Point taken and understood Bill.However that dog is not a bluetick by todays standard.Its a throw back to the old walker blood(boy I opened a can a worms with that one LOL)You know papers only mean a tool to me.Ive had my share of the so called "genetic mud" and will again if I think/or it can get the job done.
I will post that picture of that French hound wherein they crossed these all white females with Gascogn hounds to maintain the breed- well sort of. All the males disappeared during the French Revolution. I guess they cut the owner's heads off because they were of the landed aristocracy. LOL In any event, that good looking hound posted in this thread could pass for one of those French hounds. Here is a full blooded French Gascogn.

My Remington has more ticks than this hound, but yet this breed is the basic stock from which Blueticks came from. There has always been crosses between white and tri-colored hounds and the Gascogn. That includes Europe and here.
Did you see the Bluetick picture in the Purina ProPlan Magazine for this month?
Buckshot, I'm sorry, we took your thread over. LOL
