Title: Re: Lacy x Hound Post by: TColt on August 14, 2011, 04:06:56 pm I think that would be nice if you could ever get them to come in. Every lacy I have seen has unbelievable heat tollerance and stamina, add that to a hounds range and you might get yourself into more binds than good hunts lol. Sounds like it would be a good south texas dog to me.
Title: Re: Lacy x Hound Post by: ole shep on August 14, 2011, 08:06:38 pm I got the walker gyp and lacy male . But Tcolt is probably right that's almost to much brains,bottom and hunt to put in one dog. Trash school would be intense. Hunting spots would have to be large. If I ever get off this Plott thing. I may try it.

Title: Re: Lacy x Hound Post by: halfbreed on August 15, 2011, 08:33:34 pm every one keeps talkin bout how you have to have all this country to run hounds and crosses my cross dogs work medium range just like my cur dogs and when i was coon huntin my treeing walkers hunted medium distance and cheked back in also . now i do start em with woods work at an early age but no diff. than my cats.
Title: Re: Lacy x Hound Post by: TColt on August 16, 2011, 09:15:46 am Im not saying you must have alot of land, it just helps. It also depends in the hounds you run but there is no doubting that the average hound is gonna have a better nose and go out further than the average cur. I feel like they will run a colder trail alot longer also, from the ones I have seen.
The reason I say it would be a good south texas dog is because of the heat and dry weather. Dogs with better heat tolerance and a colder nose would do better in this type of situation. The large pieces of land is just a bonus. I have large pieces of property here in north texas also. |
