Just curious. Are your Dales hog dogs or are they small game dogs? I have had a couple of guys ask me about Airedales for pheasant after they hunted with my Star. She will be 2 years old on Christmas Eve and is a crackerjack flushing dog. She also trees squirrels. I'll pass your post on to these guys and let them decide.

Airedales hunt for feather or fur!
