Mr. Ratman, I believe, 3 or some years ago, a fine gentleman by the name of Mr. Tom Hopkins had the same recollection as you and the walker people should all be thankful that he also had the means to do something about it. If more people really wanted to bring back the solid traits we lack today, Mr. Hopkin's foresight has more than paved the way. History can repeat itself for hind sight is 20-20, we all know what lines Lipper crossed well on and what dominate traits he puts in the majority of his offspring. We can use the knowledge we learned the first time around to stack the odds in our favor with future similar crosses. I also believe the old blood we are talking about in this post is still here today with other solid lines as Coma and Clover. Maybe the question is "What do we have to do to open the eyes of the breeders?" I heard from others and think is very true,,, Everyone who makes their dog a Grand Night thinks he / she needs to be bred. I think this is the biggest problem we have with the Walker breed.

Their are still some really good lines out there, Sauk mentioned a few, but what I think breeders need to focus on a little more is a certain line like Coma or Clover Or make a new line out of an exceptional individual but the familys must be bred close to use as a tool to keep what ever traits they posses.
No line of hounds is perfect and sometimes you just need an outcross to move in a certain direction but if we lose these familys in the Walker breed, everything is going to be a big ocean of genes, and you will get a box of chocolates every time.
Example:Coma line::::: if i need to add a little size and houndness, hard hunting, big mouth.
Lipper:::: heavy color, looks,mouth,deep hunter
Finley River::: tri-color, looks, clear mouth, solid tree dogs,accurate.....etc...etc,,,,
What happens is when i breed Coma to something else it becomes half something else, then on and on till we have lost what we had. I know their are different views that's just mine.

It's hard to sale an old blood dog these days to guys that don't understand what they have. They don't start fast enough, they don't tree hard enough, they don't go deep and alone, can't get them to bark and act like a F%#k Tard at a dead coon or a drag,,, lol. I gave 3 line bred Finley River pups to kids for prizes at our State Youth Hunt last year and not one of them still have them, and all them told me the things above. So here it is guys,, I line breed for TRAITS that suit me!!
1.) Intelligence: That Coon is dead, no need to bark.
2.) Tree Style : The old lines are all night kinda tree dogs, 60-70 BMP. Not 120 and the man shows up in 5 min.
3.) Hunt : If there left on the chain and not touched,THERE NOT GOING TO START. Most of my dogs are doing it alone 12-15 months.
4.) Range: There suppose to hunt like a Bird Dog, work the area not quit the country and get treed in the next county. Some tracks will take them out deep to get treed I understand, but not every time do they need to get deep.
5.) In years of Meat and Hide hunting the dog that wouldn't pack or keep up, was Culled. A dog can work a track and tree game with others and not be a Me-To SOB.
All I'm saying from my own mistake is I took a line of dogs that I'm the third generation to hunt/breed and I messed it up with one outcross, "ONE"!!! All because I look at the books and stud adds and thought it was what I wanted. Never again will make that mistake,, when I started those pups it was like they were speaking French, hunt traits was Spanish, and they had a BAD Gambling problem when it came to Treeing a Coon. So in short I'm back to Old Faithful and loving life. Line Breeding
Good luck to all and there breeding journey.
One more thing, when breeding make sure that your sure what your after, what you will stand for and what you will not, Black and White no Gray!!
And Cull those that don't make the cut. There will be plenty of pups to sale when you get rite.
Thanks ....

We are Talking about Foundation Stock.

Nothing has been watered down., old stuff to old stuff, coon dog to coon dog, Strait off the farm right to your door step, no additives or preservatives. Forget names and titles, look for the traits you like and breed for traits alone. You need to know the traits of not just the dog your hunting but the dog your breeding to. You need to know the traits that are passed down from generation after generation. It's to hard to know what your going to get when your breeding Hienz 57...There are to many variables..who knows what your going to end up with...I Don't consider myself a professional breeder by no means, and I learn something new Quite often.. But, I do make a mean cup of soup on a consistent basis with a little pinch of this and a little pinch of that every once and a while..But the main ingredients always stay the same...God Bless and Good Hunting!

Hope I didn't confuse anybody talking about Soup! 😊lol

Trinket Clark, artkiger, AGREE WITH EVERYTHING YA'LL SAID!!! Sauk Talking I don't Agree with what your saying about Tom Hopkins, He decided to make an OUTCROSS on Sackett Jr instead of line breeding on the Traits of Lipper AND THE HOUSE LINE!!! To use the SOUP Recipe He added when not needed!!! (MY OPINION)
NO DIRESPECT TO MR. HOPKINS HE BRED FOR WHAT HE WAS LOOKING FOR!!!!

Thank you..
One other thing I find very funny is that more than one line listed in this post all go back to one line. These lines stand on there own feet and have stood the test of time and proven them selfs beyond question. But without one line for certain there wouldn't be the others. So to fix the problem we need to go backwards to yesterday to get to tomorrow .

I had a Hillbilly Mac bred dog many years ago now but his picture is still framed and hung on the wall. He was one deadly accurate SOB, but again he was a little slow starting, I think he treed like 5-6 coons his first season and I walked 500-600 miles with him,,lol. Hillbilly Mac went back to that one blood line on his mothers side. Won't say a bad word about tge Hillbilly Mac line.

mike has the mac blood and
some people here in ohio on the studdog thread has the diamond blood under snakehollar kennels,
the pac blood died out when the cokebottle nose's and shaggy tails and timidness couldnt be tollorated no more..

i linebred on the house linebred crossed onto the finleyriver cheif/joe/banjo linebred dogs ,that linebred crossed back onto house tomtom/lawyer linebred dogs.

with these dogs fadeing out crossed them back onto house clint sons/grandsons that were linebred cruse/drifter/lawyer/house rebel on the 3 gen peds. i am now crossing rebel blood onto my old finleyriver/house blood that have a pinch of hardwood buster/bozo blood ..

i breed for natural coondogs that no matter how long they set on a chain they dont forget what they are bred to do.mother nature takes over when turned loose.

example:: one female sat on chain for 8 yrs for varous reasons before seeing the woods,1st night in woods acted like been doing hunting all her life,run her own coon track,never pulled to other dogs running. wasnt bred till she was 10yrs old had one pup
whitch was treeing squirrels from the puppy pen at 5-6months old.
this female pup approx 3 yrs old now,will be crossed back on a linebred house bred dog as soon as i figure which one will work best with her blood an traits.she (hunts close/medium,with/without another dog,good mouth,medium nose,handles with/without leash),,wow,,wish had the money to clone this dog,,lol
almost forgot,they make good watchdogs too,strangers beware of looseing fingers if trying to steal one of them...

not many have the money or patince to get as far as i have with my dogs,i dont have the time or money to make a bad bowl of soup at this time in my life.i'll stay with what i know works,,(line/inbreeding)

I agree with what you said with using the lipper semen on War Creek Ann, She has a good shot of Lipper through Clint but also has Sackett Jr. showing up twice. Many consider Sackett Jr. to be Yadkin River blood. So,, there really is only 2 lines here used and they did cross well together, Lipper and Yadkin River. In my opinion, with the dogs from this cross you do have the old blood up close and know where you are starting from. It's not pure Lipper or pure House's, or pure Yadkin River but far from Heinz 57.

I sold three litters of pups last Summer, they weren't all Grand nor were they the flavor of the month new blood. You can still find good bred dogs out there.

Dennis you are right, there are guy's out there busting their butt to keep a line going, myself included.What I wanted out of this post is for some of them to be recognized and their dogs.
And to challenge new breeders to stay with a line and learn how to breed what you hunt.
I believe that when you cross two heavy linebred strains together interesting things can happen. But you have to have those 2 strains! New one's are more than welcome to come along also, let's see what some guy's can bring to the table.
My focus has been with crossing Coma lines x Lipper x House lines. Love talking hounds with you guys and seeing whats out there.

Agreed!!! It's been nice reading info from and posting info to like minded guys with the same goals. Though our blood lines of choice may be different or similar in certan degrees we all seem to be on the same journey. Also it's been very refreshing that it hasn't turned into a B!+€% session or trash talking any of the lines discussed so far. Thanks guys and really enjoying this thread.

im gonna put my two cents in on this even though i have no idea what it takes to be a great breeder back when all the old lines were developed they all came from one start now if you take 100 dogs and try to breed each one for a certain trait pretty soon you will have one of every line in that mix if keep doing that you will get what we have today so just maybe instead of trying to hold on to the old lines maybe we should try to start new ones that are better i think for the most part its making things worse buy trying to breed for old blood because you will have what was the past thats why its called the past jmo so dont beat me up to bad

Bringing back some old memory's.

X2 Here Boys..This is about as close as I get to listening to guys talk dogs and breeding anymore. What I enjoyed so much as a youngster growing up was listening to all the older guys talking about there dogs, how they was bred and the different hunting styles. The crosses they already made and the crosses they was planning on making. Etc, etc. I was like a kid in a candy store.To me that was just as enjoyable as the hunt. Maybe more so. I miss those days. Nowadays it seems like everybody nows everything and can't wait to criticize someone else's efforts. Nobody wants to just sit and listen anymore and maybe give some Constructive Criticism, There is a difference. I'm all ears and eager to be a part of this breeding discussion.

I have an old country dog that I really like, he is not perfect, but he has the traits I like.
He comes from a long line of country dogs, and I have tried to keep it that way. Herein lies the problem, it is hard to find a female that don't have a pedigree full of the latest and greatest. Don't get me wrong I am not saying that mine is better or that those dogs are no good. All I am saying is that from a breeding standpoint, that is not where I want to go.
I finally found a first cousin female and made a cross. I kept one female pup, and wish I had kept more. She is showing a mixed bag of traits, most of which I like. And is making a pretty good dog in her own rite.
My male was one of two pups one being a female, and I think she is dead. So now I have something I really like and only have a father and daughter to keep it going. I have found a few dogs with common ancestors as mine, but nothing I like.

I have breed a few females for other folks, and they seem to be happy with the results, so this does give me a few half brothers to work with. But this brings in bloodlines that I don't want.
Any suggestions?

breed your father/daughter then breed a good female from that cross back to that father and/or a good son back to momma,keep a good female an male from each them cross,s and breed together .
if you keep/breed only the one with the traits you like,you should have what you want back again,will cost you a few yrs and some bucks to do it ,but will get your good stuff back if you keep only the good stuff.

if you give any of the pups to anybody"" dont give out"" any papers till they prove the pups are worthy of the papers.

thats how its done...

That sometimes is the hard part,, when you don't have those same family dogs to cross back on and even worse is when there half the same family and half what you don't want. Lol,, My advise would be go talk and hunting with guys that have line bred dogs and see if they have the traits your looking for. Hunt a lot of different dogs from that family, Father,mother, sister, cousin,grand parents, uncles and see what traits are passing from what dog and how those guys made there crosses and why. Then cross on your dog and line breed from there. Just know that the cross may not work, then start the process over. JMO there's no short cuts, you have to do your home work and put the miles in the woods to know if you made the correct choice.
Hope this helps,,,

Anyone else have thoughts??

ssiged, one of the reasons I started this post was to put like minded people together, allot of these guys have old blood and i am sure are breeding for traits you like, an outcross of a line you like that are really close in traits would help you tremendously. Give you multiple options.

he still has what he needs for his foundation stock..

the 8 yr female i talked about was a full brother sister cross from 2 different litters samecross about 2 yrs apart...

the male was doing it all at 7 months old ,made same cross again and one i kept died from i think neighbors flybaited some my dogs.

took a few yrs to buy back another female from that cross,went hunting with female at 8months old and was doing her own thing like older brother did.
got down to about to loose all the good stuff,inbreeding was only way to bring back..it worked.
i bred that inbred female to a linebred house male ,younger littermate to the tank dog jeff duvall has,,
only got the one female pup.
she was doing good in woods then came in heat on me .trying to figure what to breed her back to,,tank??or prince???(jacked up lipper4x bozo3x pinch finleyriver)
got a couple other linebred males here ,just havent had time to test them yet for traits i want.

Not sure how you could call Sackett Jr a yadkin river bred dog. I would think he would have been an outcross breeding.

I like breeding uncle/niece, aunt/nephew and first cousins. My Candy female is off of a uncle/niece cross and I bred her back to her uncle.

If that cross clicks like it should I plan on breeding them back to a cousin, then more than likely I will need a outcross before breeding back tight again.
