man i heard those would whip some dogs down. we dont have thae where i am at

To be so small they are very mean!!!!

camo where are yall from

We are from Andrews tx...West tx

ya thats some nice country

HEY !!A hogs  a hog ive been a many a times wishn i had 1 that size. Nice set of dogs ya got there!!!!!

Each to there own. but i would sugest breaking them off the javeys because i promise you nothing good will come out of it. I have lost several good ones to them now we break them off as pups.  And black hog a they are not hogs they are closer to rats.

They don't slash, they bite......and will pack up on a dog quick.

Bad news.

heard bad things bout them, also heard of old timers usin hounds to help cull them, good catch none the less

You don't want nothing to do with them I promise you.  I would suggest to break your dogs from them or stay away from the places that have them.  And there not even close to a hog, don't get them mistaken.

Trust me i didnt want that one!! Wow those suckers are mean!!

I know down in south TX they are everywhere. When I'm down on the ranch I plow em over constantly. I've always wondered how dogs would do because I've seen a pack of those things run off 5+ deer. Two of those deer were BIG BOYZ too, and I didn't realize they were that rowdy! When I get home I'll post a pic of the razors on those things... pretty incredible.

They will def ruin your hunt!!  I use to like baying em up just shoot em.  Now my dogs wont mess with them and I dont mind at all!! They will sure cut the dogs up quick and work as a team to get it done.

Hard little critters to handle. I'm from midland. Where bouts you hunting ?

They are all over the place down here- we kinda gotto steer our hunts around them because they will gang up on a dog.  It's definately not a good feeling when the dogs take off and you can hear those mean things popping their teeth.  They are some tuff things to kill.   

Maybe a mod will erase the post. They are considered game animals.

Cantexduck,

      I don't know the game laws so maybe you can help me out here.   Can one hunt javelina with dogs in Texas?  I'm just not real sure what the actual issue is with this post.  It doesn't say how they killed the Jav., just that the dogs trashed on it, and then there is a pic of a dead Jav.    If you don't mind, post up the law so we can all be informed.

Thanks,
Chris

Didnt check to season bag limits for each county but the ones I did see were 2 javelinas.  The North Zone is the only counties with a season on them.

South Zone  Counties have no closed season with 2 javelinas per licensed year.

If this doesnt make sense to anyone look up Texas Parks and Wildlife website.

Knife is not a legal means to take game animal. Dogs can not be used to pursue game animal so even if it was shot ,still illegal. Just don't want someone to get in trouble. I gave seen wardena use the internet. A fed warden caused a huge stink years and years ago over someone hitting an owl in the truck then taking pic of it. Call Texas parks and wyldlide if you need too.

To all i wasnt trying to hunt this dang pig!! It just happend, what does a guy do in this situation?? I had to do what i had to do!!! before my dogs got hurt!!! Thanks

I dont know if it matters but the  hunt went down in New mexico!!!

for all it matters it happened in MEXICO anyway rolleyes ;D ;)

My godfather owns a game ranch in south Texas and he said that you can take as many of them as you want if they are on your land and screwing with your crops or management activities.
