Training tip #1, see what they are made of before you think about breeding them.

I am not being smart, but why are you considering breeding them? What are you going to do with the pups? I'm just asking because I see to many people breeding dogs and not doing the research needed. Most people on here won't buy a pup anymore that isn't performance or super staked. They want 6 generation all grand. The cost to raise a litter of pup is not cheap and if you can't sell them what plans do you have with the pups you are stuck with? I know people that tried raising a litter of pups and couldn't even give them away. Too many people breed their dog and then try to figure out what they are going to do with the pups.

I will make sure that they are actaul coon hounds before i breed them. im not going to just breed them cause they are my hounds. and i know people perfer the all grand pedigrees and everything. but i know from experience that just cause they have the titles dont mean they are real hounds or good hounds. i know the tricks and all the bs in this sport. but if they do make actaul coon hounds yes i will breed them and sell them. im not going to be asking an arm and leg for each pup. i appreciate the help i do. but im not going to run a puppy mill or breed just to breed.

now would u tell me what u would consider being to clolse to breed. cause i know of ppl telling me different stories all the time. i just want more info on the sport. thanks for ur help. and i know what i have for hounds and i know there pedigrees.

Just in general , In breeding is Mother to Son or vice versa . Sister to brother or vice versa. Thats' why they called it the Vice Sqaud to Start with. Takes a wiered one to do it. Son to aunt is close and called Line breeding instead of In breeding. Some have had great fortunes bestowed on them by In Breeding . It works, Look at Family histories of Southerners. It also does not work with Yankee geenes anywhere in the Mix. Deaf, dumb , Blind, Stupid or cross eyed. Feeling Lucky? Have a go at it.

lol i have inbred dogs before. back a few years ago in the cur dog world that was the thing to do and i had a few inbred dogs that were ok but they was not as good as their mother or father. if it was me and your dog turns out to be a coon treeing dog i would bred it to the best coon dog i could find and your pups stand a better chance of being coon dogs. if your trying to make money off selling pups i wish you all the luck in the world.lol

SKEETS. for me to tell you the absolute truth. I carried 8, 7 week old pups to the Grand American out of the HOTTEST Things Bloodline Wise You ever Want to get Your hands on Walkers, Back in 1987. I Was FIRM . $200 or take yore ass on. --I sold One.
The best I came out was this past year, when buddies were hunting and some said , "if you ever breed her I want one". LOL So I said I will when she come in so lay $50 in my hand right now and I will hold you one and you get yore lazy ass over to my house and give me another $50 at 8 weeks and you can walk away with that sweet pupppy. A Few did but some seemed to have forgot their way to my house so that is what paid the Puppy chow . And then I resold them. Did NOT HURT My Conscience One little Bitty IOTA Neither. I Broke Even at best . But Hey, That is good messing with Puppies in my opinion, breaking Even. Dealing with all the AHs too . It ain't worth it.

lyle i understand. i use to sell a few pups years ago but ended up looseing money on most of them. now if i have a litter of pups ill keep what i want and just give the rest away, ive never been to good at begging people to buy a pup from me. if i bred a male and female together they both will be coon dogs or i want breed them. its to hard of hunting around here to be hunting a avg. dog and a slick treer want last long either after i climb down the bluffs to look at a empty tree.lol

I give alot away after I make My piks. Alot go to hog hunters and they stand in line for these leps. I might could get a doller or two out of them but Hog hunters are more or less looking for something for almost nothing around hear. about like every body else. I can't blame them the good ones don't last too long unless they would start these pups and put them up till they could dodge a hog. But they won't. So cycle, reycles I recon. I recon I am a
