I use to get dogs cut all the time . I was one of the old ones that said I aint putting no vest on my dogs they run to hot and so and and so on . But here a few years ago after going threw 11 staple guns and a couple of dogs killed , I learned my lesson . I started vesting all my dogs with good vest and the major cuttings have all but dissapeared . Sure I still get one cut every now and then but it has been noting life threating as of yet knock on wood. I run a ruff pack of dogs now just like I use to and getting ruffer by the breeding and on purpose .

I tell ya I bought a new catch vest from P and P here a month are so ago and we have been on some pretty dang bad boar hogs with good teeth and the vest has taken a pounding already but no cut threws and in some of the places it took hits I would have surely had a dead dog on my hands. The same goes for my find dogs I dont run any dogs in my pack that cannot find their on hogs and they are pretty ruff and I vest them with good solid vest and I got to say those vest look like you shot them with buckshot . Matter of fact getting them all new vest made and having them all speical made for each dog which is a heavy heavy bay/catch vest with this are that on them and cut collars sewen on with a short chin peice . I try not to run real long range dogs no more they hunt from 200 to 800 most the time but will travel a hell of a long ways after they get on one if they cannot get him stopped . Thats why am adding more and more stop power as I go along here the hell with all those marthons !

Good vest has made all the difference in the world around my place .
