It's never more than I want to know! Us newbies can't learn if people like you aren't willing to share, so thank you. I like bird hunting a lot, but also am crazy about the handful of times I've been pig hunting over the past decade or so. I'm thinking of a pointer crossed to a greyhound for birds, pigs, and some faster things. I know when you start mixing things up hoping for the best of both worlds it rarely works out that way, but it's certainly been on my mind for awhile.
That's awesome you've been able to pull off such great blood. Sounds like a nice line you're building!
what's in the bird dog crosses and what are you using them for?
They’re hog dogs too. They are mostly birddog with a touch of bulldog, hound, and bmc. And even a leopard dog in there a little ways back.
Basically you know how anywhere you go there are “local legends”? The dogs that when you mention their name, anyone from that area who has been hunting for a while will immediately know? Over the years I’ve either gotten pups directly off of or bred my females to 5 different “local legends”. I say local but they spread out all across Ga. Two of those are straight birddog which is why mine are more birddog than anything.
So I’ve bred best to best and crossed them to point that I now have two litters that can all be traced back to the 5 dogs mentioned above. From here I plan on tightening up the line with what I got.
Probably more than you wanted to know but you got it lol
