I've hooked four BIG dogs. Got two to the yak and cut one leader and cut the others hook with dykes. Lost one on a crab trap and cut the last one off before it could take out 5 other yaks soaking squid on droppers(really the first I ever hooked). Those were all on circle hooks trolling for T's. Never hooked one on smaller J hooks. Not even a stinger rig.
They bark a lot when you get them to the yak, but are pretty calm for the most part.
