There are a few guys up here who keep the dogs all the time and then there are some hog hunter who might have one here and there, Scott who posted above me in this thread as Sdrummond keeps and works BMC dogs on his ranch all the time both as cow and hog dogs or what ever else is needed, the other fella is James wilcox who brought some BMC dogs into this country years ago and was about the first one to really be known to have some up here way back when, James is the retired foreman of the Drummond ranch ( different drummond ranch from scott, but same family ) Other than that there are just some cowboys who get there dogs from these 2 guys when they need one and most of the cowboys don't really breed much, there pretty much the only 2 breeders and workers of the yeller dogs in my area which is big ranch country, tall grass praire type terrain. My lana gyp came from Scott and is related to some dogs that he and james both have and will be bred back to that blood " TIGHT " before I transplant to South Texas, there foundation bred dogs so to speak but there not the $ market type dogs there the get work with out excuses type dogs, if not those 2 fellas will cull them. Hope that answers your question

That's really my main question wasn't knocking the foundation dogs but there were many lines out there prior to the foundation craze. Mostly were old lines held by local individuals. Just was curious to see where these pockets of yellow dogs were still the strongest without factoring the foundation lines in. The other part is alot of the members only have experience with that particular line and would probably enjoy hearing a lil history of the non published lines.

I need to clarify my statement. In my area all the dogs i know of have some foundation In them
Their are a lot of good dogs from old catch strains that are the base of their breeding program with foundation mixed in
