Well decided to load up the dogs Wednesday evening after the rain let up, so me and the brother and buddy went to a ranch down the road and cast Sammy, Lucky, Brindle, and Sweety out at a duck slew. They hunted out about 600 yards and circled behind us so we drove up to the camp to check around, maybe find some old sign. Well directly after killing the ranger, a hog let out a squeal and brindle and Sweety hit the woods. About a minute later they both start chopping. Sammy makes her way to the 2 pups and starts hammering, by this time we figure it's a good hog since everything I have is rough. Walk in to the bay and send Pearl and she sticks ear. The hog is facing us so as we're trying to work around him he knocks pearl off on a youpon and takes off. They number 2 him down about 80 yards in an opening and little brother legs him. He was pretty salty, ended up cutting 3 out of 5. They'll be out of work for about another month but at least nothing life threatening. Felt good to finally tie one after nearly 4 months of no hunting.    Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Thank y'all. These dogs are sure some tuff dogs and will heal up good. Bolo- when I Barr a hog I put a tag in their ear, guess their weight and write the date down and when/if I catch them again I'll see how much they gained and whatnot

I've just recently started tagging them, so none yet, but I've caught some I've marked in the past. They seem to put a ton of weight on after the first year, and depending on how good of an acorn crop we have in the fall
