Caught 3 more hogs with him this week in the Tx snow, power was out so made a hunt. On the ear hard had to be broke off 2 of the hogs after they were dead.
1 hog he was caught on the back leg bc the 2 other cds were on the ear 1st, I got to the bay late, it was already squealing but I cut him anyhow so I didnt have to lead him, when dogs bay his lead in calmly skills are not there lol. One of the 2 things with the 9 hogs hes caught that is different than avg. bulldogs, is if there is not an open ear he wont knock a dog off to get the ear he will just catch somewhere else, the other thing is he has not caught shoats he guts/kills them.  If there is an ear open hes on it like clock work, caught hard no regripping.
He has not broke a bay yet he didnt shut down within a short race and holds real clean keeping his body out of bad spots when possible, the meaner the hog the harder he gets, liking what I see so far, the speed and endurance is a very noticeable strength.

On the way to our curs baying (we were still 900 yds away) a pig ran out of the woods saw our atvs and ran back in the tree line, since we had him and 2 other finished cds and curiosity got to me I cut him loose where the pig ran out, he ran in the woods nose down and caught it about 60 yds from where we cut him, no bark straight ear sent my finished dogo to him bc it was grunting and not squealing, stuck it and almost threw my back out trying to rip them off the ears.
