I am currently feedin pups out of the same dogs ive had for a few years, sadly they are all gone. The best dog i ever owned "smoke" died while hunting back in february at 13yrs old, his littermate sister was shot by some asshat last month when she got loose from the house. My 2 oldest dogs are both 2.5yr olds out of smoke.
This is slick, he is my pride and joy dog wise, he is exactly what I wanted to produce when I initially bred his daddy, he is a mirror image of his dad from his looks to his huntin style. He is independent in the woods and doesnt mind goin deep to find one, he hits the ground running and so far has been a hard hunting dog. He has a bright future in my yard.
This is skeeter, slicks littermate brother, he is bigger, taller and leaner than his brother and has also been a good young dog but he doesnt have quite as much woods sense as his brother. He is rank, he has on more than one occasion caught a hog that I would have preferred to use a bulldog on but surprisingly enough he doesnt curr out, if he initially catches it he stays hung. He has the sense to sit back and bay a hog the majority of the time but gets a little ignorant here and there and has payed for it more than once but it hasnt slowed him down much. I think with more woods experience he will turn out pretty solid.
This next gyp hasnt been to the woods yet, she just turned a year old, i usually start them earlier but due to my work schedule this year i did not have much time, she will get ample opportunities this spring. She is closely related to slick and skeeter, her daddy is smokes nephew owned by the man that i got my original dogs out of this line from. She has a great demeanor and wants to please, it wont take much to get her going, she gets down on our penned hog and bays head to head. She is built perfect in my eyes, we will see
This is my bulldog, love this little gyp. Great manners and smart
And last but not least, these are 2016s prospects, both males are out of smokes sister and a brindle dog i used to own named camo, the blood is there, we will find out this spring if its mixed right or not
