My problem with that is that every dog a hunter owns should independent enough to seek, run, and catch its own game with no help needed. Thats all. If you want to go hunt with that walker please let me know when you are
Let me ask you this, make sure I got what you are saying correct first, If you turn 3 dogs out all 3 better be on their own hog? You said catch too? So are you using one-out hounds? Are you lead in bulldogs, or RCDS?
Another Blanket Statement “EVERY DOG A Hunter Owns Should BE” Who are you to tell everybody on here what kind of dog they should have or own or feed? That’s just not right to think you are better or above anybody. I know a lot of people that all hunt different dogs types, styles, and we are still friends or atleast respect each other, I don’t care if they catch more hogs then I do (most time they don’t, lol).
You can’t decide whats best for me or my friends to hunt with or what will catch more hogs where I am, no more than I can for you, This is a discussion forum to talk with others, Most people get along and enjoy this site for that reason
You go back and read each and everyone of my posts, I never edited any of them, and I never challenged you to a duel of dogs, however there were 4 offers to go see this dog hunt that you so roosterilly speak of, none from me, now you want to prove a point great we can talk like adults should, would you like me to come see this dog and change my mind, then invite and we will debate- don’t go off like someone ready to drop his pants with a measuring stick.
That one walker dog probablyy is an exceptional dog , since you are willing to make such a fuss about him, I might like to see him but I don't like to run my dogs with open dogs.
Just try to relax a little bit this is ETHD Forum, where everybody needs to get along
The reason for my post is that I do not understand your logic thats all. If you want to feed 1000 poodles I could care less however why on earth would someone want to feed a dog that is a "me too" dog? You seem to be upset because I disagree. I never said that everytime you turn loose each dog should be on a hog....I do not have the luxury to have that many hogs but what I did say is that if a dog is working a track he should not go to the first dog that barks. That dog should have the independence and the confidence to start and finish his own track and in your scenario the fault in my humble opinion lies with the dog that quits his track and goes to a dog that "yips" as you put it.
Where do you get the idea that I think I am better than anyone? Did I write that anywhere? If anything I admit I do not understand your so called "dog wisdom" and the things you write of have not been my experiences. Obviously you get upset with anyone that disagrees with you-I think you are the one with the elitist attitude.
Yes the walker that I speak of is an exceptional dog and anyone that want to go hunt with him and bring their best dog of any kind let me know and I will arrange a hunt with his owner.
