Kane and red headed for a gravel road near the slough. Fly in and Kane is in the gravel bleeding bad. Snatch him up and the wife starts trying to stop bleeding. I hear red bayed solid 130. I cut loose fancy, Dixie, and roxy my cd. We are running right behind them. Fancy gets there first and I hear her yelp. By then Dixie is there and she is yelping. Roxy goes in and gets hit by then I'm 10 yards looking eye to eye with a BIG boar. Roxy is trying to get hold of him but he keeps knocking her back. By now I have pistol in hand. I kept waiting for a clear shot knowing he's about to break. Got a clear shot but it's front edge of shoulder base of neck. I figured if nothing else I might slow him down and give roxy the chance she needs. I fire and he breaks. I hit him further back than intended. Get the CD caught and head to wheeler to find fancy has a 3" hole bit in her side and Dixie has a cut in her shoulder on her leg and flank torn badly. At this point Kane is still bleeding but not as bad as before. Red is still on the boar and we spend 45 min trying to get him caught up. The boar bayed several times but not long enough. We did see him once dragging his right front leg. When we got red caught up and got back to the wife Kane was still bleeding pretty good. Dixie was cut worse than I could staple so we cut out for the vet. Well as of now Kane is sewn up and so are fancy and Dixie. The boar had cut Kane nearly all the way thru his hip. Luckily it missed the arterie. Vet believes it missed his nerve as well. The bright side is they will all be fine in 2 weeks to 1 month for Kane. It coulda been far worse I guess. I have killed boars 270 pounds. This boar was bigger than any of those. I really want this dudes head. If the 357 slug don't get him first I will get him.

The vet told me to keep giving them 1cc penicillin per 20 pounds for next 10 to 14 days. Cole I thank you for the offer. I really think he is probly dead. He kept running to water but couldn't swim so he would turn before crossing the slough. Him running from one slough to a creak the beavers dam up and back tells me he was hurting. I wanted more dogs to put on him this morning but needing to get Kane some help was more important at the time. I kinda hated this morning when we left the house I couldn't take Lady my redbone gyp because she was in heat. She is usually with Kane and has caught some good ones with him. After the smoke cleared I was glad she wasn't in a way. It coulda been worse. As it stands I have 2 healthy dogs and a cd so im not completely out. By the time these 3 heal up they should be mad enough at a hog they won't give a flip about a dillo.

It sucks when the dogs get jacked up. But part of it sounds like you put a stop to him anyway

Not sure. I got on a great big hog back there before deer season that I think was a no ear hog that has been around. I have been seeing tracks of at least 2 different hogs throughout the area behind house that were real good tracks. This one was definately big enough to be one of them.

I appreciate the offers and if I confirm he's still kicking by track or otherwise it will be on. Thunder chicken season is coming fast so that will hinder the chase.
The latest update on Kane is they put in 1 pin and wired his leg as well. Vet expects him to fully recover to pre injury status as long as I keep him in close confinement for 8 weeks plus calcium supliment.
