How did you decide on the dogs you hunt

I have had a couple of Catahoulas that would compare very well with my Plotts but they were exceptions. If my Plotts did not have the nose as good as Dawg or a couple of others they were culled. In a lot of hogs they were much better at relaying then the Plotts altho I have had some Plotts that were very good at relaying. After that last male cur dog that I had, it was just easier to get good dogs out of the Plotts. My current dogs have everything I like in a Plott. Nose, speed, grit and hunt. I hunt them anyway you can hunt a hog. I cast, track hunt, they are exceptional rig dogs. They are not perfect and sometimes leave me scratching my head but most of the time they suit me.
