The youngest i took out to hunt a hog was 14 months old. Took another one out at 15 months and another at 16 months. They all won easily. There are some who are physically and mentally ready at a young age. This one here been schooled ever since she was 6 months old. Physically she is ready cause shes strong, good mouth, good wrestler, and her body is tough like a brick. But mentally she is not ready, she doesn't know how to hate other dogs with a passion yet.
11 month old right now
Her half brother though is 13 month old and he's been schooled and killed his litter mate brother at 6 month old is fully ready and on the campaign trail
