There are Cur breeds that are inherently catchy cracker Curs for example many who own them have never owned a bulldog and don't need several to catch a hog.Many can do it all alone and 2 can definitely get the job done. Same goes with the Cambells I own these dogs originated as crosses but have been fine tuned and line bred for a long time. They may not be Rcds but are damn close these are a couple of dogs I run.So I will run a Rcd on the ground with a couple of these dogs and it works really well. Doesn't matter where I put them out either ain't never seen these magical hogs that are uncatchable when people say that a Rcd won't work here or won't work there.A hog is a hog and there are many ways to catch a hog that work and a properly used Rcd can definitely be an asset rather than a liability. I would never put a Rcd on the ground with dogs I wasn't positive would catch hard and till the end with him.In my opinion there are a couple types of hog hunters and hog dogs there's the find em catch em fast type or the find em run the wind out of em then catch em both ways have the same desired ending just a different approach. When running a rough pack paired with a true Rcd then things gain a sense of urgency and intensity. Although I don't think that you loose more dogs this way you do have to get to them as quickly as possible no matter what.
