Texas Smoke is that the line of dogs that have english hound in them ? LOL Don't know if it was english or walker....but those mtn curs could hunt with the best....and you didn't need a bull dog....but back then we had a few pied in the first few litters...that is why I say...a little hound never hurts....I might get shot for saying it but if its a good yeller dog is cause someone made a trip behind the woodpile with there best yeller...and a generation or two later....they throw true...no pied's... dang....I think I said it without really sayin it...   Back in the day there was another famous dog in the mt. Cur breed named Busher Sam....he won it all and it was admitted later that he had plott in him...lots of folks still like to say that there dogs have busher blood... just one time with the right hound....and selecting the best pups from there is key....that way folks will have something to talk about... |

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...

Yea Mike told me Whitey had bird dog in him ! LOL
Way back...the first time I hunted with mike he had two yellow dogs that hunted pretty hard...later he told be he crossed english point and these pups were from that cross..he said that was the huntingest pointer he ever saw that it didn't matter if it was 110 degrees he hunted the same all day...I reckon if you add snother breed it needs to be of the best... |

Lewis Ross kept Yeller dogs east of us.
Preacher Ray out of Zavalla kept a line of brindles for years. Last ones I saw were in mid 90's dont know who kept his line if anyone.
Murdocks out of Nac County kept some Yellers and Brindles that were cobb rough. Believe Howdy is only one that has anything left.
Cook boys in Etoile had everything under the sun. Lots of cur/ridgeback crosses. Had A Yeller dog called blue collar that was rediculously good bout fifteen years back. Believe Darron has some offspring still over their.
Greg Murdock started back hunting hard two or three years ago. He has one of the nicest three year old dogs going in this area. Half of those Murdock dogs come black and tan and half come yellow. His three year old has some eight month old pups on the ground that are doing really good. |

The jest of them came from Bennet Ray McMullin. Most of the founding Davidson bred dogs were from him as well. A friend of mine just got this dog off him week ago. Says he still has one or two old dogs over there from his original stuff. He doesn't work hogs just cattle. I am supposed to make a round over to see him in the next month or so and let him fill me in on where all his start came from. I have two crosses in my dogs one twenty two years ago and a second around twelve years that go back to some of his dogs....so I am very interested to pick his brain. Here is Bennet Ray with the young dog that ironhead21 picked up from him the other day....and no.....we were assured that the lil rear snuffer wasn't part of the breeding program. LOL |

Ok... Thnx. I was just wondering bc he was my wife's grandpa and had some jam up yella dogs. May not even be the same line. Since he's passed the family has done away with the dogs. I figured it would be worth the research. I had a great deal of respect for him and wouldn't bother me a bit have a dog with his breeding in it, or least know that it's still going.

Hey fellas, there was a man around Rusk about fifteen years ago named Kevin Blackwell that had good yella dogs. Was wondering if anyone knew where he got his start of dogs from?
