Just curious has anyone ever used a heeler for hogs? If so how did it do and do you have any pics of them?

Thanks,
Jeremy

In 1984 or so i had a blue healer , not the short stocky dogs seen now, he was tall and weighed about seventy pounds . He did very good on hogs @ would catch smaller hogs . Also had a half healer that i hunted with him , killed lots of hogs with them . They would sit a hog down !!! HUNT'UM UP !!!!

I had a male that was really good and no hogs broke when he was on the ground. I'm going to get another here soon. Hunted out about 300 but checked.in and id tell him to get ahead and he'd hunt again. Dang good help dog!!!

There is a guy on the Parker Cur Dog Forum that goes by the name of Dixie. He has one that runs with the rest of his dogs. Log on and read his past posts.
