number 2 at 4k buy half a dozen good dogs...4 good ones will beat 1 great one anyday
four grand wont buy half a dozen good dogs of what i like, thats why the guy who inquired about the dog needs to go see with his own eyes because everyones definition of a good dog is not the same. if it was me and i was interested in the dog i would go get the dog on a little trial at the guys house and give him the cash money when we loaded the dog up. i would take her to a place that everyone hated to hunt because of running hogs and thickets. if a dog will stay in a bad thicket for hours they will stay in the open woods too. if she bayed i wouldnt run in to her id let her bay awhile maybe 2 hours just to make sure she will stay bayed. i seen the ad on the dog and if i wasnt expecting a kid in the next month id probably call the fellow a three year old dog is just gettting in their prime and if nothing happens will have a good many more years to be going to the woods. good luck on the dog.
