I have a male Pit Bull catch dog for sale. He is about 4 years old and healthy to the best of my knowledge. Unfortunately I have hunted very little in the last two years so he has not gotten a lot of experience. I can not claim him as a "finished catch dog" since we don't hunt much anymore and can't say he is not flawless. Generally he rides the back of the 4-wheeler and goes to the bay from there or is guided in on lead. The only fault that I can give him is that he hasn't made it to the bay every time. I honestly contribute this to lack of practice and exposure in the woods. That is why I have lead him in a couple of times... but once he gets a little closer, then he takes off and gets in there. He doesn't catch exactly the same each time, but it has always been on the ear, snout or jaw.
He is about 60-70 lbs, has good teeth, and I have never witnessed any dog or human aggression with him. He tolerates a cut vest and collar well and will ride a 4-wheeler and load up when it is time. Generally he is broken off a hog with a bite stick.
I am reluctant to sell him, but I don't hunt a lot right now and can't justify my feed bills.
I feel that he will make a good catch dog with a little bit more experience and exposure. I would estimate that he has caught about 15 hogs in the woods.
I live in Sweeny, Texas (about 1 hour south of Houston). The fastest way to get a response is to send me an e-mail at
