Black streak do your dogs bay at all or just catch when they see one or catch on command etc.? I'm sure you've said  before but I'm not real smart and can't remember

     Often times the young dogs will do a mixture of barking and lugging  for the first several weeks to couple of months.   By about 15 months old they are catching their own but not 1 out big boar hard yet.    18 to 20 months they are straight catch 1 out big boar hard.           I have Alaunts and BoarHounds.    Some in each breed and type have no back-up before a year old and others in each progress to this type hardness over the course of several months.        I'm improving the dogs each breeding though.      The Alaunts go back to the long dogs and hairy dogs I started with.      The BoarHounds are a new project taken up in the last couple years prompted by the need to outcross to such a breed.          The BoarHound does everything the Alaunt does but with more drive and passion but because the BoarHound is such an extreme dog, they often are not practical like the Alaunt or my old hairy dogs.    It's a big undertaking to gain the mental controle of such a BoarHound when he is switched on.    It's an awsome sight and very inspiring.   The BoarHound stirs inspiration in me that no other dog does but the very things about them that stir this inspiration makes them so impractical and hard to manage when they are switched on.    I'm not sure yet whether I really want to fully transition BoarHound or just keep them at arms length.      I do so well with the Alaunt.   The Alaunt is perfect for me.   Only problem is I have to create my own and to do that I need good BoarHounds.    Only 2 people in the US breeding actual BoarHounds and one of them is me.     Keeping and developing 1 breed and 1 type is a lot of dogs for someone who only desires 5 dogs tops.    So it's like a revolving door around my place and always working with young dogs and have more dogs than I want.    So you'll see dogs in the pictures now and then that are sometimes 3 dogs on a pig or a dog in a picture that's not lugged up properly.     This is because they are very green and real young.            Hope this helps answere your question about bark and why I can't say none give any bark at any stage in their life and why you will see dogs occasionally in the pictures not lugged up properly or more than 1 or 2 dogs per pig.
