Buying strike dogs????????????????

Chris, Bryant, Richard, and a bunch more have given you some good advice.
Don't buy dogs out of the want ads if you don't know the people.
Hunt behind the dog and if you like it buy with the agreement that if doesn't work can bring it back. No trail just a mans word that if in a period of time doesn't work for you, you can bring back and get your money.

I can never get a dog fnished any more because some one is waiting to buy a good started dog that they have seem hunt.

Have some old ones but they aren't for sale.

Like Chris said the cheapest thing, instead of buying pups, is to buy a GOOD started dog, you have seen hunt, give it some time to get use to you and your pack of dogs and have a little patiances and watch it work out.

Also style of hunting makes a differents, walk, 4-wheeler, rodeing, and casting.
