here is the other vid of her. she is young, but with it being her first time, she did good i think. when i put her in, she took off after the first pig she saw, trailing it, not barking, just smelling it. once spook got there, and nipped the first hog and it went to sqealing, she went to baying and followed it, baying at it. then she decided to take on the boar on her own and did good till she decided to try and catch it and he popped her. all she did was back off and went back to baying. i figure 1 more time in the pen in the middle of the week, and then I'm gonna catch the 15 pounder, tie a drag stick to it and put a collar on it and turn it loose and see if she will trail him.

thank you mam. i just flew hm last night from work and after getting a few chores done, i put her in to see how she would react. all in all, id say not bad for her first time in the pen. she sees the hogs everyday, and has watched other dogs work the hogs and would bawl from her kennel and i figured it was time for her to go in. next time, it will be by herself.

i was playing the vid on my phone in the house just after she came in to cool down and dry off, and when she heard herself and the hog squeal, she took off, went outside and strait to the pen.
