2 ways  of catching a runner. Catch it before it has a chance to run or catch it when it decides to stop. I prefer the first.




What would keep you from catching a pig while it's running?

I don't have much problem running down pigs in most of that stuff with the exception of the briars.       My dogs are bred with speed being a huge consideration and a must.  If the struggle to quickly overtake a fast pig then more speed needs to be added back in to the next generation

I'm with Corbell. Whether 3 dogs string one out or one loose dog backs up and bays the hog is stopped. Different terrain calls for different type dogs

Now I ain't ever caught tons of hogs or had the best dogs but they got me by. The way we started huntin we walked hunted big tracks a government land and the hogs were gonna run. I preferred mine to back up and bay just because they were liable to be 2 miles from me when they got it stopped and it might take me a while to get there. My male dog would catch but he was dumb about it
