The only thing that I hunted with that didn't was the cat/pit. Most of them are gone now for one reason or the other my male ridgeback has and the rest I have are pups but are finding my little pigs outside of the pen so think they will be able to find them in the woods.

Is a RCD a strike dog that will catch his own pigs or is it a dog you let go on a group of running?

My definition is a dog that will catch that you let run around with the pack that can strike a hog

i know a guy that uses yellow labs , they dont have the lung that a cur does but they are some catching fools .  bark couple times then catch .  guess any dog that runs loose and catches can be considered rcd ?

What I consider the real deal of a rcd is a dog that finds his own hog  and catches it. I have one that winds or trails hogs, he is 1/2 cat, 1/4 Lab, 1/4 pit. Bad ass dog feels no pain, used him mainly as lead in catch this last winter.

If you go back a couple yrs on this board and read any of the older post about running RCDs, you wont see any mention of one finding or expected to find pigs. Old oppions from what I ever saw was that bully type breeds had no nose to find pigs. Obviously views on the subject are changing. But I prefer to use the old discription of an RCD being a catch dog that runs with your strike dogs. In my oppion it keeps misunderstandings down about what kind of dog your talking about. Example, If you call my best finder/holder an rcd you just sold his abilities short big time. The best way i can put in words would be the old opinion of catch dog price. No more than $200 for a catch dog that has one job to do. And in some sercumstances not expected to last long. How ever if you call my best dog a RCD were talking about a dog with years of training, excellent handle, able to run through a herd of exotics of any kind, and catch the pig on the other side without incident leaveing me with the confidence that if he made run through a piece of woods there were no pigs there to be cought. That why I prefer to call my dogs finder/holders vs RCDs. To me they are two differnt type of dogs.
