These are what get me out of bed in the morning even when I don't want to.
LOL Asher. My dogs and horses make up the base of my life so I have TONS of pictures around. I can't show you what I consider to be my best shots of my dogs because I hunt with them, and they have a very high potential to offend some. But yes, you will frequently be seeing pictures of them as they are my favorite subjects.
I do deer hunt, however, I use my dogs to hunt wild pigs. It's known as Hog Dogging. Before you ask, the sh*t you see on TV is exactly that.. sh*t... Very little about those shows are real and show anything close to what I do.
As far as pictures, well it's a well known fact that you don't show them in public for fear of ridicule so that's not something that you have to worry about.
I know I want to say something..
Yes. A very warm welcome to OPF Meagan.
Best.
......... however, I use my dogs to hunt wild pigs.
Hi Meagan,
Welcome to OPF.
I was raised on a farm. I used to shoot game birds and my dog used to chase and catch hares and rabbits, so I have no problems with you hunting wild pigs.
However, I find it difficult to describe the image you posted as 'hunting', since it appears from the wire fence that the pig is in an enclosed area.
Even so, I'm not upset by the image as some more sensitive people might be. You say it's a competition, so maybe you could explain the rules?

Hunting with dogs, well there is WAY to much to try and explain but it is by far the #1 best was to remove wild hogs.
Hi Meagan,
Thanks for the explanation. Interesting about the 'nipping', because in sheep dog trials a dog is penalised if it 'grips'. Of course in real life this is how a dog controls an obstinate sheep.
