anomolies in the breeds
Maybe it's just me but where do you think they came from? hounds with tight skin, small feet shorter than usual tails and hot nosed to boot, but they sure look good on the bench don't they? What about the solid colored hounds out there with the white showing on their chest and even feet occasionally? How about the Pink noses that keep cropping out in some, and the coarse hair and flag tails on others. Now I'm not picking on anyones breed in particular, just stating the facts as they appear to me. Most of the outcrosses that produced these characteristics were made made a long time ago, however, we are still seeing the results in the breeds today. We have hounds that chop 120 barks a minute on tree and Dogs that look stunning on the bench as a result of all this selective outcrossing by our ancestors. The advent of DNA profiling will help regulate this to some extent, and I commend UKC and the other KC's for implementing it, but as long as there are people in the process there will always be new things to watch for. What color is Liver anyway??
My point is if you are honest about the cross, then go for it just like I did. Tell the truth, register them as what they are and let time and the pups prove whether you were right or not. As far as the percentages go, how many pups really make coondogs from any breeding.
