When I was a young man I drove through several states to buy 4 young dogs that needed starting but were slobber mouth tree dogs on a caged coon…when I got there I can’t say I liked his type of dogs but the price was right…
Well I should have known…he had an emergency and couldn’t be there…a couple of his hunting buddies were there waiting on me…while I was there thy gave me another that was awesome to look at and his sire was a well known world champion…
I made the trip back with 5 young dogs and two months later I culled them all…
Everyone has what your looking for…until you are looking at the dog or trying it out…
Once I was needing a female to be in the fifty to 55 pound range when grown…the picture was that of a beautiful female of good size…at delivery I called a buddy if he wanted here because a full size she weighed just under 27 pounds…
Breeding my own has been the best option…and that’s after I have found the right dogs to hunt, keep and breed…
