Hello, My name is Josh Pape.  I picked up the nickname Deuce while in the Marines and it has stuck ever since.  I am a combat veteran of the Iraq war and the owner of PIG OUT.  I was born and raised in the Bay Area and I have always had a love for wildlife and the outdoors.  Shortly after returning home from active duty, I got my dog Blitz. Blitz was a hunting dog breed known as a German Jagdterrier. He was a great dog and with him I got into hunting and conservation. I called him my right hand dog... He went everywhere with me. I loved that dog!

One day I was out on a walk with Blitz in a local off leash park when he suddenly ran into the treeline.  I heard him being attacked and did my best to find him.  Suddenly things went quiet.  I looked for hours and could not find him.  The next day, I posted missing dog signs everywhere and noticed at the entrance to the park were several other postings of missing dogs.  A few days later while searching again, I noticed two large coyotes in the park.  Within the coming weeks more missing dog signs and I also noticed coyote traps placed in the park to catch the dog eating coyotes.

Several years have passed and I still miss my buddy Blitz.  He was a one of a kind dog.  I have also had other dogs badly injured by coyotes since then while at parks within city limits.  Luckily, they have lived through their encounters.  I decided to start PIG OUT, in Blitz' memory, as a way to help control overpopulated predators and slow the massive spread of the invasive feral pigs.  My hope is that in doing so, I can do my part to keep predator populations at a healthy level and stop feral pigs from destroying farm land and spreading disease. 

I am a California state licensed Wildlife Control Operator and will provide you with humane and professional service specific to your expectations and needs.
