Father and I were walking the new 600 acre property he bought last week in Oakhurst. We took my dog out to see if he could get us on a couple. Well Saturday was pretty windy so we just sat along a creek bottom and nothing. Sunday we got out there around 6:30am and decided to walk the property, well after an hour and a half we started our trip back to the truck and my dog took off on a trail and we just ignored him and kept going. After about 10 minutes that he was gone he began barking and you could hear nothing but squealing coming from a creek bottom. Well when i made it down to the creek he had a nice size boar bayed up in a corner, so when my dog stepped away a bit i took a shot and hit him behind the shoulder, pig took off with my dog intact. He made it about 20 yards and expired. While walking up to the boar i noticed a nice sow about 30 yards to my left, well my dog noticed the same and he latched on and i was able to walk up and put a round in her and the fun for really began. I couldnt believe how strong these dogs are, he held her for over a minute until she expired. But all in all it was a great weekend and some more good training for him. These would make number four for him while hunting solo.

May be a really dumb question. But what breed of dog to you have? And do they pretty much have the hunt and hold bred into them or is there serious training time involved? I've seen bird dogs with no real training work great and those with all kinds of training give folks fits. Guess it depends on the individual dog? Congrats to you and your dog.
