Page "Hog-dog rodeo" Paragraph 2

These main bayings events are sometimes augmented with catch competitions, where " catch dogs " bite and hold the hogs ' ears to maintain control, and then a human lifts the pig by rear legs and turns onto a side and hog-ties the pig.

The event is timed, and the quickest time wins.

The dogs are outfitted with kevlar chest and neck armor, and serious injury to either animal is rare.
