I agree with some of you, pups cost money, because you had your stock. Training, etc. With that being said, lets talk walkers and coon dogs. Lets look in the mirror. Ok, Coon dogs talk about accuracy, barks per minute, lay up coon, etc. I never hear the term feet, which seem to be getting loose, or lets talk nose. I havent seen many advertised good feet and cold nose. its a money game, on which dog tree's a coon, honest or dishonest. So, us back yard breeders, like me, which cross grade trash as quoted, makes bear and cat dogs, with a high turnout because I've hunted five generations of them. They can smell a cat or bear, that a all grand whatever ,doesnt know is there. They can run it, bay it on the ground, for hours, and tree it, or staple the cuts, and go next week. So, when the coon dog breeders, can breed dogs, that can do this, And smell a track over a few hours old, I wont have to worry about breeding my trash, to tree a bear, or cat. We all hunt different things folks, but nose is leaving the walker breed, that doesnt breed for cold nose, only competiton. I put a post on here, a year or so ago, and got two replies of cold nosed walkers. Both were old guys, registered dogs, but not competiton hunted. None of the well known stud dogs got suggested to me. I have an idea, tomorrow, I will leave my one registered walker at home and take the papers hunting, and see what I put on the table . .
99% of the coonhunters i know could care less about the feet myself included ,,,,you going to hold it aginst the dog if it has all black toenails an 2 white??? lol
