Bryant I think what you are saying is correct.I don't think a dog being open is that big of deal as long as the dog is going to be there to the end. Like I have said in the past whats any louder than a full blown bay so why do you catch hogs after that. I think most young dogs that are hunted behind your older dogs go to the bay most of the time until you allow them to be hunted by them self and trail and find there own.So if a dog is opening he pulls the young dogs in the race instead of leaving them is what we have noticed.My main strike dogs if I put them down to cast them if the pups take a crap he will never see them and if he trys to trail them he whines up getting lost and 1/2 mile later he's throwed out of the race before it even gets started.My open dogs have not made my silent dogs open. I have personally started 14 pups this year and got 6 that are 5 to 7 monthes of Scotts so that will be 20 over half of them are able to start there own hog or cow and will go. I think the same about handling if anybody has gotten a puppy from me they are not that friendly they will load in a trailer and come when you call to feed and they will hunt open or silent I'm raising hog dog prospects not excuses or house pets.Rowdy and Bryant don't weaken.
