Circle T I agree with you on the type of dog you like what you are willing to or not willing to sacrifice. I have done the same thing as you in breeding myself into a corner. In my part of the world it is proving that I need 3 major traits to have the most productive dogs. Of course the hunt and bottom, the track speed, and the bite too. I don't want running catch dogs or stupid rough but sure enough get a mouth full an ol' hogs pride and joy and hang on till it faces up. We have a lot of thickets around here that can be pretty tough traveling for a dog which we all know can allow a hog to catch it's wind. The other problem is when you get it stopped, it has to stay stopped because they will try and brush you off on a fresh set of hogs that a lot of times may not be but 8-900 yards away. We have a lot of hogs here then all of a sudden they seem to vanish and it might take half the day to find something. Do you find that your dogs that have the bite are of the same crosses or do you just get a few here and there from your line in general? Been considering the running dog cross myself is the reason for all the questions. Mike I would love to hear your thoughts too.
