EAST TEXAS HOG DOGGERS FORUM

Took my dog to my buddies house to start workin him in the pen. Turned him loose in the pen n he bayed the piss out of that hog but he keep actin like he wanted to catch it so I got in the pen with him n he caught right away. Then me n my buddy n cousin hobbled the hog n turned it loose. We went n got my buddies 1/2 redbone n 1/2plott gyp n then turned them loose to c if they could find the hog. They went out about 60 or 70 yards out n had the hog bayed up n as soon as we got there the dogs caught. Had a good day workin the dogs n we have some high hopes for these dogs. Hope they turn out for us. Thanks for lookn.

Sounds like you got some good crosses there, hope they turn out for ya.

Yea there some pretty good dogs from what we've seen so far. My buddies gyp is only 6 months old n she's comin along pretty good n my plott/bmc is rough as cobb n he's findn some hogs as well. Thanks n yea we hope they do turn out for us 2.

Sounds to me like those pups are making some real hog dogs... 8)

Yea their comin along pretty good n we expected them to make some real good hog dog. We'll just have to wait n see though.

i just bought a 4 month old 1/2 plott 1/2 bmc from a guy in SW Ark. that im excited about. shes baying tight in the pen already. likes the hog to look her in the eye. if he turns she puts teeth on him. none of my other  dogs showed this much interest at such a young age.

Good deal.....I hope they stay true for you boys and make jam up dogs. Been doing this for a long time and I don't think I've ever seen a 'sorry' half Plott dog.....granted some are better than others, but a half Plott dog has the deck stacked in his favor right off the bat in my opinion.

Yea I like them ol plott crosses. My dog was the same way ur gyp is catch n tie but now he's gottin rougher as he's gettin older. When he's was around 6 months old he would just sit back n bay the pissout of them hogs. Now he's at a year old n is rough as a cobb I can put him in a pen with any hog n he'll bay it but if I get n the pen with him he'll try to catch which I don't mind him being rough I just don't want him to get too rough.

i like my dogs rough. like em to  shut one down and catch when the bulldog gets there.

Yea he'll shut down a hog n I like it when he gets rough with em. He'll catch with another dog n he's griity when it comes to small hogs but yea I like em to be rough. Hope ur gyp turns out for ya catch n tie.

My FBMC is comin in heat, and i was kickin around the idea of breeding her to a plott, and yall are about to talk me into it 8)

Plott or mtn cur as long as it is of super high quality. :)

I'd breed her to a plott if I was you but that's JMO. Just make sure you breed her to a plott that has all the qualities in like and want in a dog.

if i keep her, and dont breed her back to a BMC, i will breed her to a plott that my buddy has, fast, and gritty, maybe a little too gritty.  i have two from the same line that i really like.  fixin to breed my plott as soon as she comes in, to the same male.

Yea my plott/bmc male is the same way he's fast n loves to get rough n man he hates a hog. Let me know when you get some pups out of ur plott gyp.

When i first started hunting i got 4 bmc/plott crosses from a guy in arkansas. They were a very ,very rough group of dogs . We  didnt have a problem finding and shutting a hog down.

sure thing, she should be comin in pretty soon,  i got three in right now and its like dominos, the female is not real catchy but bays tight and will pull hair, but she has no quit in her,  the male is kinda young but started real early, good trail dog, and is rough as a cob, plus i know what he is out of.

Sounds like u got some good dogs there. Yea I just got my 1/2plott n 1/2bmc male but I want to get me a full blooded plott male. Yea just let me know when ur gyp has the pups. Where you located?

You know that you want a half Plott Tom,.....so go ahead.....I dare you! lol

LOL :D :D, yes i would very much like a couple, BUT........ That female didnt work out, :-\ so i called the guy i got her from and told him the situation, and so we worked out a deal, and i am takin the female back and getting  6 month old male, and two 12 week old female FBMC's, so it WILL eventually happin ;)

Well good luck with the new BMC dogs.......it's finally getting a little cooler here, we went on Monday morn. and caught 4,.....2 small pigs and 2 about 60-70 lbs. These were the meanest pigs I've ever run across they would bite you and chew on you if given half a chance.
