I personally have zero tolerance for an aggressive dog. The degree of aggressiveness doesn't matter as they will pass it on genetically. It is one trait that doesn't skip a generation. An aggressive dog had a parent that should have been spayed or cut on both ends.
It is like being pregnant! It either is or isn't. I have little respect for owner who knowingly enters one into a hunt. What kind of an example are you setting for our youth when you knowingly and willingly enter a mean dog?

Does being "strong" pass on genetically?

Two at tree

Kevin, I believe that the two at tree are not involved with the fight so they "Do Not" get scratched just the two involved according to the way it was explained.

Here's a question for some.

Is a rough tree dog the same as an aggressive dog?


IMO there's a difference between them. But just curious.

I've been in one hunt that was pretty bloody. Dogs covered around and pinched and fights started. Been in maybe 3 or 4 more that have had an actual dog fight. It's not as common as people think.

What's really common is people hunting dogs that won't stay treed, and people that can't tell when their dog is treed and tree them running,. They blame the minus they take on a mean dog.

People want honesty when a dog is rough but can't even be honest with themselves

Do you consider a dog that blows back when he is trying to be pushed from his spot to be aggressive?

everyone want's to have that dream dog that just backs off a foot or two and stays tree n never leaves but that isn't what we always get.
you raise, train them and hope they turn out good but you get what you get. if you own enough dogs you will have dogs that are to mean and to sissy. both are crappy culls.

socialisam

I want my dog to depend on the government , all dogs created equal , have the same aggression , and be just a passive , I want him to have the same volume , I want him to run just as fast and walk just as slow , I want him to be just as ugly and sexy as your dog , I want my dog to be gutless with no heart and Drive Like your dog ,

Now Ed if you really want my honesty draw me in a hunt , and I will prove to you not all Handlers are created equal , Because I want the best dog to win ,

What is ridiculous is that we haven't corrected this problem in how many years?
Some dogs are trained to be mean and just like with kids the dog that takes the second swing usually gets caught, and a lot of dogs faceback at the aggressive dog, but the real problem is that we are still talking about it and allowing aggressive dogs in the hunts and still breeding the sorry SOBs. Some of the most dominant treedog reproducers of the past were also aggressive, but after decades of selection we should have eliminated the problem. Does your hound look like a wolf? Then it shouldn't act like one!

What an interesting number of differing opinions. For me it is pretty simple.

Any dog that shows unnecessary aggression so as to have the tree all to themselves, is in my opinion, mean and should not be entered, and (if entered) should be scratched.

Any dog that exhibits aggression in order to stay treed with the above mentioned dog, should not be scratched, and should be allowed to continue until said dog exhibits undue aggression with any other dog in said cast. After undue aggression has been identified any/all dogs should then be scratched.

Now determining which dog crossed that said line of undue aggression, is most times very hard to identify.

But for someone to type on a post that they want theirs to be the last dog standing when the fight breaks out, is a pretty true reflection of the mentality of that owner/handler. That person respects very few (if any) opponents in their travels, and their dog is a cut of the same cloth so to speak.

Without respect for our common man and beast, we have very little left to be proud of. So if that is your game, own it proudly, just don't expect the general public to be knocking your door down to breed to your dog or hunt something out of it.

Let me say this, I too want my dog to stay on any tree so long as it can do so without receiving a (SERIOUS) injury. But there are some dogs being hunted that are truly nasty and would rather fight another dog than fight the coon they were bred to tree. If you hunt that style dog, don't cry when you do get scratched. If your dog will tree Politely until something else grabs it, then this post is not directed toward you. Now lets just see where you and your style dog fits into this equation. Good Hunting to all and the best of luck to all this coming weekend!!!

Comp hunts are a very small part of my program. They are the off season for me and a way to get into the woods in the summer and to see other hunters. Rough dogs, strong dogs what ever you want to call them do not serve a purpose in hunting. The only place a rough dog could possibly be helpful is cheating in a competition.
As for my hounds, they have All the heart and drive you could stuff into a 50 pound dog. They will tree a coon, bay bear, make coyote wish he could climb, but they don't feel the need to bite another dog. These dogs have been selected or bred for these qualities. Rough dogs do show up but are quickly weeded out.
If I had to hunt against people like you and win ,I would then have to select or breed for the biggest roughest hounds and spend my time light training them. You would then be as sick of me as others are of "strong" dogs.

I got a mean one and love it. That sucker will tear up a bowl of feed like there's no tomorrow. There won't be anything left. Not one bite. Kind of a big wieney in the woods though. Likes to back up on the tree if another dog is mean. He will be circling the tree barking up. But he don't leave.

Need to give them mean/ill headed dogs a shot of hot lead. That will stop them.
