Mr Turner
the littermates to the pup were culled when born...the sire and dam are out of a father/daughter cross that worked out well, but then the bro/sis got together, and he thought it was just too tight...this pup was born almost 24 hours later, and I got him....they are VERY hard going, they like to be alone, hard headed, intelligent but hunting is #1 for them, no exceptions...I would call them very accomplished track dogs, I have seen a few coon races from them that you would swear were deer races...good winding ability along with big squall mouths, but they are a little slow to settle into tree dogs...some of them may be two years old before they really settle down on trees like they should....but all in all, some of the best track dogs I have seen....oh, and the pup I had, that was so inbred, he had a HUGE mouth, a lot better lookin than his pic, an unbelievable athlete, seriously, he layed up a kitten right in front of me at 5 months old, didnt tree on it, but he saw it, it was about 12 feet up, he bayed it pretty good, and about a week later I sat on a pond dam and watched him layup a coon in 25 mile an hour wind, it took him probably 15 minutes, and he was one tree off, about 10 feet from the coon, but what more could you ask from a pup? He could cover ground faster than seemed a dog should be able to, but didnt show much interest in tree, but he died at 10 months old...
