Well for everyone that thinks you have to have an all grand ped to make a coondog, don't look at the top producing females in the January 2020 bloodlines.
Current
#1 is only a nitech
#4 only a nitech
what the bottom 3 only PR dogs
Historical
#1 only a nitech
#4,5,7,and 10 only nitech
# 8 only a PR dog
that means in the historical count only 4 out of the 10 are Grandnitech
Guess those good ole coondogs are coondogs and can reproduce coondogs regardless of how many times or if they never been hauled to town.
Just something to think about next time the all GRAND PED topic comes up. By the way, there is a male in the current that isn't even a nitech as well. They must be breeding on ability not just some title.
Interesting perception and it got me thinking enough to do a little research. First I'll point out there are very few all grand pedigrees in the Bluetick breed, personally I think that's a shame, though my hats off to the guys that have been able to put together a all grand pedigree, I prolly never will be able to. Second I'd point out that reproducing numbers are relative to titled dogs. Doesn't matter which go on to make Grand, once they are Nt ch, they are on the books as a nite hunt titled dog, so lets look at some numbers. The current Bluetick reproducers list features 10 females that have from 32.65 to 10 percent of their offspring have earned nite hunt titles, which average 17.88 percent. 7 of those 10 are titled females, so 70 percent of the current top reproducing Bluetick females are nite hunt titled themselves. Current top 10 reproducing Blue males have from 9.11 to 1.15 percent (4.478 percent average) titled offspring. 9 of the 10 are nite hunt titled (8 are grand), so 90 percent of the top current reproducing Bluetick males are nite hunt titled. Lets not stop there, lets look at Walkers, you know the ones shown all over Pro hound with big checks from winning elimination style nite hunts, while most of us Bluetickers watch from the side lines. On the walker top 10 reproducing females there are 2 nt ch and 8 gr nt ch, that have reproduced from 40 to 19.35 percent (22.79 percent average) titled offspring. So 100 percent of their top reproducing females are titled, plus they beat the blue's percentages by 10 percent. On the males, all 10 are grand nt ch, who reproduced from 17.24 to 8.18 (11.44 percent avg.) titled offspring, so 100 percent top walker reproducing males are grand nt and their average reproduction is almost triple that of our blue males. Given these facts do we really want to argue that non titled dogs are just as likely to reproduce titled dogs?
