my buddys gyp, straight mtn cur. she will not stop hunting rain or shine, heat or cold. when all the other dogs are at your feet shes still hunting. extremely smart and great handle. Ive seen her wind hogs in their bed from a half mile( its mountainous here so the wind funnels) She roads, strikes off the quad, will jump out of a moving vehicle on the hwy if she smells a hog, consistently produces hogs when other dogs dont.
