My Dot female was the best dog I ever hunted with. She went to Punch three times and Jordans Henry once. Punch and Henry were littermates and grandsons of Big Boy and Blondie. She is 14 and the closest to the Big Boy Blondie cross left alive. Bear and Sarah, the dogs we lost to alligators this year were full brother and sister to her, 5 years younger. She was small and heavy haired, a tireless hunter, super cold nose, endless bottom and make hogs do her will. I have had her stay on a hog all day and all night across a flooded river in the middle of January. A guy from La. brought some good Plott hounds over to hunt one time and we went to a cutover milo field. I gave him first shot and the hounds could smell hogs, but couldn't open on it or line it out. I turned Dot loose and she left running on the track like she was looking at the hog and bayed 5 or 6 hundred yards out in a matter of minutes. I've seen her bay sounders and swing out in the woods and put more hogs in the group. I've seen sounders break and she stop the whole bunch several times. She would roll out as soon as the catch dog was turned loose and bay hogs 'till you caught her. IT didn't get too hot, too cold, too wet or anything else for her. Big Ben got to see her nose a couple of years ago. Art Lee, who won the Cur world hunt a few years ago,said she was the best dog he had ever seen.

The older I get, the better I was.
If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principle difference between a dog and a man.
