I listened to it earlier on. I enjoyed it except I missed the part where he talked about considering the introduction of some border collie to freshen those plott dogs up.

Mike, it was an enjoyable listen. It sounds like you hunted a time or three! lol
Tell us about them old cur dogs. I know you said what you had couldnt reproduce. What were they? Where they scatterbred cur dogs or just the line of dogs the hunters aged out?
Ive spent a lot of time with these old cur dogs......but this plott dog thing can create an itch on an old hog hunter!

I just listened to it and have to apologize. The reception on my end was not that great.
Those cur dogs came out of Abita Springs, La. and they were Catahoula Curs. Those guys had cows and hogs in the woods and had about gotten rid of all their dogs. I was shoeing a horse for Sal Smith and noticed a few cur dogs hanging around and asked him about them. He said they were all that was left of his Dad's dogs that he used on cows and hogs. He had a young blue leopard about 8 months that he offered me and said he was going to keep the parents. The Dam of the pup was a blue leopard and the sire was a yellow brindle.Those dogs were leggy lean built dogs not at all like the heavier built Catahoulas seen today. Anyway I took him and he made a real dog that had unbelievable stamina and a real good nose. I had gotten a gyp from Robert Hobgood( She was a Mason bred dog) and bred them. One of those was one of the ones that stayed bayed so long. He was a Yellow brindle like his Grandsire. Named him Couger and the other one was a Blackmouth cur that was a 1/4 treeing Walker named Hank.

So you didn’t get the opportunity to do any line breeding with those dogs. They sound like my kind of dogs.

No TDog, sure didnt. Had a Grandson of Dawg and he was a pretty fair dog but never reproduced himself.
