7M, U bring up a good point. If one of the dogs you are breeding has a weak point, it is always good to make sure to compensate by having the other dog strong in that department.
I like a smart dog too, but I dont know how smart these hogdogs are by getting in thickets with these boars.
Jon, I also look at the size. I like a medium size dog but I have seen good hogdogs in all sizes.
I forgot to add size. I have 3 males and 1 is a show dog that i have for sale on here that would make anyone a coon dog who put it to him. He has good qualitys as i stated about my other males. But he is just to big long legged over breed standards. My gyp(treeing walker hog dog) has the smarts. She has all the quality's that you need. My young male wouldnt even fool with her and the guy that has the male dog i have been wanting to breed to for awhile texted me and said that he would breed for a puppy so she has a date with a dog just like her except the rat attack tree.
