I had one that I got him at 10 months old & he had never been handled or even had a collar on him. When I put a collar & lead on him he liked to have pulled my arm off. Within three days he acted like he had been trained to handle from a puppy on. He was a smart dog & an exceptional tree dog that had the coon a very high percentage of the time. He was a hard going dog that could get through the country if he had to but didn't blow out just to be doing it. All in all he made a very nice hound & the others I've hunted with were about the same, good about having the coon & nice loud tree dogs. Homer has turned out some nice coondogs & he is an exceptional dog also. They like to be your friend not just a ride to the woods.

I hunt with one on a regular basis. He is cold nosed, straddles a track, good locate and good tree dog. Trees a LOT of coons for a two year old dog. The man that owns him has a litter of pups off Homer and a Swamp female, but I believe they are all spoken for.
