Hardwood Homer = Skuna River Fred x Raccoon Valley Queen

Skuna River Fred = Skuna River Lipper x Raccoon Valley Queen.


if this is correct, then Skuna River Fred was bred back to his mother to produce Hardwood Homer?

Is this correct?

Thank you for your response.

I just bought a Bone Collector pup and was looking at the pedigree.

It was a accidental breeding from what I read he got in the pen with his mama.

I have a female off homer, and while she isnt perfect she will die at my house. She has plenty of go, and is accurate. she handles better than any ive ever had and is a true pleasure to hunt. im accutally going to breed her to lock box or bone collector this spring.

I've heard the good ones were really good, but then others were crazy. Which I believe is what to be expected when breeding that tight.

Fred threw a lot of heart in his dogs. I'd rather have a dog that would try as hard as they could and make mistakes but slowly get better and better. Then have a dog, that you have to hunt with another dog, to get it to hunt.

Alan Smith of Knoxville, Tn owned Raccoon Valley Queen. He also owned Fred as a young dog and had them kenneled near each other. Fred, at the time was just barely a year old managed to slip out of his kennel and into Queens and the rest is history. Not the way it was planned and say what you will about some of his pups but ol Homer sure was a dominant reproducer of winners. He was an outstanding dog in the woods as well.
