To me a hogdog is a dog that produces hogs no matter where you turn it loose or what you turn it loose with. It has nothing to do with being trash broke or whether or not it will sit or roll over or jump in your truck. It has only to do with if the dog produces hogs consistently and Its a dog that when I turn it loose I EXPECT to go to him bayed.  But people have very different standards for dogs. And some dogs only  produce according to the situation and the  land being hunted. People love to brag about what they are breeding for and what all a dog has to do for them to feed it and how long it has to run and how old a track it has to take  but in reality people hunt what they have at the time and if they are smart will hunt a dog to their strength. If a dog is a good track dog you put them on tracks. If a dog is a good rig dog you let him rig. If a dog is a good cast dog you turn him loose where hogs are and let him run. I'd love to have a yard full of dogs that hunt exactly how I want and looked how I want and ran how long I want and everything else in every situation but that only happens on the internet.
I don't reference any dog as finished, to me that's a dumb term with way too many variables. But I do call a dog a HOGDOG if he earns it.
