Yes Noah, Scarlet is the young red female I have that wanted to jump on your 100 lb Dogo every time she saw him. I have never had her fight or even offer to fight before or since, but she sure didn't like his looks!! Maybe she didn't know dogs got that big....

Allen, when Spur lost a testicle to a boar hog last year I was kidding about renaming him after the famous chinese dog Wun Hung Lo......  Then he got his pecker about cut off, and Krystal put him back together. I have been told I need to have a Kevlar diaper made for him....  Now I think I will have to change his name to Timex, because he takes a licking and keeps on ticking!! LOL

Good hogs. Why don't you turn that dog loose when them other ones are baying instead of shooting them ?

Cricket is a young dog that has only been on about 5-6 hogs. And while she is catchy, she is NOT a catch dog...and there is a BIG difference.
I don't want to turn a dog that I don't know for sure is going to catch, to my good dogs that are bayed, have that dog run in, miss the catch or not catch properly, and get my other dogs wrecked or killed. When a dog goes in to catch, Monkey is going to catch also, and if that other dog fails to catch, Monkey will be caught on the hog by himself and take the punishment.
I would MUCH rather catch the hogs than shoot them, but under the right conditions. My Monkey dog is worth 500 boar hogs to me and I am not going to put him at more risk trying to catch a big boar hog in a bad spot with a dog that may or may not catch............
If I still had my old Rock dog, that would have been a caught hog.
I take Cricket hoping to bay a 100 lb or so hog backed up in palmettos or somewhere my other dogs will bay it and not catch it. Once I see its not a dog wrecker, I will turn Cricket loose, and let her catch it, or try to. If she misses, the other dogs will catch it, but at least I can get her some experience and build her confidence this way. She may turn into a catchdog, but she has a looonnnggg way to go before I trust her to catch on a 200 lb + boar hog.
Until then, we catch what we can.
