Hi all...i am a new member to this site but have been hunting wild pigs for years...where do you say??...in New Zealand of course....I'm here to just give my 2 cents worth about what type of dog is considered as being worthy of making the grade as a top pigdog...He/she has to have 3 main attributes...1)..Speed....2)..the ability to think ahead.. and 3)..the heart for the sport,and whatever else will naturally fall into place. I have a bitch over 2 yrs old that can pull up a good boar by herself....ass end the boar which keeps him in one place and then bails which lets me know where to find her
