this is exactly what i know to be true everyone has their likes and dislikes and ill bet anything I could take a dog that comes from a line that is rough and short range and make them long range and loose baying. everyones dogs will work the way you train them to work and will follow the way your pack works!
Not saying it can't be done from time to time, But I would love to see someone do it consistently. I've seen sorry dogs come out of awesome lines and I've seen freaks of nature " awesome dogs " come out of junk but not very often. To say you can take any old dog out of any old line and train them to do exactly what you want them to do is hard to believe. I don't know you so I'm not saying you can't but I would like to see you do it. I do believe that proper training is a big help but the blood has got to be there first. It's hard to make a line of dogs that have been bred a certain way for generations hunt different without making an outcross for that trait.
