Sounds to me like he did his job, he bayed a hog. Would'nt we all love to be able to train our dogs to bay only big boars. It sounds like he was going to the far side of them to cut them off or to keep the hogs in between himself and his owner. If so then I would think that is the livestock and working dog instinct coming out in him. A good cow dog will do the same thing.

I think he was just going to what he saw as the front of the herd and trying to turn it so that he could bunch them for you.

I finally learned a really good lesson some years ago.....never try to tell my dogs how, when or where to hunt hogs....they know more about it than I ever will. I got this shown to me in a big way one morning and I felt like a fool when they did just what I didn't think they should and wound up finding and baying a 350 lb. boar hog layed up in some soybeans.

It's easy to judge the character of a man,....by how he treats those that can do nothing for him.
