Your catch dog

[t-dog]

Makes sense. That’s one thing this Dogo does well is anchor because he has the leg. I understand what you mean about slowing down. I like the dogs that take their time going in.

Yes sir t-dog he is the gyp is showing a lot either she’s gonna have a pile of them or pups are big I’ll know in about 20 days see what she has been waiting raise a litter of pits so I’m a bit anxious and excited to see what happens in future

Maverick, Cajun! and Shotgun, Y'all sure have some fine looking bulldogs. Shotgun, I sure like the control you have over your bulldog.

  Our Dogo " OL'Grip", over heated and died a couple of days later, it was too hot to be hunting there were heat warnings out but I went anyway thinking I could get out before it got too hot. Nearly stroked the Plotts and my mule as well, just should have stayed home.
  Grip was a pleasure to be around, quiet at home, zero dog, livestock, or man aggression, used him solo almost explicitly and never needed question if a hog could get loose once caught, catch one in the water in cold weather just hook a rope to him and fish him and the hog out while staying dry, no leash needed, no need to worry about them with puppies running loose either not even at feeding time. Long story short we'll miss him.
  Had his uncle previously same story, he died at 8 yrs old with cancer. Had Grip's mother as well no dog, man nor livestock aggresion but did not use her as much as I had given her to my daughter to replace her bulldog I had gotten killed. Used her enough to see she would catch a big hog and stay  caught while taking a licking then bred her to Chris Scotts Ceaser male and raised Grip.
  I have a gyp pup here now out of Grip but don't like her as well as the other 3, she is pretty hyper and I don't like that, figure it'll make her a lot harder to get to handling like I prefer, time will tell.
  I have heard all the stories about the Dogo's and don't doubt them at all but I have had really good results with those mentioned.

Old man I sure hate that you lost ole Grip. He sounded like a really nice dog. Over the years I hunted with several pure Dogos and a few crosses. I can think of about three that were sure enough catch dogs. I’ve seen a few pure that were bonified bay dogs. The others caught ok but seemed to all have the habit of chewing. They would flat have an ear destroyed in no time. We all know that’s fine if you are right there to leg the hog before it’s one eared or if your eating it. If you are barring or selling them though, it makes it challenging. If it takes a while to get there you may have a bunch of dogs cut up because the ears are gone. To me that was I didn’t like about them. Now the those good ones I spoke of are much the same way you described Grip. Your pups nature sounds like my Apollo dog with the being high strung. He is too around the house or when I go out to feed, but he handles well in the woods. I couldn’t ask him to learn any faster.

I’m glad to see you back on the board. I’ve been thinking I needed to pick up the phone and check on you and then life gives me another something to do. Hope you’ve been well!

Thanks t-dog, I'm fine just have a lazy key board haha. The only one on the board I know of that hunted with Grip is Cajun, he thought he was okay. He didn't chew ears off, would often be caught deep in the head.  He would pull when caught on average sows. walk backwards toward you.

Hey Clue. Sorry to hear about Ole Grip. He was a sure enough carchdog and sure did the job when you had him out here.

Lol that’s good to hear Old Man.
