If I was hunting a place with big fields and could go see hogs in it or just ride around and see hogs in roads and such id like me 2 or 3 dogs that don't bark and just catch and not run one all day cause it's some more in the next field over. But where I hunt and how I hunt I load 3 or 4 in my fourwhweler box and ride until i see something I like and depending on which dogs I have turn loose or not. If I have pups or I'm with someone and they want to turn loose on the first bit of sign we see it's fine with me but if I'm by myself or with certain buddy's we like to pass up on little hogs and try to find something a little better to run. I try to leave one dog in the box and sometimes I get carried away and put them all on the track but I try to leave one in the box to pack in later on if one falls out of the race or splits off etc. i like to watch the garmin as they trail it and work out the track then get it jumped and go to where they cross a road and look and see if it's the same track I turned on. And most of the time I really enjoy for them to run it awhile a couple hours is usually fine with me I guess I like for them to have to work a little harder and I don't care about catching a pile of hogs when I go as long as I get on a good track and a good race I'm happy especially when I have some young dogs and they take the lead in the race or cast good. And I don't get in a hurry going to them bayed I try to take my time and usually it takes me a little while to get their anyway so I don't expect them to run 2 or 3 miles then come back they better keep on. That's just how I like to hunt and what I like and expect in dogs and I'll lead in my bulldog if I can or cut him loose from the fourwhweler and drive in to him as quick as I can unless I hear some squealing. It's just like anything else you have to adapt to what you got and where you hunt
