I've only had two that have any decent amount of lipper blood in them. I've never had a hound with a ton of lipper blood. Out of the two I had one that was very inconsistant but she had a TON of nailor in her and I blame that trait on all the nailor blood. Shed look like a million bucks one night and the next I wouldn't of given ya 5 dollars for her. Needless to say I bought her under a tree on a night she looked like a million bucks and took a good loss on her when I couldn't take it anymore and sold her.
The other hound I have has been good to me so far. He isn't the worlds best dog but he goes hunting and trees coon. I can't ask for anymore. He's also less than 2 years old and tonight was his first night of a kill season so hopefully he does well after his first kill season is all said and done.
Me myself I prefer the heavy harry blooded walkers. But everyone has his own opinion.
And If I had to guess I'd bet your lipper dog showed that blue dog how it was done that night and that's why you got that comment.
most of the new kids on the block call the nailer dogs "lipperblood" "houseblood"
when they dont know any better,,
as nailor blood is more like (his sire)tar rattler blood than anything else..
thats where the inconsistacy comes from!!!!
if can live with the dogs bad nights verse the good nights
they are great night hunt dogs as theres always the hunt the next weekend
to hope they are on the right page to get a win..
but when you are fur hunting and walk up and down a few mountains to some slick trees,,
the off nights can make a dogs life in the short range..
when bred to the right female ,you might get a consistant dog from nailor blood,
but breeding that dog to something else ,back to hopeing for the best again..just my opion..
after feeding 500-1000lbs of dogfood per week breeding and raising pups from the different lines of walkers ,i perfer the consistant blood oover the night hunt type blood as my dogs had to pay for their feed when season came in..
with the price of furs verse feed price today,,we'd have to clean the woods out to just break evan these days..
good luck with whatever type dog ya'all perfer to feed
