Davis, RB posted a good link. I have watched the little Jags bay and catch. If this is your sole dog you may want one of the larger breeds, ie, Blue tick, Red bone, ect... If you want a good all around breed for hogs, a black mouth cur is hard to beat. If you get a good one it will bay and catch if need be.
If your heart is set on the Jag, there is no better hunting dog his size for hogs. They are smart , quick and pugnacious. They can find, will bay and most will try to catch. They are too short of leg to run with a hog and if they go to catch, you find them in the next county still hanging on to the hog, if you find the hog. I saw two of them try to catch a boar once, a bulldog had to be let loose to catch the hog because he was in full stride with the Jags still hanging on.
If you think this dog will be a pet while not hunting, you will regret that decision. He will attack you, your family and anything else that moves. Jags are a pure hunting dog and if he does not have that attitude, I would not pay to feed him. They are best thought of as a big dog in a small package that is a cross between a chain saw and and a 14ft crocodile.
