i like that second male and the female runt that second male has a little more leg on him and He is my #4 favorite right now...the runt female is everyone's favorite but she is going to a good hunting home...and if she hunts right will be bred to a dog that has 50% of my favorite line of dogs... then I will get a female pup back.. What I like about her is her good legs and natural muscle tone with that slick coat...she is built right for a natural bob tailed pup...I like every thing about her except for her natural bob tail...I like breeding to long tailed dogs and a bob tailed every now and then is ok... Yea Dustin...I don't mind helping in any way I can... |

Reuben as far as natural ranging goes, do you pretty much take em to the woods and walk with em, watchin who leaves out and who stays closer? I do this with my 3 pups quite a bit now, my female is startin alot stronger then my 2 knothead males but females have always picked up on things faster for me in both bird and hoghunting dogs.

I take the pups straight from the pen to the dog box because I want them fresh and ready to go do something...then in some nice open woods I drop them out and watch them...I don't pet them or give them any attention...What I want to see is all the pups leaving out...once I see who is the leader I will leave that one at home and see who will step up...but at 4 months old and the followers follow then I am ok with that at that pups age...either way a stroll in the woods with the pups just to observe them in action is also a good training exercise... |

Pretty sure he bred to a male Jarred owned that was made off the Joe x Sassy cross. Larry owns the Joe dog and I think he owns the male to now.

Mike...BA-I4 is right...The son of the Joe dog was named Larry but now that he is in Larry's yard I am thinking he has a new name...but he is the pups sire... |

I saw something yesterday that got my blood pumping...
I had the big dogs running loose and they were running and play fighting ...the redbone pit cross sounded like a freight train when he opened up... two of the small pups ran for cover and 3 pups fired up and bayed the big dogs...I didn't see any fear in the pups... and no back up...I believe the bay style I like is going to be there...they are not quite 7 weeks...

the runt female can really travel at almost full speed when looking in the yard for scattered pieces of meat...I call her "FLY" like a great hunting female I had at one time who was also the runt of her litter...same style of pup...
The pups are 2 days shy of 9 weeks and they are now trying to control the food bowl...I don't have the time to teach them to eat together harmoniously but I stand by when I have the time...
Today, 2 pups went at it for a long time in an all out war in the back yard...totally silent like pitbulls and finally another pup came in and one got double teamed...that is when I stepped in and broke it up...I really like the whole litter, they look like pure mtn cur and they have a ton of bay...they are ready for a small 30-60 pound shoat...I need to buy one if anyone has a decent shoat in brazoria county...
Last night I put the mama and her 9.5 month old son (Tonka) in a bay pen and they both looked awesome...they would have taken the prize on the old dog young dog bay...well...probably not at uncle earls...I will try to get them on video before I sell the pup and post it on here...

not much to report...I cut out the "hidden in the yard" chunks of liver because they were pretty good at it. The black male is my favorite because he is built the best and has a good coat and disposition...he has a good nose and was second best at finding and locating...probably because of his speed, nose and brain power...The black female (the runt) is the fastest and has a good nose as well. She makes it all look easy...
I ran a few drags for them starting at 10 weeks and they didn't click...tried it 4 or 5 days in a row and no go...At 4 month of age (last week) I ran a drag and then turned them loose...The black female ran the track several times but couldn't locate...the black male did almost as good...
I have been pretty busy with my work but they are ready for a pig in the bay pen...My work will free up the first week in November so I will get a pig then for the bay pen...These pups have been wanting to bay something for several months now...They have been snacking on a few pig heads here and there so they know the smell...
One of the brindle pups has a ton of heart. He is not the biggest nor the strongest but he is top dog by sheer determination...I had a dog like that before when it came to who was top dog or who could run the longest and the hardest it was him...this brindle pup reminds me of him...
Sometime soon I will take them out and find out if any have that natural desire to go hunt in the woods...
I am always on the look out for natural ability...

well...running behind on training these pups...but I do like the black ones best...and the black male pup has been in the woods 3 times...first time didn't do much and the second time he rolled out with the big dogs...today was his third time out and once I turned him out he rolled out with my 2 dogs and they went out of range on my receiver...it was raining and cold and I made the decision to follow friends and there dogs...had to turn back because the water got deeper...finally located the dogs and I couldn't get to them and the dogs had split up...long story short the black pup was bayed up with one of the dogs and he made the race...almost 5 hours...they had a big big boar bayed and I had to call them off...hated to do that but had to get out...the older dog swam the slough back and the pup jumped right in and swam back right behind him so I wasn't feeling the cold about that time...today he earned his name...his name is Smoke...the 2 Smokes before him wore some big shoes so time will tell...now that deer season is over I have to work with these pups...
will post some pics soon...
