to much hunt?

[Bo Pugh]

i like a dog with alot of hunt, its just what i like, i dont like them coming back looking around up at me and hanging out. my best 2 dogs when you see a track in the road you need to know if they can take it or not before you let them go cause if they cant their not coming back their going on hunting in that direction i send them. i consider that hunt, my old dog when he gets on the track you cant cut him off at all no matter what you do, you have to wait him out until he bays or gives out,  if the hog crosses the road and you drive up there before he gets across he will go way around and come back down the edge of the road just out of sight until he gets back on the track and i got a young dog off of him thats started doing this same thing this year, its been a many of days i wondered if i was going to ever get them back. but defindtly everybody dont like that kind of dog and i can understand why, you cant hunt them on 200 acres and just turn loose one time and go home and you have to learn how to hunt that type of dog

Get a dog in you pack such as that and he makes your buddies dogs look like crap.  They stop coming out with you to hunt because the entire hunt is centered around that dog,  your buddies dogs are on the back of the buggy and your trying to get those dogs close enough to the one dog that can't get his hog shut down but here and there.   Your buddy gets tired of his dogs becoming help dogs and also gets tired of staying out so late and putting in so much effort for 1 pig or to retrieve 1 dog.
    Other things I've seen happen that a dog like this wrecks is a time limite on the hunt.    Wife wants to go hunting but has to be back at the truck by such and such time cause the young kids get off the school bus at 4:30 and no one is home yet.    Only way you can get your dog is to get the catch dogs to him and catch the pig then dive in to catch the dog before he goes for another.     Really perturbs the wife lol.      Sometimes it works out and sometimes you got to walk the catch dogs back out, go home, drop the wife off and go back.           Them kinda dogs really make life interesting and are very fun to hunt behind for some and not so much for other people.

My jagd hunts hard and wont stop hunting ive had to leave him at the property a few times  with my shirt laid next to a tree. When i come back he will be there ive also learned to put a long weedeater string on his collar about 20 feet. But will never get rid of this dog he's  the best dog ive had so far. Im just gonna have to get use to hunting big properties and not the 200 acres that ive been gonna have to let the hogs get comfortable in there first before i take him there. My only worry  is coyotes and some a- hole stealing him or shooting him.

last part of this is my greatest worry with my dogs. They can get out far sometimes... And I mean far. Like 3-5 miles as a crow flys. Not every time we hunt but it happens... Every time one of my dogs goes that far I have this sick feeling in my stomach that something is going to happen like that; stealing, ran over, shot, ect. Hard to know when they are going to feel like putting their nikes on, but it happens and it's hard to deal with sometimes.

Black streak. Sounds like you get tired of your finder/holders riding around in the buggy

What on Gods green earth makes you think finder holder dogs were in on hunts like that?        Is it because i have finder holder that you think I don't know much about any other style of hunting or any other type of dogs or haven't had them in the past?

RyanTBH, having a handle on my dogs is a sense of pride I guess you could say I get, but their not innocent babies either, if it's a good hot race or a good bay then they are like any other dog and going to be there, if it's just one of them running or baying then I have been able to call them out, unless their just smoking him I can easily catch them off at a crossing, these 3 that I'm talking about have been sent to the school of hard knocks and got their diplomas they know the tones of my voice and a shock collar lol.

[/ And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that style of hunting, if the man feeding the dogs hunting and paying for the fuel to get there and it's his spot. So what, the friends are just going to have to get with the program or find new hunting partners and the wife is just going to have to b!t€h. I for one am a size Hunter, I'll ride all morning trying to find a big track to put on and when we do my dogs will be used on this hog as will the other guys I hunt with and their dogs, it's what we like to do. Those types of dogs aren't "wrecking" anything their what we choose to feed and hunt. No different from a man who likes box or fight mma style or a fella who likes to ride races horses and one likes bucking horses, we all get to choose our own style of dog to hunt, just because it doesn't catch the Whif of a hot track and run it down and catch doesn't mean it's wrecking anything man. Did you get your feelings hurt by this style of dog before or something?

Lol man those damn collars work. I really want to get the new system with them built in. Mike had one and it set my two straight really quick. I like mine wild enough to listen to me... Lol

if hes tired of hauling his number 2 around in the back of a buggy because they didnt get in on the first turn out or didnt stay in the race he needs to get a gun and start culling is all i can say i have had some dogs when i first started hunting that got hauled around alot while others wasw in the race it didnt take me long to figure out what a 22 was made for . i dont care if anyone wants to hunt with me or not i just assume go by myself anyway most of the time.if i have a time limit i wont go or ill take some young dogs and make it back in time. my wife has learned its probably best f she just stay at hime unless she wants to be gone all day anyway so thats no trouble for me. i cant come up with any reason for keeping any kind of dog that dont have alot of hunt.

[Reuben]

Bo Pugh...Amen to that..

[Mike]

Tri-Tronics is your friend. I train all mine to come to the tone... if I need to leave, whether they're out hunting or in a race, they'll come to the tone.

[Goose87]

I'm with you mike, my dogs will roll out and hunt on their own, but when daddy needs or wants to go home they know it to, one of my gyps will sometimes come out to you if she's just hunting and you call her, she will stand there and stare at you out of arms reach for about 30 seconds then she's gone, that huzzy is listening to see if she here's that tone from a shock collar, if she's wearing one she's a dream to handle, you don't even need to use it, but if not she's a little more head strong.

[LoftinCattleCo]

I'd rather chase a dog for 12 hours than have 1 follow me for 2... I've got several 5k+ acre tracks I hunt and my personal preference is the bigger the motor the better.
