to much time and money is involved to just walk away. screw pride, shoot the dang thing. I think it would honestly be better to have 1 maybe 2 bay dogs at most to find the a-hole and just shoot him to keep the dogs safe
I would do this

What is one hog? Why take a chance on loosing a dog over one hog. If he runs the same route put a bullet in him. And catch more hogs with same dogs! We have a similar deal goen on. We've had him caught once and couldn't get to him fast enough. We didn't loose any dogs but my dog took the beating. And the boar doesn't have any ears now. We strike him in the same spot and he's taken my swag dog on a chase twice since the first time. Last time he knocked my buddys dog smooth out. Our game plan is turn one dog loose let him strike the hog when it breaks were gonna shoot him when he cross's the clear cut. I don't have to catch every hog with a dog. And I sure wouldn't keep sending my dogs in on a known dog killer. I would punch his time card for him and keep on hunting. There is always gonna be more hogs with out haven a head ache over one. And to me it doesn't make munch sense to turn one back loose... to each his own. My dogs life isn't worth my pride of catch a dog killer and loosing one of them.

What are y'all's thoughts on going after a dog killer?
Specifically a Boar that's killed multiple (5 or more) dogs from multiple hunts. Dogs that are anywhere from catchy to just strong bay dogs. This Boar nearly cleaned a guys pack out over the past year and killed a couple more belonging to another guy.
I'd hunt him every day I could go. One or two loose bay dogs and 2 or 3 big catchdogs...

once you know how he runs one can make a plan...
used to be a big sow would run straight to where 3 pastures cornered up to each other and the cattle would all gather there from the 3 different properties...this big old sow would make a run thru all those cows and some of the young dogs would go to baying cows and then she would make a run through a neighborhood about 3/4 of a mile away...We figured it was a big boar until we caught it and it turned out to be a big sow about 3 hundred pounds worth...and after 5 or 6 tries...her escape route was always the same...

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...

If a hog comes to my house and breaks in, then I'll shoot him!!!! If I go looking for him then he has a right to defend himself and I expect he will to the best of his ability.

Got on one, one afternoon thay was a sure nuff smart ol boar hog. This hog let us walk right by him while the two dogs (my young curxbulldog and a buddies seasoned cur) winded a smaller boar bout 125. The small one lit out under a fence and across a pasture. We were able to call the dogs back before we got in trouble. We continued on to a cypress head and probably didn't go 75 yrds when I noticed my dog wasn't with us. I figured he went back to the truck so I told my buddy to walk the other dog in the head and I'd go get Odis. Bout that time we heard Odis bark once behind us. We haul butt to him and watch him hit this man of a boar hog just as pretty as can be, locked right on the ear. Well, that ol hog must have been through this before. He rolled like an ol gator and through Odis off. They both stood up and looked at each other for a sec and the hog broke to the fence line with both dogs on his heels. Hog gets to a patch of palmettos right on the fence to stand his ground. Sounds like they have him caught and we head in. We're almost there and both dogs come flying out dang near head high. After that the dogs kept trying that ol hog, circling best they could, but there was only one way in. Everytime that ol hog met them head on and it sounded like two old bulls smacking heads. We finally called it off and luckily only got one dog cut and it wasn't bad. We still talk bout that night. Them ol hogs don't get that big by being dumb, and they get purdy dog smart if run a lot
