That is the one and only Hoss. I couldn't let this topic go without braggin on Big Hoss a little hahaha. I am defintiely biased when it comes to him. He is 81lb in shape.

He is retired now but he has caught plenty of hogs and did it in style. He is extremely intelligent and has done everything I have asked of him. He is fast and as athletic as you would want. But as much as I like him, he is not without faults. If he is fresh and not been hunted in a while his first couple of catches back he might take a bad line in and just smash the hog, which is fine and will still catch the hog but it puts extra damage on him that wasn't necessary. But when he has been hunted regularly and is rolling he can really put on a show and do some special things.

He showed himself to be very reliable and I can only think of one time where he out right missed, though there was probably one or two others even though I can't recall them. The last one I hunted with that was as good or better was when I hunted with his half brother that Tdog owned name Hondo. Since then I have hunted with a lot of decent dogs and some not so decent but none that even come close to him. What really stood out about him was how fast he was even though you wouldn't have guessed it, and his mouth, man he can crunch and would crush skulls of small hogs and destroy big hogs as well. If you let another catch dog catch with him you def knew which side Hoss caught on.

I have been looking for a top notch bitch to breed him to for the last 3 or 4 years but havn't found anything yet though I am still looking.
