I have had one for about 2yrs now and am very impressed. I was worryied about him not having the heart or the jaw that my pits do. I had nothing to worry about. He hates a hog and will catch until you break him off, has a head full of sense, and definitly puts my worryies to ease when I am working graveyards and my wife and daughter are home alone

. I have been leaving him on the chain the last few hunts and just carrying my little pit cause I sure hate to loose him but I think I hurt him more doing that. My wife said he just sits there and howls the WHOLE time I am gone.
