on the ear and ear only a jowl catch is hard to hold on to, because of the flex in the flesh( to much fat) a snout catch is more dagerous than people think both for you the dog and the pig( which if you never tie isnt a great big deal at all b/c hes about to die anyway) and a leg catch is completly useless hogs can still turn to fast and on a bad one your dog is dead before you get there. personally i belive the best way is to either have two cds or one cd and baydogs that will catch the head w/ the cd (rather 2 cds cause i dont like seein dogs get poked and bled out specially good strike dogs) ive seen really large hogs 350+ not be able to move w/ 2 cds on them at all and not even think of cuttin a dog when them two dogs are tryin to rip his head in two but they cant catch on the edge of the ear they have to get down on it....just my thoughts
What I was meaning was the other dogs would have a better chance of not getting cut with the dog on the snout. Also fully vested, I really don't care for the hogs snout either, if i did i wouldn't run catch dogs
