Sterling Run English kennels
Figured it was time to update my Kennel thread. Alot has happened and ill start off with the backbone of my kennel.
NtCh Barbers Hardtime Mawley. she was purchased to be pushed hard in the hunts, well i never got that part done for her. When she was 9 i started running her in the hunts, my son put her in a few, my buddy did too. Cause i was working alot of overtime. I knew she was an awesome coon treeing machine so made the time to push her i put her in 3 hunts never lost a cast. Made her ntch with 2 firsts and a 2nd. Heres her pedigree
I bred her to my old dog Barbers Hardtime jed. they all made good old country coondogs. but i felt like she was capable of much more. A lil over 2 years ago i bred her to Ch Grntch Rhoads Tri County Slammer. she had 7 pups 6 lived and kept track of most of them. the ones well placed turned out according to how they were worked. A buddy of mine has a female and pleasure hunts her and has been pleased so far another female was going strong and i heard she had a heat stroke after a hunt and eventually died. I had a male i kept well he didnt turn out tried my patience to much but you never know he could have been awesome but didnt get the chance. Im looking for certain things and if i cant see it early no since in waiting my time. Another male came up missing. One more male someone gave up on. i kept a female and Tim Rhoads has a female. My female was coming on like crazy and something ran her off a tree one night and she just hasnt been the same. She is still alive and well but not being hunted at the moment. And Tims female he calls her Ugg. she is an awesome lil hound i have put her in a couple hunts for him, 1st hunt she won her cast but it was all circle points the next cast i put a 3rd on her and Tim already put a 1st on her. I have had the pleasure of hunting with her alot this season and last saturday we had a pound hunt that lil dog treed the crap out of them coons .So there is 2 females out of Slammer and Mawley we still have high hopes for.
The next cross I made was with Doug Terrell's Grntch Backyard Limited Edition Le
She had 5 pups 3 lived 2 was born dead. She had a tough time because she is 10 now. But raised the 3 with no problems i kept 2 of them a male and a female. Doug got the other male. They are not quite 6 months old yet and will be started in the spring.
I will post pictures of the pups out of both stud dogs and the other young dogs we are currently working on.
I have an 8 month old out of Slammer and a lightning maggie bred female. I got him at 5 months old and started spending time making up to him. Decided i would take him along one night well he took right off with the other dogs. I have been hunting him every since and hes became my main priority this season.
My son has a big blue male out of Dino and Birdie , that big ole sucker started early too and has been going strong every since. He has a big mouth killer locate and a real tree dog!
He also recently bought Ntch Main Street Demo who was just recently bred to Hoss. She is a real treat to hunt as well. Some nights you cut her and she will go 300 to 500 yards and have the coon other nights she will go .65 or whatever it takes and have the coon then too. So we have alot of potential in the works but as any serious coon hunter knows it takes alot of woods time to make these hounds turn out to what we are looking for in the perfect hound. Which by the way no one will ever find it lol. I will get some pictures of these hounds on here when i have more time. Thanks for reading
