first my opinion on crossing different type dogs with different type characteristics ....its hard hard to get a consistant offspring .... if you breed a pure hound to a pure cur for instance more than likely the pups will lean to one side or the other and if you get the inbetween your trying to get what you gonna breed it too too make it consitant ..... I feel it can be done but will take more time and money than most will spend .... I bred a pure mountain cur I owned to a brindle ladner Catahoula crossed female and that is where blackie came from .....he come out black with brindle trim unlike his siblings witch were cat colored and red ...... blackie as a throw back from here I can only guess i'd say a mountain cur line ....he was an exceptional dog and he liked hogs more than anything else although back in those days I used him for cattle too and he'd tree a coon or two ....... but later in year he's where my thinking about dogs having multiple offspring in a litter and a female being able to have pups from different males in a single litter with only the mother being the common parent lends to throwbacks ( BLACKIE ) so with that I set out to develope a line of similar dogs with common characteristics and eliminate throwbacks if possible ...... i'm perty close to where I want mine they perty much all look the same witch that's a form of consistency ..... the rest is natural characteristics to hunt and like pigs ..... I perty much pick a real good male of my stock now and try and clone him through breedings .....
