I didn't make a jab at your post either, just replying to the statement you made. That would be like me saying a good weenie dog can do anything a plott hound can do... there's no comparison between the two.
Some of y'all boys need to quit being so damn sensitive.

I have seen plenty of sorry cur dogs that will not take a track on their own...but you put a good dog out with that dog that won't take a track and now that no good dog becomes a good me too dog and the inexperienced will think he is a good dog...and with blood trailing and some training he will make a deer tracking dog...
Now train that good hunting dog that will stick with a track to track deer and then you will probably see a big difference in ability between those 2 dogs...there is no doubt which one of those 2 dogs I would invest my time training...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
A hunting dog is born not made...

I have seen good labs that could blood trail with the best of them. Blood trailing is one of those things that lots of breeds fit the bill and can do the job well. Never seen a lab that could stay with a runner 20 miles. Never seen a cur that could swim a mile in rough seas either while carrying a duck in his mouth. Different breeds bred for different jobs that have a job or 2 in common.

Lacy,cat, Balvarian mountain hound , cur/ hound mix.
You need a dog with drive... And bottom to finish the track without giving up..

I have a bloodhound that is a pretty salty blood dog. took a bad shot nearly a mile last season and bayed it twice before the deer finally gave up. I've been very pleased with him. AND he's done most of it naturally, I have only worked him a little bit. Go's to show that it's hard to beat natural talent.

I run a lacy and a redbone/cat cross. Hound has a better nose, works a little slower, and has a little more size to bring a live one down or get him bleeding again( most calls are live deer). I have a couple of cur/hound pups that are going to be amazing. I have a friend that runs a lab and a lab/plott cross. The tough part for the labs in texas is that they seem to get hot quicker than the curs. She will stop and rest though. My curs scare me because they will run themselves to death. Dog has to be able to bay IMO because most lost deer are not dead. It will be a catch situation. Good luck man!! I love it! So do my kids!
