I have a Hemphill / wilder bred , male , I've been told in the day he was called a battle type cross , he's a old family red , ( black nose dog ) , suppose ably  bred the best of the best for hybrid vigor , he's a 70 lb dog , not dog aggressive , very smart , he can catch a train if it looks like a hog , broke off cows  ect. , he's a special dog , he's game bred but had no idea until after I had him a few years and realized how special he was and started researching his pedigree , I purchased a  chinaman , frisco , pure blood female to breed him to , and she was hot when I got her , I've calmed her down a lot ,  but this type of dog is a lot of work to socialize and still haft to be on gaurd at all times watching your dogs body language out and about , I luv this type of dog for hunting , my male is a special animal , the watered down statement  is what made me start my research on my own dog , it's good to learn and listen to multiple opinions , there is some people on here that really know these types of dogs , and if you don't piss them off LOL they will teach you something in the writings , I'm still looking for a ADBA reg outcross to breed my male to , I'd like a red pup from the litter
