silverton  the  dogs  you  describe  being  part  hound  is  not   your  typical  cowdogs  most people  raise ......  you  know  i  used  to  ride  some  with a  friedn  of  mine ...and  it  was a  fence  buster  here  and  there  he  was  called  to  catch ......i  told  him if i was  you  i'd  have  me a  plott that  woul d track  a   cold  cow  trail  put him  on the  track  and  listen  til  he  gets  it  worke d up  then  send  the  curdogs .....we  was  always  getting  on  someone  elses  cattle  with the  cur's ..... there's  no  doubt  its  hard  to  get  anything  with  more  stick  than a  hound  or  hound  cross  ........ also  i like  the hardness  of  some  of  the  birddog  breeds ....... mountain  curs  have  hound  type  traits  in  some  of  the  old  stocks  that  why  i like  em .......also  handle  here  hoghunting  don't  mean  much  to  us ....we  gonna  walk  up  and  put a bulldog  on thehog  most  of  the time  and  catch  the  dog  off  .......another  thing myself  i like  handle  to  come  last  as  i  am  hunting the  dog .... to  much handle  on the  start hinder's a  dog  you need  to  really get  out  and  go ....... mind  you  we  drop hunt  off  4  wheelers  or trucks ... so the  dogs have  to leave  hunt and  come  back  to  us  if  they  don't  bay ...... my  training  is   different than most  i  have a  300  acre  hog  pasture  to  train in  so  not  being able  to catch  one  on the start  really  doesn't  bother  me  .....they get hungry a nd  realize  to load  at the  gate hahahaha .....
