.

Thumb through the Bloodlines and Prohound magazine and look at the nite hunt winners. Your choice will be crystal clear.

My opinion is if your new to coon hunting, stick to the one you have now until you finish it out and then start on the next project. Let the the first one be a learning experience.

Have seen alot of guys new to coon hunting get gung ho and start out with too many dogs or working a couple young dogs at the same time get frustrated and burn out.

I thought this kid was looking for a finished dog, not another pup.

Yeah, dont get a new pup to hunt you pup with, thats like putting a 2 year old in front of ice cream and saying "dont touch it"

Thanks for the replies. When you say finish him do you mean finish training or finish hunting the dog?

finish the Redbone.but?if u can can find a finished hound that u know is straight & accurate and a solid coon dog nite after nite?then go ahead and run them together occasionally or a few nites a week?.but if ur red dog is running & treeing steady on his own,then hunt him more by him self.just take out the broke dog with him a few times a week if u like?.its always fun to listen to a few dogs working together.but focus on the young dog more to give him the opportunity to make it as a coondog.takecare & good luck

Don't be color blind cause their are good dogs in every breed. If the Redbone is doing well keep hunting him, he may turn out to be something you'll never be able to replace.

How long should I hold off on getting another one? I just heard its a whole lot easier to hunt with 2 or more dogs, but I see what y'all mean by it would be a headache. Cause the dog can be one now.
