Thanks for responding so thoroughly to my pesky questions.
I sure like the looks of Karma. I'll bet she got those longer ears from Sandy Creek Jake, who I heard was pretty houndy looking.
There is really nice fella out here in Colorado by the name of Phil Samuelson, a Redbone breeder who also has some really fine looking Redbone hounds as well (some Sierra stock but other strains as well), and I believe he had previously sent me a photo of Karma that he got somehow because he knows I appreciate a houndier-looking dog. Pity about her voice. Maybe she strained it too much when she was young. I doubt it's genetic. I'll bet that if you bred Karma to a big, loud male, like, say, Phil's Nitro who has a big booming bawl mouth (though maybe you've already got a male like that), you'd get pups with plenty of voice.
Chickee is also very good-looking in that extra houndy way I like.
I've just got all-blue blueticks right now that I run on cats, but I'd like to get a Redbone or two some time next Spring so I'm checking out various strains. Of course, I've got my eye on Blakesleys as well as a couple of other strains.
Very handsome hounds.
Best of luck with all your dogs.
Tom
