Tell me about the best few that you have ever seen. What "breed" of dogs were they? What made them so dog gone good at what they did? I am only talkin about running and catching. I could care less about run and gun type dogs. I can do that with any coon hound breed or running dog breed. Also, last but not least, where are you from and where were you huntin and what is the terrain like where you hunted these great dogs.

Dan I got my Stag hounds they are still pups but I will let you know how they do here in the High Desert in a year or so ...

Here is the blue one I got.. I named him Blue LOL...



I hope to get out w/ Scott this fall too..

Christian J.

You need to get out with Scott for sure. You will like him a bunch. Type of guy that goes huntin for the fun of it. No other bullshit to deal with, ya know.

Festus was probably the best.. plenty fast, tough, a lot of distance and had a brain. He got kicked in the hip and crippled and then died a couple of years ago. I got him from David Hise and he got him out of Nebraska I think..He looked kind of like a yellow deer hound but I'm not sure how he was bred

He is the second one from the left



Joe was the toughest although Rat is right with him. Joe would take on anything including a lion we caught on the ground one time.. I don't know what breed he was .. maybe some Catahoula or great dane.. not sure. He wasn't the fastest but wasn't too far behind, he ran with alot of heart and would go until he dropped and when he got there he was always on the throat





Poke I still have he is my catch dog. He is real fast and can run in all kinds of terrain.. not the best fighter in the world but good enough. He is just a crossed up hound.. a little hot blood deerhound and cold blood and I've caught a lot coyotes with him.




I have more pictures of them but they are really more suited for the members only section

Good looking dogs Von... Pete E. was telling me about you the other day, would love to come down and run some dogs some day... I plan to do most of my stag hunting off horse back to, been going to a friends to brush up on my horse skills.. Will your horse let you coyotes on it to pack them out?

C.J.

Yeah Pete e. sent me an e-mail about some of them getting together in Idaho I believe it was, if its possible I'm going to try and make it. My brother in law has a ranch up by Jackpot Nevada and I've been wanting to go and do some hunting there so if the timing works out I will be there.. And if your ever down this way let me know...

That gelding that I ride will pack out most anything I'm not sure about the Mules I have maybe, but I don't ride them coyote hunting just when I'm lion hunting up in the rocks.

My best-by the way they are for sale!
