What do u call a super cold nose dog, like how many hours it's different for every one I call a super cold nose dog one that takes it 20 + hours and were do u hunt that will help know more what u r looking for.

Well I'll give this a try. For the walkers, the strain that seems to be pretty cold are Finley River, Joe House's Clint, Tom-Tom, and Lipper, the Hardwood Bozo dogs, Spring Creek Rock, Lone Pine, and I personally couldn't get enough of Johnson's Banjo ( lots of luck) The English dogs it would have to be Ed Bates' Hard Time Speck, Roland Dickey's Junior line, Doug Watson's Meeks John and Karshners Tina, Eugene Boyd's Little Joe, Leroy Penneys Kojak and Crank, Berton Oney's Sam and Bawly, Lightfoot Bruno and the Lightfoot hounds. The red dogs???? You plott guys it would have to be Dwayne Smith from Vt and Danny Luke from Hoosik Falls,NY. If you have not heard of them you have had your head in the sand For the blue dogs I would have to go with Sugarcreek,Smokey River, Vaughn, Sabastain, Utchman, and Minnisink Valley. OH!!! Then we have the Arizona dry ground dogs. They come from a different planet A small percentage of their owners would like you to believe that any of the above dogs couldn't cut it in Arizona. But we all know if we could follow the paper trail some of these hounds , and maybe alot of them would show up. This being said out of all the pups produced from all of the above hounds probably 35% were culls, 55% of them were fair to midlin, and 10% were as good as mommy and daddy. hopefully mom and dad were worth a hoot. (another story) I think the reason you ask this question was for possibly purchasing a pup or hound. Just remember because you are spending your hard earned cash doesn't justify allowing someone to lie to you so that it makes you feel better about spending it. So, if someone tells you that all their stuff walks on water run as fast as you can. and remind yourself that no matter what color or what kind of game they run and tree there is a reason these hounds can demand 4 figure prices. It's because very few of them make truly top hounds

liontt, i looked this up on a real old topic it may help you at least get an idea of certain blood lines. but you will still have alot of leg work to find what your lookong for. good luck!

John Ray bred blues. Not only nose but speed to catch. I've had blues all my life bout every strain out there these r Wut I feed. I've seen some cold nosed walkers of my buddies.
If ya got something u'd like to compare them to load em up in jump in the truck well go huntin that way they can speak for themselves n I don't have to.

That question is hard to answer. Somtimes it just takes a dog with more "go" to hunt bare ground. These dogs come from proven crosses most of the time. I dont want any dogs that can start a 3 day old track. You will be wore out along with your dogs before anything is in the tree. Find you a pup from someone who hunts dry ground if thats what you want to do. Also the weather has a lot to do with this. I remember a time where I put a Jeff Allen dog and a dog that belonged to Randy Cooper (treed) on A lion kill and they could only move that track a little bit. track being a couple hours old. It was just too warm out. I had that same Jeff Allen dog run a track and an Ollie Barney dog not touch it until later on. And NO WAY am I about to say Ollie's dogs aint dry ground. Now if did manage to get a dog from someone like Warner Glen, Mike leanard or Larry hendrix, that doesnt mean you will be able to make something out of it either. help me out Mike!
