here is the hog that did the wrecking to us.

Nice. Only good hog is a dead hog.

What if your hunting your bird dog and it gets killed by a snake? Or maybe gets heat stroke? He died doing what he loves is what you would say. How is it any different? Bred to hunt. When you deal with animals ,no matter if it is horses, cows or dogs, etc.... Things happen.

Has not happened yet so I can't comment on it.

Just like you dont hitch your travel trailer up to a prius you dont take an irish setter hog hunting. All dogs have different builds personalities and temperments that make them good at what they do. I wouldnt take my beagle hoggin either, but she would love some coon huntin probably!

haha a coon would eat a beagle up they bred for rabbits , alot of yall prolly dont know a coon can kill a dog quick if they get them in the water

Nice pig. I know several of those guys and if thats the landowner sitting on the hog I know the ranch also. Lot of pigs in that area.

Where the Red Fern Grows

Sorry for your loss.

In that book they had redbone coon hounds

Here's my coon hounds a Bluetick an a black an tan

vests have a much better chance of killing a bay dog due to heat exhaustion than one getting caught up and ripped by a hog. as stated earlier, the bay dog isnt supposed to be in tight with the hog in the first place.

X 100

Sorry bout your dog dude, And sorry your catching so much crap. Nice hog.

To the Original Poster ( M Bennet), sorry about the loss man. Bottom lines to the rest, this is his hunt and his dog. [censored] happens and he has explained it and he really didn't need to.

everyone is entitled to their opinion but lets be real here. This was unfortunate accident that doesn't need a bunch of blame heaped on it.

hey guys thanks to all,iv still been catching pigs and taking new guys out and showing them my way.and trainning pups and were having fun.hope all of you are doing the same.good luck hunting this week end.

Good looking hounds. best hound i ever had was a bluetick/black and tan cross.

thanks, they just started real good , the black n tan better treeing , the blue would rather run a track lol but they gettin it figure out an will get one treed

Sorry you lost your dog. One of the top things on my bucket list is huntin hogs behind dogs. Would love to go sometime.

is that black and tan silent on the track? and will that bluetick stay at the tree?? its hard to beat 2 dogs that work together well. are they male or female?

Im not a dog runner, But my family has always used dogs for hunting. Let me tell you, those dogs got treated a whole lot better then me and my other two brothers did. They are part of the family. They love what they do. And I'm pretty sure that goes for all hunting dogs. They are part of your family. We have some dogs that wear protection and hunt just fine. And then we have some that wont hunt at all with gear on. Then you take it off and BAM, they are new dogs and kick butt. And I do know one thing, Bay dogs dont go in to the thick of the s**t. Something happened that wasnt supposed to happen.
Bennet,
Im truly sorry for your loss. I hope you'll be able to fill the void.

they both wide open on track lol , they both can run an tree there own coon , the black dog will just stay treed , an the bluetick will get boerd if she trees to long by her self

Stupid hogs obviously can't tell the difference between a strike dog and a catch dog.

If you want to show some fatherless youth how to hunt with dogs i have some that want to learn.

m. bennett, tough loss brother. some of these folks on here love to talk about what they know nothing about.. i raised dogs for cow work for a time and have always liked wrking dogs.. i recently got invited to go out and hunt w/ a couple of bay teams and 3 strike dogs and i had a great time, i went out about 10 times w/ these guys and well let's just say i am hooked.. good luck hunting.. you ever want someone to bring the cold drinks, or run the dumb end of the leash pm me.. ttyl
