Who has it?
I'm trying to find a stud/male dog with the following qualities in the order of importance to me as listed. I know in the past I have had disagreements with people on describing dogs to me and not getting what I thought they described.Looking back on it I don't think they were lying but what they called one thing was totally different than what I defined it as,therefore I will define what I call each topic.
1: independence/ defined to me as a dog that will absolutely not cover no matter what,not talking about a dog that gets split treed some,but a dog that if you turn three dogs loose on hot track,he goes opposite,split all night style of dog,completely deaf
2.hardgoing: define to me as a dog that hustles the entire night,he doesn't have to go a mile every drop because that means nothing to me,but I'm talking about a dog that hunts a patch of woods out hard and quick,and then keeps moving out,getting a mile or further if need be but not passing up coons in the process,,,and this definition is by himself only,if he does this with 3 other dogs only and won't do it by himself then my definition of hard going doesn't apply. I will also add that he should be a high end strike dog,while everything is peeing on bushes he should be out 500 yards struck ,I think hard going dogs should mean quick strike dogs due to hustle and heart
3.accuracy: definition to me is looking at coons only,circle trees and den trees are considered slick to me,I know there are circumstances where u won't be able to shine a tree due to undergrowth etc.but in my experience I've climbed enough dens and shined enough circles to take my chances and bet they are slick,,,if I was betting I would win most of the time.
4.track driving: definition to me is whatever track they strike they move it quick,don't bark in the same place twice, and are exciting to listen to,don't want to fall asleep listening to one work a track,don't mind striking a bad track but want them to get it up and moving quick,don't care if they are hot,cold, or medium nose,just want whatever kind of track they struck,to have it up and running quick.
5: nice tree dog: define to me as they can stand off the tree,squat on butt,have two front feet on tree,bawl,chop,,etc:just no chewing,jumping,face barking,jacking the tree,don't have to be hundred barks a minute,all though the harder the better,but a good steady bark,stay put no matter what,also no bumping trees all over the woods,must be a one bark pull the trigger style tree dog
6.mouth: definition to me is prefer a bawl or squall on track,good locate and nice steady chop on tree,this is just what I prefer but if the dog has the other characteristics I'm looking for, I'm open to different kinds of mouths.
7.straight:definition to me is one that was born fairly straight messed with junk when younger but corrected himself as hunted or was corrected with minimal training,and being older very few problems and could turn into a pack full of coyote dogs and not join in
8.kennel manners: define to me as quiet in pen most of the time with exception such as feeding,and absolutely no craping in feed bowl,water bowl,smearing it all over kennel,dog house etc,crap in one place type of dog,
9. No shyness: define to me as no cowering down or having a hard time getting your hands on it,dont mind human interaction,don't have to be completely hard headed but can take medium correction.
10:looks: define to me as a blocker type head,not loaded with tan,fine hair,and darker tan,don't prefer dew claws but can live with that and white to I it was the right dog,could actually live with any kind of looks if it had all the other qualities I was looking for.
11:no meanness: define to me as I don't want a dog to back off a tree if a rough dog is around,not quit treeing,don't mind backing off few feet to try and stay out of trouble but hold tree and get ugly if have to,no face barking or jockeying for position,in other words,don't ever start anything or antagonize other dogs,but stand up for yourself if need be
Looking for a dog that is throwing this in his pups,bloodline doesn't matter and open to non pr black dogs,don't care if he has 10 pups or 500 pups as long as he was bred to some different females with the MAJORITY as good results. Looking for something that throws natural early starters. I think I should only have to do minimal correction and the only real training I have to do is dropping the tailgate,if I have to man make I'm not interested. I know I probably can't get all my wants and I'm definitely open to giving on the last 6-10, but I'm pretty firm on the first 5.please let me know what u have,if I need to clarify further feel free to let me know,thanks!
