i tell you what the more you handle your dogs the better they are going to be every dog i have on my yard i trust to be around my kids they are rough but they know there limits hell my 65 pound rednose pitt catch dog might as well be a house dog and my kids can do anything to that big block head and he loves it but when you put that vest and collar on him he knows its show time i cant stand hunting with people that have dogs that they cant control you turn them loose and then you cant catch them every dog i have knows how to sit, lay, and stay and i catch hogs with them all the time.
well said i agree 100%
