Just dogs that catch game, period. Anything else is just a bonus to me. They have to be somewhat intelligent to be good game catchers. A dog that mindlessly barks up a tree without game in it is dumb as a box of rocks. I like these terms people are creating to describe these culls- they think these dogs take a gamble or are reasoning there decisions out to get treed or not!!! Hahahaha! They either have a sound mind that allows them to catch there prey, or they don’t! Period!
Ghost...I have to agree with you...we need not be wearing rose colored glasses...
As I said earlier in my post... I like a dog that does it right Day in and day out...good dogs don’t need excuses...they will look good in any company...
