I knew this day would come sooner or later but lost by far the best dog I've ever owned, he was going on 8yrs old and I wish I knew the number of hogs this dog found for me and hunting buddies he was one of those dogs that would hunt for any and everyone because he wasn't out there for me or anyone else, he hunted because he loved to find pigs and put them through pure hell, I've had this dog striking hogs since he was 8 months old and never slowed down until last night caught a hog and only thing I can guess is he had a heart attack, we legged the hog and no dogs was cut all the sudden he let out a bawl and layed on his back and that was it, he did his job day in and day out no different than any of us he trained more dogs by himself than I could ever dream of and because of that we have a lot of pups that are finding their own hogs now, here are a few of the memories we have together

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...
