Ahhh heck man.....if these rough dogs make into something worthwhile on catchers...probably give ya one to try out. If your waiting on a cull from my hunting mutts......they all get homed out to same place.  i dont want one of your culls, i want you to hook a brotha up with a humdinger!  i am still working on ol Coal man, but that wild injun is as stingy with a yella dog as you are! (and in my book, thats exactly why yall got something worth keepin ) Need to corner Cole up on that last line bred cross he came down and did. Them lil buggers are gettin it. Gotta talk sweet to him...kinda like a women..  |

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...

Unfortuanally reuben he is now gone. I was lucky to get to hunt with one of this dogs sons and was a heck of a dog not straight catch but sure added to my pack while I had him. Only bayed one hog on me and it was probally the tallest and longest hog I have ever been on. I have 3 pups out if him and my catch bmc gyp will see they seem to be the smartest pups I have had in my yard yet

Not sure if I have ended up with a natural catch YBM gyp or not. Picked her up about a month ago, let her stay in the back yard for a week or two to learn some manners from momma's dog (1/2 Dogo, 1/2 Lacy) and get some socialization, this pup is 8 months old. I've included her in my liver drags with my 3 month old black/tan x bmc pups. She did alright the second and third time, but acted like she was bored. So today I put ole spot (shoat) in his protection cage and turned 1 pup and yeller gyp loose. no interest til I unleashed ole Sam that I bought from Doug Mason, and my 1/2 Dogo x 1/2 bmc TIG and they went to work baying up a storm. The pups came back and got in on the bay and was really getting into it. I tied Tig up (catch dog) up so he wouldn't catch and kill when i release ole spot.As soon as I did the race was on. Sam got to him first and bayed spot up at about 100 yds,the YBMC gyp stayed with spot like glue, baying tight also, then all of a sudden she caught an ear and locked down. Yal know how things can get fast in a hurry, When Sam saw that she was catching he decided to help, so he started catching on the other side. So I grabbed sam and tied him to a mesquite and went back to the scrap. Everytime I would just about get the pig tied, yeller gyp would come in for another bite. By this time I was wore out and let the pig loose hoping the gyp would just lay down with an ear and wear the shoat down, not a chance! They both took off running side by side with ear in mouth. I followed them for a couple hundred yards then lost sight, ( ima thinkin this wouldve been a good time for a tracking system!) I get back to the other dogs and get them back to the kennels and on water. Meanwhile my wife is running the roads surrounding our place, bout a 6 mile block, and I head back a foot in the general direction I last saw them, go about another mile and back. My wife calls and said she found them a mile further west than where I had just walked on the side of the road. yella gyp still had an ear in her mouth, shoat was wore slap out, and gyp acted like it was a walk in the park! Seems like this little gal has a surprise for me everytime I take her out for some basic track/find/bay training. I have to admit that this was my first rodeo on a deal like this. She showed me that shes got plenty of grit, and doesn't have any quit in her and she'll dang sure catch and lock down. Just hope when the time comes where she has to find her own pig instead of picking on ole spot, she'll be just as aggressive but will bay a little looser and bark so I can find her. and if she does catch, she learn to set back instead of running along side of the pork!

Well since this thread popped back up I guess I can give an update. Out of all the dogs we were trying ......a couple didn't make the cut and several more did very well. Unfortunately most of those had a rough year in the thicket and we lost several on bad hogs. Still have some youngsters that we are playing with that seem to have got the trait...but only time will tell. |

There is a good and bad side to running any type dog. It just all depends on the hunters style and preference. When I started hunting it was either on foot or off a horse and we put 4-7 dogs on the ground at the same time... Most of the dogs being able to catch by themselves and mostly short-medium range. Problem being multiple catching/ bayings and dogs gettin injured too often. I tried lose baying dogs and for me that never really worked to well. Now I run rougher curs that will catch on most hogs but have enough sense to back down off a sho nuff hog and wait for the catch dog. Right now I do have 2 yella males that'd I'd consider your poacher type dogs you were talking about. And they will try to catch before you ever hear a bark. One does hunt between 200-500 yards and the other would rather just make sure no hogs sneak up and chew your feet off... He might hunt 200 yards out on a really good day but he ain't gone long but he is probably the main one id consider an RCD. Dogs like that can make for a quick hunt that's for sure and you don't gotta lead nothin round the woods which in my opinion is a plus.

I have never fully trusted a cut dog when it caught unless all of them caught. I have always sent my bull dog. Now I don't have little ones nor do I think of of my bull dogs would harm anything but a hog, how ever I do understand the concern. I prefer game dogs just because of the heart which I'm not totally confident you could get with a yella dog. Yellowblackmask I know you've been raising yella dogs for a long time. And I've only been in the business 6 or 7 years. I know these cur dogs will take a beating and stay in ones face but will they take a gutting and stay on ones ear?

In my life time I have had 3 straight catch cur dogs and trusted all of them fully, 2 were catahoula and 1 yellow black mouth. In 37 years their the only 3 tho, after they faded away I had to go to bull dogs, but would love to have another straight catch cur.

I had tried to go with some cur dog crosses for some RCD, and let me say that there are some out there that will die on the hog BUT,,, they are the exception to the rule when it comes to pain tolerance and sense. Just last yr ,, I had to deal with this issue on a big barr we had caught.. Thankfully I had brought another c/d and one of my strike dogs would lock down with him or we would've been in a bind. One c/d locked down on a 325 pd hog aint much help if u know what I mean. Heart and sense is a trait you will find in some breeds not ALL breeds,, so it don't matter if a man decides to run game bred pits to dogos,,, the art of culling needs to be practiced more..
