truthfully they were known for lazy close range dogs used in the mountains but HARD tree dogs. They will look like a million dollars when they want but if they dont want to go hunting you cant make them... They get this from rattler and some arent anything like i described. I guess it all depends on the female you breed them to. Thats probably why so many people crossed them on lipper females.
yep,
look like a million dollars one night and crap the next night.
breeding the right female might make the difference but line breeding on something like that dont do anything for me..
i bought a nite champion female direct out of nailor and one night she looked great,the next night she could slick tree with the best of them,looked good sounded good ,
but i cant stand incosistant dogs,i want to see the same or better each night they go to the woods..
she should have made grand nite but the guy that hunted her in the hunts must have got tired of the bad nights...
a friend had a male that was the same ,look like a million one night and run up and down the middle of the road the next like he was lost.
he gave the dog away and it wasnt long the dog had a grand nite title on it,,
i dont trust nitehunt titles just because of dogs like this.too many handler made titles or hunted till they hit the right night in the woods.
i always thought tar rattler was the one that put it the dogs ,glad someone else seen the same thing i seen.
above is the reason rattler fizzed out in the stud pen .
and didnt help by breeding him to lipper female as nailer just past it on down the line to the next gen..
if all you cared about was titles then sooner or later you will get your titles with a nailer bred dog if you got enough wait in you, but i wont breed to another rattler/nailer bred dog if i want to keep one for my personal COONDOG..just my opion
