My question for those with more experience is do you evaluate and cull differently for catch dogs than strike dogs? It's often glaringly obvious when a catch dog screws up, not so much with a strike dog so how does that effect your deciscion?
I evaluate and cull catch dogs different than strike dogs But my standard is the same... They must Produce..
A catch dog at my house has only one job, Catch on the ear.. I will show a catchdog a hog about 3 times by the time he's a year old.. At a year old if he's not catching I get rid of him... If a catchdog quits a hog and leaves I cull him..
