Barlow's an interesting guy and I miss having him around, although we still correspond from time to time.
I guarantee, you'll not find someone who has traveled the world and studied (by seeing...not by reading) dogs more than he has. He isn't scared to hear about someone hunting and raising a good line of dogs and just pick up and move there for a while to see and get to know them. Heck, that's how we all met him in the first place.
Bryant, did he ever tell y'all his stories on bear hunting in West Va. I enjoyed the site he used too have. I can tell you one thing, nobody has researched Plotts any harder then he has & if he took another interest in a breed of dogs, he left no stone unturned trying to find out how they were bred or their origins.
