TX Hill Country Hog Dogs

TX Hill Country Hog Dogs I’m a special operations combat veteran in Texas who has a passion in the Dogo Argentino and Plott Hound breed and using them for hunting hogs. Psalm 34:4

My goal is to share my passion through my dogs and glorfy God in all we do.

Was headed to Fredericksburg to take my wife some Whataburger when I seen these hogs out in the pasture maybe 400 yards from the house.

I debated hard on whether I had enough time to go do my errands or try and get a quick hunt before I went to town and did a lot of time calculations. I decided to follow the wise course and go after them AFTER I took care of my priorities. It would be a few hours but that just made it more challenging and fun.

Got back home after taking care of my errands and seeing my ol lady got her Whataburger. I fired up two collars and grabbed Frio and Duende and took off walking. They were pretty docile on their leads for a while and then when they both tried to pull my arms out of my sockets with their noses to the ground I knew they’d found a track.

I cut them loose and as a well oiled team they both took off to take care of business. Within 2 minutes they had a hog locked up and shut down.

On the way back, I found a dead head and a couple cool looking rocks to add to my growing collection.

Thank the Lord for a blessed day!

Edit: Due to being a professional page and not wanting to cause unnecessary drama, I have decided to not name the title of this fun little hunt I decided to share.

Try to let this dog out to run around and just enjoy himself while I do chores around the house but he would rather wait in the dog box and bark at me to go hunt. Good problem to have I reckon 🤷‍♂️

My youngest son said he wanted to dispatch his first hog tonight so after grinding it out, the dogs delivered and found a good one. In a world pushing soft feminine boys incapable of being men, here’s our 6 year old walking into the fire with a knife and a dog. Praise the Lord for giving us the opportunity to help others and make everlasting memories along the way. Daniel 3:25 He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.

Got a little wet on this one. Took one step in and went straight up to my knee and stuck. Was able to get a dogo by the tail for leverage to get the hog to me and pull my leg out of the mud finally. Good work by all the dogs and thanks to my wife for the texcellent camera work.

Alexis said “dad it’s reeeeeeally nice outside right now” I said “yeah perfect for runnin dogs huh?” So had us a little daddy daughter hunt and got us a pretty spotted hog in some nasty vine. Was a great night to run the dogs. Praise the Lord for the rain. It didn’t get hardly much but a few drops at our place but we are incredibly thankful that it got some of our neighbors and surrounding places!

Another one down. Hammer bayed him up solid after a 800 yard run then Duende and Frio locked him down. Plott and dogos getting it done.

To truly and fully enjoy this short video, you must turn the volume all the way up and listen to the echoes of the hog as him and Duende go flying off a 10 foot ledge together into the water. It’s pretty hilarious. Thankfully I was able to slide and scramble down and get a hold of Duende by the tail and pull him to shore but the hog wasn’t so fortunate and is at the bottom of the creek feeding the catfish. Could have been much worse but crisis was averted.

I never shoot hogs and never have and never will when running dogs and that’s my style so wasn’t shooting this one. If a hog gets away from my dogs for any reason then that hog gets to live and fight another day and that’s fair.

My motto is “If I need a gun, then I need better dogs.”

Got a little wet on this one. Took one step in and was stuck solid up to my knee so thankfully the dogs were on their A-game and kept me from getting clobbered although they were whipped from swimming on top of this hog across the entire pond after a good 500 yard chase. Also it was amateur hour, and I dropped my knife on the bank so once I got a hold of a dog and the hog I had to reach to get that too! Good times!

My daughter wanted to get in on the action so let her dispatch this hog that was locked down courtesy of Hammer, Duende, and Frio. Might need a new knife 🥴 but regardless we got er done. Shoutout to my wonderful wife for getting the footage for us!

One night we are catching fish on the jetty, we wake up, get on a pirate ship in Port A, have some lunch with the great grandparents, then drive 4 hours back home and the weather is just too good to not run dogs. So we head out with Hammer, Duende, and Frio and catch a solid boar and 2 others to make it 3 for the night just before midnight.

Ryder was grinning from ear to ear and could hardly contain himself when he saw he made the front cover of Tuskers with his favorite dog Duende. Thanks to Ed Barnes for allowing me to write multiple articles for this magazine about my passion for hog dogs and for giving my son a memory he will cherish about his love for running dogs. Like father like son.
