Congrats on your purchase. This little female sure has a track driving, tree banging pedigree. Keep us posted (if you don't mind) on what you breed her too, as I'm sure there are several out there (like me) who may be interested in a pup.
I really do like the pedigree!!
I had the good fortune of hunting with Red Bud 75 at an English Days event, when he was young and I can tell you he was one of the fastest track and tree dogs I have ever been in the woods with. All that Boyd Little Joe blood and Old Goose blood is a GREAT asset as well.
If you don't mind a quick story about that English Days hunt. Steve was handling Bud and he had treed a of coon that was sitting up around this cornfield. And OMG was it hot that night. My dog and some of the others had worked a bad track away from the tree Bud was treed on. After scoring Buds tree plussed, Steve cut him back into our dogs that were working away from the area. Bud went to the dogs and just began rolling away from these dog and within a couple minutes he was driving and my dog and this guy from Kansas dog were trying to catch up but by now our dogs are 100 - 200 yards behind. That ole boy from Kansas looked at me and said (what do you think he is running) I said "well I think he is running a coon and our dogs are getting so far behind they think they are first" LOL
About that time Ole Bud rolled up treed, and was treed for about 3 minutes before my dog and this dog from Kansas got there. Needless to say we seen that coon too. Ole bud sure was a track driving, for ever more tree dog.
Good Luck with this little female!!
