I hadn't even thought of that, but yes...my male I intend to breed will actually be a hybrid vigor outcross to the linebred gyp.  I also own the sister to this gyp I intend to breed and she is a saddleback.  Although she's pretty good, she isn't quite the dog and lacks a little of the confidence that her sister has.

My hunting partner has been breeding these curs for quite sometime.  Unfortunately, all the older dogs have been killed or have died and all he has left is basically a yard full of brothers and sisters.  He had an accidental breeding a while back of two littermates.  While these are inbred (as opposed to linebred) dogs he kept them all, and all are showing extreme promise.  They're about seven months old, and are hunting machines.  He recognizes that inbreeding can produce throwbacks from MANY generations past and doesn't intend to breed any of them.
