Just to give everyone a heads up. I lost a good solid older dog to Psuedorabies this week. She was hunted twice a week for the last couple months, Healthy as could be, and not yet 10 years old.

100% fine and healthy one evening to dead in less than 24hrs. All the classic symptoms. I hope not to have to deal with it again for a long time.

  Sure hate to hear this. We have had to deal with this a couple of times over the years.

Thanks yall

T-dog a spot i have been hunting 10+ years. Best I can think of is caught two hogs about 100#s last Saturday. One boar and one sow with a shoat pig. She got it Thursday so 5 day incubation sounds about right.  She recently lost a k9 and had the socket open. May have had something to do with it.....but that is pure speculation.

She caught the hogs with her pups that are 2 1/2. As of yesterday they did not show any signs. Fingers crossed they stay that way. They get it and ill be out of the dpg game.

Bad thing is I cut the boar and turned him loose as well as the sow and shoat.

The dog that died, her great grandmother died from psuedorabies about 15 years ago along with 3 other dogs. My buddy that had here has hunted for 50 years. That is the only time he ever dealt with it.

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...

Man I hope the young dogs don’t get it!!! I’m sure we all have released some hogs that we wouldn’t have had we known they weren’t fit for it.
