There's not a thing wrong with it as long as your breeding a better hogdog and halfway know what your doing and cull when necessary. I guess what's odd to me is that most of the traits that people look into achieving can be achieved through good bred curs or hounds with the exception of a few traits. To answer the question I like a tight gutted deep chested, medium boned, athletic frame, that can take a 5-6 hour track free casted, run the track with their heads up, have good track speed, run to catch/stop mentality, knows how to approach a hog that has stopped to bay, have good bay power that knows how to bay a hog, and has an excellent handle kinda dog. Does such a dog exist? Yes I've seen and hunted with them. Do I or have I ever owned one ? No, but it's my goal and what I'm breeding for. I want a few dogs to take much older tracks but far as my pack in general, I don't need a pack full of grub it out cold trailers. I would prefer a dog to be silent until jumped and give some mouth, not a lot after the hog is running good.
