bobcat hunting with dog

That's pretty neat just going out hunting with your dogs. My grandfather had "hunting dogs" back in the 50's. He ran Catahoulas back then. The reason I know he had Catahoulas is because my properly British Nana could not have come up with that word on her own.

Anyway, you could still run deer in Texas back then and there weren't very many hogs. His dogs would run whatever they tracked - cats, coons, deer, nutria, and assorted furries. I wish I had sense enough to want to run dogs while he was alive. I don't remember any Catahoulas, but I do remember his YBMC "Granger". By the time I had any recollection of Granger he wasn't part of a pack, just a single hunting dog.

The closest thing I have to a hunting dog that isn't just a hog dog is my greyhound. I use her on jackrabbits, and she will catch a coon if he can't tree before she sees him. Do your hounds trail everything open, or do they only bay once they are treed?
