curious to see whos breeding catahoulas that can do it all. and by that i mean, find thier own hog and catch it with out a catch dog? but still has enough sense to back up on really rough hogs. gritty cats with brains and drive.
whos breeding them and what bloodlines are best for this style of hunting?
thankyou!

Good question and interesting reading.
Here in Australia we were lucky enough to have a pair of Camp a While dogs imported a few years back to show us what a catahoula should be.
The dogs here before could find and stop but the Camp a While bred dogs do it better and some places here there's that many pigs it doesn't matter what dog you have as you can drive up to the pigs and drop the dogs on them but other places it's harder and the better dogs shine.
Seems to be the norm to expect the catahoula to find and stop till you arrive isn't it?
What I'd like to know is which are longer range dogs/hunting lines as my gyp will go 3km on a fresh scent and hold a boar bailed till the other dogs and I arrive, she's a special dog though and I'm lucky to be owned by her.
Hopefully her pups will be as good.
Cheers
