My 8 year old son and I are looking for dog we can hunt hogs with. I need one that can find and bay his own hog. I dont need him to be able to catch since we will be shooting but I guess if you have one that can do all 3 with out getting killed on the first big hog let me know. I would preferone that stays in pretty close. My son and I had our heart set on a finished Jagd but deal didnt work out. We have a kennel built, property to hunt, but no dog. I need a dog that gets along with kids. Maybe Im asking to much but thats what I need.
Dog doesnt need to be PET or a crazy hog hunting machine that will hunt till he dies just a capable hunting dog that would like to be owned by people that will treat him great.
Were new at this so any advice would also be appreciated. Im Located in South La. but can drive wherever for the right dog .
Thanks
Wade

Make sure whatever dog you buy has been shot over before, other wise you may loose the dog as soon as the gun goes off. Sounds like you are looking for these things: Short-Med Range FINISHED(Trash Broke) Dog Dog must have been SHOT over in the past Semi Rough to Rought(Will catch smaller hogs 150lbs) Able to hunt Alone. With that said it will save time.  Good Luck |

Hopefully you have hunted with hog dogs before. If not, you will need to go with guys to decide what type of dog you want and what a good dog is. Hopefully, I am not insulting you. I am trying to save you time and a lot of headaches and money. Also, always get a trial period on the dog.
PM me if you like to discuss. I do not have dogs for sale. Just trying to save you time and money.

Thanks scdogman I have only hunted with Beagles but have some guys I can run them with for a trial. Hopefully most guys on this site are true Sportsman and are honest about what dog can do. I guess its always a big chance with a dog. I appreciate the help and Ill PM you with some questions.
Thanks

I guess I may be a little off on the short range. I just dont need a dog that starts hunting a mile away if Im walking behind him. What kind of dog is it C.Clark? How far out does he hunt?
Thanks
Wade
