Breeding toward the cur lines down here.  The great grand dam was old hoosier bred and the great sire was Laker bred. Took the dam of this cross (lulu ) and bred to a Gary Sparks jug bred dog (Rub).  Took this gyp (Bubby) and bred her to a Meeks bred male (Ramrod) that had the same dam (lulu) as Bubby, but a different sire. This gave me what I have today. I made a mother/ son cross to get Dot the female I kept and a litter mate to two oof the pups in Utah, The other 3 are out of a cross of my stuff (Sally) with Michael Knights old Jack dog. I mainly did the mother / son cross to double up on Bubby's cur traits since Jack has a lot of the same traits it only made since to do so.  I say meeks bred and jug bred and lakers bred, but you got to look at the pedigree. Now they only have one shot of jug in them (Bubby and Ramrod) in them each, but around 9 shots of Double Tug. If you go further than that then you see a lot of Matt Dillon and hoosier Captain and older bred dogs. Most all which go back to the 60's  and to what the dogs my dad owned. The problem is we've lost a lot of the hair and I'm afraid we're loosing a lot of the old style cur traits'.  Ricky love may be the only one out there getting a lot of hair in his line.  The litters average medium hair to a few every now and then long haired dogs. Melsons Billy dog was a good long haired leopard but he's dead now.  I've tried several crosses now trying to get the longer hair, but end up with short to medium hair. Nothing consistent in the long hair. I know it's  nothing but  a visual thing, but its a big thing to me.  Got to get the consistent long haired litter with all the leopard cur traits.... LOL I'm just hung up on the old suff...
