Bear dogs sound tough.
You don’t think dogs that tackle bears are tough?
I have a dog that used to fight bulls and occasionally baited bears. But that was then, Victorian England, while these dogs look like the real deal today.
OK, they use bulldogs now against feral hogs, so that’s pretty cool. Did we ever resolve the ‘Brown bear fights a Giant Feral Hog’ dispute?
We don't have bear dogs around my parts, but there are a lot of pig dogs, and they are very rugged. Sometimes the owners give them little body armor to protect against the tusks, but they still get cut up real good.
Owners commonly sew them up in the field. They use suture products made for horses, with the little curved needle already affixed. I thought those were a good idea so I bought some for myself and family for post-SHTF.
