There must be a helluva lot of mishandling going on!   Hey now, it's all good Mike, I think the tide is turning towards plotts and plott crosses again, so hopefully there will be enough time to get all the dud curs covered up like area 51. Lol |

The way I look at it I would rather spend alot of money on some really good dogs and have some thing worth breeding and be able to have my own pups

Lot good replys thanks I dont look at the dogs for sale on here most are in Texas im in Arkansas I asked this mainly because im at a cross road I dont feel like I can advance forward without buying a good dog to put with my young dogs and I just wanted to get an idea of a fair price. I have some nice young dogs from good hog dog stock with alot of hunt they all got a touch of hound in them and will run anything a good solid dog will tell on them when they are trashing. I am gone 28 days home 28 days about the most I can hunt them is 4-5 times every other month its hard to get them going like that. Just looking for some opinions and advice. I either need to sell the dogs I got and just tag along with buddys or buy one jam up dog I recon.

jam up dogs need to get hunted too...after a while a jam up dog will probably trash if there aren't many hogs around...if you don't hunt much it will be best to dump the dogs in fresh hog sign...this will keep the trashin down... |

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...

If I were in my late 20's or early 30's I would prefer to buy an up and comer...A 10 month old pup that is a hard hunting, trashy as heck pup...the right size and color and the right parents/bloodline...I would pay 1000 to 1500 for such a pup...then that pup would be bred once if a good one, or, it would be the main dog that a breeding program would be built around...if he turns out like I think he would...
and if I wasn't interested in a breeding program I still want that above average trashy pup because the chances of getting the pup at a bargain price is good...and this pup probably couldn't be bought once it is a 2 year old dog...

I like how you bring up trashy pups. My opinion is people will give up and sell a trashy dog too soon but also in my opinion you can teach them what to trash on lol cause they want something bad and just need to be shown what!

I agree the the two pups I got have all the tools just need direction and a solid dog would help me out alot there arent many hogs where I hunt alot of time I dont find fresh sign and turn them out in areas I have been lucky at before if there is a hog there they usually will find it but if it aint they will run deer and run them a long way way over a mile and one is a year old the others 9 months old they got the want to but I want to be able to cast them if nothings there they come back and I move on. My older gyp never done that before but she trashed with them the last 2 time I hunted them thought they were on a running hog but saw deer cross the road they were about 10 minutes behind them and were sure after them I caught them and gave a scolding for it I prolly a lesson they have forgotton by now. Thanks for the replys |

Somebody said earlier that even a good dog would trash if they go without finding a pig for awhile and I tend to agree I don't get too down if a dog trashes sometimes maybe it's my fault for not setting them up for success. Only time I get spun is if they mess with livestock

Man I love hog hunting and have spent $500 on a pup but I couldn't ever see personally spending over 2 k on any hog dog. Being the chance of him/her not being here tomorrow. Now flip side of that coin, I ve seen blood trailing dogs go for 5k +, hell I ve been offered that for mine. But those dogs typically have a longer life than a hogdog. AND make money. But that's just been my experience. Best dog I have right now I spent $200 for so too each their own.. I was lucky to have a buddy, I wouldn't buy a dog or take a dog from just anyone

I see your point but in my eyes if I can I have good dogs and have the chance to buy on better than what I have to improve my dogs further down the line I will do it I would not spend more than I could afford but I enjoy hog hunting more than most. I like to have the very best dogs I can find. When I'm not hunting I am thinking about it is more than a addiction for me it is what I enjoy most of life so I will do what it takes to get the best |
