Brindle dogs.

Nice looking prospects. Question for ya, when making that cross did you do it so that you would have some straight catch curs or were you looking for a catchdog with more handle or sense? I have a cross that I will be using and will be making a few more similar ones so just curious on your thought process.

these pups actually came from a friend. I have six of them. two females and four males. they are about 8 mos old. I was wanting some rcds to stop the runners in the brushy stuff I hunt, I was getting tired of broken bays and loosing hogs and hiking far to catch up to them or them running onto private land. I had acquired a couple lurchers that are straight catch but short range and was wanting something smaller with some grit and a better nose to back them up or the other way around. my buddy had an accidental breeding of the best gyp Ive ever known to one of his catch dogs(pit) and he kept a couple and offered me the rest. the best dog Ive had previously came from the same dam, was straight mtn cur, he was only a year and a half old but he was one of those dogs that can understand english or read your mind, he died mysteriously, possibly from a snake bite a couple months previous that may have caught up with him. so I could not pass these pups up. so far they are baying fools, one is committed to catching, I think a couple more will get catchier. its the first time ive raised up most of a litter like this, its going to be interesting to see who makes the cut, I really like four of them. different ones shine in different ways and on different days. but they are all progressing rapidly. at three months they were baying up my llamas and goats and putting teeth on them.

Yeah I hear ya with smaller properties out here gotta keep the races as short as possible. I am doing some similar things. Good luck with your pups, hope they work out for ya.

Was making a great one. Gone almost two years now

This is her and my old gyp.

Up and comer!!

What are they? that first dog looks like she could fly.

All full Parker's. She worked a track very fast.

Sanman, They don't get any better looking then that gyp. If she hunted like she looks, I would still be grieving her loss. Great legs & feet on her.

do you like her feet because they are round and toes are tight? as opposed to elongated and more open toed?

[Cajun]

Yep, A cat footed dog(term only) seems to hold up better if you hunt day after day. I have seen plenty of other dogs that had kind of elongated feet that held up as well but the really flatfooted dogs seem to have nothing but problems.

Cajun, it does still hurt, lol. Hurt so bad I paid a pretty good penny for her unstarted litter  sister as a brood gyp. She doesn't look as nice as her though. Looks like a damn Labrador, lol.
