Ok it is starting to get on my nerves. A rcd means running CATCH dog. If it bays it is NOT a rcd it is a gritty to rough dog.

and a true running catch dog needs to be short ranged and quit the race if he can not catch the hog in a quarter mile...or it won't live long in my opinion...overheating or taking a whipping from a bad boar with no help around is a problem I don't care to deal with...

rough dogs with a some sense is about as rough as I will ever want...I want medium range with lots of bottom and hunt...and rough to go along with it...

Lol that's funny stuff why would people thought get on your nerves people think what they say is right not what you say lol. Most of my dogs will catch and will catch or be caught together on any hog but they ain't rcd and a few of the I use as catch dogs if a dog ever bays then he will bay again

To me a RCD can find run and catch. A dog that don't go but a 1/4 mile is nothing but a CD u can send. If it can't spend all day on the ground running with the other dogs it ain't a RCD.

a running catch dog that will catch 2 miles deep in the woods won't have a long life span...I was thinking about starting a thread on RCD...I can't say I have lots of experience with them but the ones I was around didn't live long...the borderline rough/catchy were a better choice in my opinion because they back up and bay when needed and catch again if the hog wants to break...

U don't let them get that far from u. U also run them with rough catchy dogs. U also run vest on them. If I walk hunted I would not use one. I hunt off a wheeler. If they are 500 or more yards I'm easing toward them or in the direction they are headed. If my dogs get 700 to 900 yards I'm closing a gap as fast as I can. I don't want an iffy dog. I don't want one that catches anything 250 or less. I want a dog that will catch it if it will grunt or squeal. Them iffy dogs are what gets dogs killed.

an iffy dog alone is fine with me...but when they commit to catching they are committed and should be reliable or it is not a real gritty or catchy dog...

I have what I think most people would consider a running catch dog. He's cur x pit and he will run with the other dogs and catch
anything that they strike. Sometimes he will come back to the truck with us if the sign isn't real hot or the dogs get really far out. As soon as they start barking he's gone though. I'm ok with that because it keeps him from getting to wore out. When he's by himself he will walk hunt out a few hundred yards and has caught many pigs solo this way. When he's by himself he will bark about 3 times then it's on. He has been cut up for sure but never to bad. I run him with other rough dogs and always with a vest.

i evaluate a dogs ability on what he can do on his own ,one dog out.a true rcd will never back up and bay no matter what. Now about the range-if my dog quits on me in 1/4 mile whats that 500 yards or so, i will get rid of him.the way i hunt and where i hunt i can cut over to next block and stay in the game.knowing your woods,having a garmin knowing how to use it,and having physical ability to keep up is whay makes the diferance.now about the type/breed of dog-ha ha i aint going there,thats how one maintains an advantage.

most catch dogs get turned in to the bay from close up for several reasons...one reason is because we want to make sure the hog is not bayed in the middle of a 30'x40' rose hedge and that could get ugly real quick...or turn the dog from too far away and the dog can get over heated by time we make it to the dogs...and the chances of a cur dog getting cut down goes up if caught to long without assistance from us...a good catch dog will never give it up no matter what...he will get the job done or die trying...

now a running catch dog is supposed to be of the same caliber as the lead in catch dog except he runs with the pack...so the issues are the same except we might not be there to assist no matter how young and agile we are...sometimes we can get there quick and other times not...

lots of good cur dogs throw caution to the wind when the catch dog makes it to the bay...

quite a few rough dogs have the sense to gauge themselves in most situations especially if they have made a long chase...fresh out of the box and they sometimes throw caution to the wind...

this is my opinion from my observations/experiences over quite a few years of running dogs...

They should  find , trail & catch  solo not with other dogs.  If it barks its a bay dog.  I've caught some big rank hogs with my male. He might be 200 yards out or a mile out.  Wink
