Here are the answers to a few questions about Shaker. He is a first and first hound in a lot of company. Hunts alone or in company. Very open track dog and a good steady tree dog. He is chop both ways but on occasions will throw a bawl in on the ground. He is a very cold nosed hound and will put a end to his tracks. One of the most accurate dogs I myself have ever hunted with and I've hunted with several. He is a loud dog and can be heard a long way on track or tree. He will hold pressure. He is real good if other dogs pull up short he moves on and gets the coon treed right. He is broke to come when toned but can be called in too most times. He has a head full of sense and will follow you out when you are ready to go. Goes to and from chain to truck no leash needed. Trees better in cold weather than the dead of summer. He will chew on a vine or bush if one on or beside the tree but two minutes has never caught him even if on tree by himself. Once you get to the tree he usually gets quiet and listens for meat to hit the ground. He is a good meat dog and a good kill dog. I have described him honestly and he will be this way. If I had to fault him anywhere it would be on the amount of mouth he gives on track and the fact that he will chew some at the tree. If you have any other questions feel free to ask.
You can see top and bottom pedigrees on page 2 of Glass' stud thread. He has a lot of old blood in him.
