They had the hog bayed and I turned the pup loose about 75 yards away from it and I wasn't expecting it but he went straight to the bay but of course they busted gonna go give it another shot today
Did the hog break before the pup got there? Are you sure that the pup didn't make it to the bay?
If you think there is a possibility the pup made it to the bay- you may want to go to where you think the dogs were bayed. I would hate for you to walk in and find a deceased pup, but at least you would know.
