To shoot or to catch, that is the question

First off, any dog, whether cur or bulldog that grabs another dog is culled. I may give a young dog one chance and one chance only, but there is no second chance. Second, no self respecting hogman carries a gun on their person where I am from while in the woods. A pistol is kept on the buggy, boat, wheeler, or truck, depending on what we are hunting off or out of. The only reason that pistol is there is to either cull or have to put a dog down. We have always hunted with cur "catch" dogs. They are expected to do so. If you are too scared to grab one, you need to stay home. We eat the piss out of free range pork and would never kill and let lay. All hogs are either tied and brought out, cut and turned loose, or killed on the spot with a pocket knife and drug or quartered out. To each their own.
