EAST TEXAS HOG DOGGERS FORUM

I was jus wanting some fellow hunters opinion on a cross i been thinking about. I thought about crossing a blackmouth with a catahoula an then crossing a red tick with a bloodhound an then crossing the pups. That would give me a 1/4 blackmouth 1/4 catahoula 1/4 red tick an a 1/4 bloodhound. Its just a thought an would like to get some opinions on whether anyone thinks it could turn out good or if anyone thinks its a waste of time. thanks

I don't care for the blood hound part. I think it could take speed away from the dog.

x2  i aint no expert, but if its nose you are looking for 1/2 cur 1/2 hound should be plenty. JMO

To quote a statement from another board member, "Breeding dogs aint like mixing paint".

How can anyone give you an opinion with these crosses if you dont tell us what you are trying to achieve with them?

In other words, what do you want in a hog dog?  ??? If you dont know what you are trying to achieve to begin with then yes, its a complete waist of time.

Try puting bird dog instead of bloodhound would work better or just bird dog  catahoula  bird dog and blackmouth works real good

Get the right Black mouth dogs and you wont need anything else......... JMO
good luck either way

i second that all ya need is a real bmc they do it all

There are good traits in each one of the 4 breeds but i would be more concerned with the dogs I was breeding not the breed it self.....

To me it sounds like raising and working +/- 30 pups to (maybe) find what your looking for.

There is good and bad in any breed just need to get with good people that breed good proven dogs that  you can trust i my self hunt blackmouths but i do have other dogs to that i hunt plott curs but best thing to do is try and get pups out of proven stock hope this help a little
