Hands down no bones about it my old bosses Brittany Spaniel, not a hogdog I know but I can't honestly say ive ever worked with a dog as switched on as her, as far as hog dogs go my Great Uncle Maurice had a leopard cur that would knock your hat in the creek.

I have had quite a few good mtn curs but the very best I had was striking at about 4 months old. He could figure most any track out strike most any dog and he could line out a track like it was a piece of cake. He was a yellow dog about 55-58 pounds 1/2 bmc and 1/2 mtn cur.

I have to mention another dog that a friend bought out of Sea Drift, Texas back in the mid 1980's that was a pretty good strike dog but his biggest strength was stopping most any hog he struck. He was a red gold colored BMC about 60 lbs. and he was easy to look at. This dog was bred by someone who knew what a good working dog is supposed to look like.  Had the best chop mouth I ever heard.

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...

Best hog dog was 1/2 mtn cur 1/2 red bone, (still alive)  her mother was probably my all time favorite dog. put alot of meat in the freezer, she caught alot of bear and hog, was a little too gritty, which cost her her life about 2 yrs ago. turned 8 dogs loose in front of her (not mine), right on a bears hind end, and she was the only one that had a scratch, well, she had ALOT more than a scratch.

I have hunted with some "sure enough" good ones but probably the best hog dog that I have ever seen hunt was a BMC named "Buddy" owned and bred by Anthony Sechelski out of Navasota TX.
Buddy was killed by a deer hunter bayed on a hog about 18 years ago.

A half Plott and half Leopard named Bo, from San Augustine TX.  Put on a cold track, free cast, whatever.  He defined a long range dog.  He was also one of the best bay dogs that I have ever seen.

You could turn him out in the middle of town and he was going to a hog.
