1/2 plot 1/2 curr
Gives them the nose and the grit too stop one where they stand . Best dog I've hunted with is that and she'll straight up burn the woods down to find one.

This was my best dog "Dixie" she was 1/2 Running Walker, 1/4 ridgeback, 1/4 bulldog. She would hunt long range and stop a runner in his track's. When we would come up on a catch, if you wanted to go home you better of caught her before killing the hog. When she new you had the hog she was gone to the next one. She was killed by javalinas 2 years ago.  |

I would go with a 1/2 Croghan hound x 1/2 blackmouth...
Croghan is just a rough line of running walkers.

Talking with some of the old time Plott hunters, they mentioned that the old Cable line of Plotts were the best dogs they have seen they were a Plott/Cur cross. I am going to breed one of my Fl Cur female to a Pure Weems bred dog from Dan Moody. The dog is a Top bear and boar hunting machine. He is the most athletic Plott you have seen and is tight mouthed finish the track kind of dog!! Barks a couple times when he gets the track started, then not a word till he is facing the bear or hog. One dog show!,

Ought to be good . I got the Plott crossed on my old dogs a lot of Leopard Cattle type dogs worked great and getting better seems like and I just added the Partin dog now to the mix, so we will see how it goes. |

http://www.easttexashogdoggers.com/forum/index.php?topic=68489.msg437340#msg437340a dog like that black plott that cajun owned looks like an indepenent can do it alone type of dog...been thinking about talking to cajun one day soon...  I like the comments he wrote about his dogs...just cutting down a little on the cold nose is all for me...every thing else I like... I like crossing one time and then keeping it pure after that one cross... Ruben, Cajuns dogs are a site to see in the woods his line of Potts are brutal on a hog. Ive hunted cur dogs for 15 yrs and now making a change, going to his line of dogs. People all over the world have some of his blood . Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 2 |

I use a Running Walker, it is the most heat tolerant of the hound breeds. You are not going to find the drive and stamina in other hounds in this South Texas heat. They are plenty aggressive and a cold fast paced nose. Breeding to a real rough 1/2 bulldog 1/2 cur will produce some of the best hog dogs. This is my opinion at least.
some of the best I've seen was 1/2 plott 1/4 cur 1/4 pit Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 2 |

Cajun's name is Mike, and he is a terriffic guy. The dog in his pic was an outstanding young dog and line bred out of his Trapper dog. Trapper died two months ago and he was what every plott should be. I have a couple of dogs from Mike and I hunted with him last year in Canada for bear. All I can tell you, is if you are lucky enough to get a dog from him, you may be waiting in line for a while. His plotts are about as rough as they come. He catches a lot of hogs and he has a lot of dogs,,,becuase they get cut up a good bit.

I am talking to a guy in Kansas right now who has some running hounds that he uses on coyotes. Blood consist Hellums and Crghan with a little trig and july in them..Anybody know anything more about these lines?
Suppose to be super fast on track. A little tighter mouth but still open. He hunts them year around and says they can run all day!
I am wanting to get a gyp to put my Tiger dog over. He is 5 years old now and has never gotten any pups out of him. Got a good feeling about crossing him over some type of running hound!

Boy!!!! That is a loaded question. Depends on what your looking to get out of the cross I imagine.....and who you ask. Most likely it comes down to a specific dog having the traits you hope to add AND his/her ability to reproduce that trait/traits. Good luck with this one.......as has been said many a time on ETHD, get out, hunt with some find what suits you and breed to it........hope it produces itself and not its single crapiest grandparent.LMAO
i agree there are alot of really good hounds out there they will add to most familys will give them a heck of a hunting drive good noses.but then you mite get some traits you dont like open on the trail,cold nosed,slow on the trail not gritty enough to stop a hog.you really need to search and do alot of hunting to find what you want. i think plot and walkers would be your best bet. |

mtn cur...middle of the road...good nose, just about right...good winding ability...great finding ability and plenty of grit and bottom...
I judge grit on a coon dog if he is willing to kill a boar coon by itself...
