Your call did not come as a surprise as I knew her end was near.  So sad to see her go.  I remember our first hunts with her.  Anytime she was in the woods, she was on a mission.  Very methodical, intense, and purposeful with every loop she made.  If there was a hog there or had been there, he was in great peril of being found and caught.  I remember hunting down thru the palmetto flat baying and catching one hog right after another.  She was a pleasure to hunt with and it was much fun to watch her work.  Too bad there are not more dogs like her, but those are very rare.

Monkey has left an impressive legacy also.  Time for some new/young blood to begin making their mark.

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...

cole...I have had quite a few dogs that were what I considered excellent hog dogs...but I had one that was born great...he showed me some things I had never seen before from a little pup and he only got better as he got older...he seemed to always strike first or was right there with the other dog...but he would make a big circle and be baying the hogs before the other dogs lined the track out...when he got older he slowed down...but if you watched him you would know he still had it...let him out and he would make a circle and he didn't come back in 5 minutes he knew there were hogs there and he would be baying shortly...if he came back you could bet on no hogs...he would stay close and all the dogs would be out hunting...but once he slipped off he might be baying a 1/2 mile or more away and ahead of the other dogs...he made it look easy...honestly I don't think I will ever have another dog like ole yeller...
