On the reverse aspect of what this topic is based around. I have observed and owned several complete cow dog failures.  Meaning wont bay cows if their life depended on it with 0 interest. Cross them over and were a complete no hesitation fireball with a deep burning drive to bay,hunt,and work hogs that appeared to be completely of natural talent. 

This is the explanation I guess I am trying to convey on either direction you are coming from. 

I have personally never had a hesitation in trialing a what's described as a cowdog cull until he has been scrubbed as a hogdog cull by my own hand. Most of mine naturally work both and have to be broken off one unless you desire both talents.  But again I have heavy roots originally of cowdog stock. 

Interesting views from all so far.
