The one we own currently, he is just a grade dog of unknown history, we think he is prolly a 7 or 8 year old dog.
The family calls him Boone, I call him "Meat". When the tailgate drops, you better plan on having a coon, it's that simple. If he were a younger dog and registered I'd comp hunt the hell out of him. He's just too slow to compete. He will take an old cold feed track and work it out and have the meat, or hit a hot track and push it hard. He is the best dog I've ever owned.....period. Once in a blue moon he'll tree a possum, but it is a rare event. His voice is beginning to go, has a bawl on track, a beautiful locate and hard fast chop on the tree. In the last two months of hunting, the boys have went around 40 nights and he's only been shut out on two of those nights. Pup trainer deluxe, we're running a english pup and a blue pup with him right now. He is a hard, intense tree dog, nothing bothers him on the tree. I wish I would have owned more like him over the years, first red dog we've ever owned. A guy wanted us to price him last week, the dog isn't for sale. He is too good of pup trainer and too good of a young hunter trainer. He'll prolly get buried on the place. Let him out of his pen Tuesday night and cast him on out place,we left some standing milo by the creek and he had one treed in less than ten minutes, didn't even have to start the truck, just walked a half mile to the tree and sure enough had him, with the blue pup backing him. Would love to have another one like him.
