I don't know of any others from the line named Mac...just the pup I gave Gentry.  None of the dogs off the bro/sis accidental cross were ever bred....unless Catch has been bred.  I believe Krystal had given him to the Holubs.

As far as starting late, that's just a product of the line of dogs.  Some of them had a little softer mouth than what I liked also.  Zeus (not saying the best) but was the HARDEST catching of all the ones I ever hunted around.  Krystal and I have had discussions and have an opinion on why that was so, and believe more of a product on how he was hunted the first year or two of his life than his actual breeding.  I've never owned even since a catchdog with a harder grip.  Zeus was also very hard headed and REALLY liked to hunt.  If a bay broke, he was HELL to get back.

Ryan...if I were looking for an outcross I would try to find the best performance bred full AB you could find.  I personally wouldn't breed ANY more Dogo in...but that's just me.
