Thanks so much for sharing this. I enjoyed every minute of the podcast. I loved the thoughtfulness and kindness in your answers about breeding and hunting different types and styles of dogs. Thank you Mr. Cauley.

Yes Sir, when we are opening them up, right in the tenderloin region there will be worms and infection from the worms boring. I did some research on the internet and figured out what they are. We have found 5 hogs that had them so far this year.

I hunt with some guys who never touch their dogs except to put tracking collars on or off. These dogs will all load up after the hunt is over. If you can't get him to load, I would cull. Think about all the time that is wasted while hunting when someone is trying to catch a coyote acting dog.

I would love to know the secret of getting an average dog to go. I always figured it was genetics. I am used to carrying a pup hunting about five or six times. If he or she ain't left and went hunting by then they gotta live somewhere else.

I don't think there are many of those types of dogs around in today's world. When I was a kid and worked on my Dad's farm we had stock dogs that would work all day, tree squirrels in the daytime and tree coons at night. If we raised a puppy and he didn't fit the bill, he didn't live with us long. Those dogs got up and went to work or went hunting every day. The dogs of today have a disadvantage that those old dogs didn't have: exposure. Most people, like me, have a career and hunt when we can. Hunting two or three times a week for an average of five hours per hunt, I'm lucky to bay as many hogs as I do. I sure don't have time to try to steer them on any other type of game.
Back then, nearly every country family that I knew had a couple of the kind of dogs that you speak of. Today, I bet there aint a handful of em that live in this county.

These are in order of frequency: armadillos, coons, coyotes, jackasses, and turtles, but my all time favorite is some puppies baying an old black garbage bag hung up in a bush that was puffing up and down as the wind blew in it.

We shoot over our dogs on a routine basis. If someone new is going I have a short discussion before the hunt about gun safety and how important the dogs are to me. I tell them to follow me in to the bay and let me call the shot. However, most of the new hog hunters that I have carried are seasoned hunters on other types of game.
