he is a piglet killing machine lol an i personally hate it butttt a hog is a hog lol he is doing what i want an i was also told growing up a smart dog will go for the small hog an i agree with that cause i know damn well if i had to use my teeth to catch a hog aint no way im grabbin a 300lbs boar hog by the ear lol im going to that piglet about 25lbs an doin work on him lol
That dog would also be considered a cull to some for that reason.. Id much rather bay up big momma than catch her piglet.. But like you said, a hogs a hog... It all depends on what you want, and what you are willing to feed..  |

one way to fix it ... Raise two dogs ... breed two dogs ... get 8 puppies ... raise them cull them an bam you'll have a decent pack in a year or two ...
I agree...but I start culling at birth, then at 3 months, 6 months, etc. etc. cause of the work involved and the cost...not to mention space...but it is the best way in my opinion... |

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
A hunting dog is born not made...
