I have a big hunting walker coondog that is silent on the ground and an every breath tree dog. He is out of a gyp that was the same way. A lot of serious competition coonhunters like a silent dog that can get off by it's self and get treed with a coon. I have thought about breeding this walker male to a big hunting cur female, i think it will work very well.
I just bought a 6 month old male pup out of a silent walker gyp that is a PKC silver ch and a field trial english pointer. Both of the dogs this pup is out of are big hard hunting dogs, time will tell if this pup will work out. I showed him a hog this weekend and he bayed him with a big bawl mouth. If he will stay silent on track and have the hunt, he will be the right kind.
Sounds to me like he will be a trail blazer...
