My hounds are heavy spring creek rock in them, they are good gamey dogs that get the job done for me. They have plenty of nose, grit and heart, they seem to have a trait about them that they want please you. They do not walk on water or any of the cool things some of these guys want to say that there dogs can, but they do catch game if given the chance.

It seems to me the trait of wanting to please is something i see alot in the Finley River dogs. I think with the right cross they are still some of the best trail and tree dogs out there. There are a lot of outcrosses and some of the bloodlines are getting dated. jmho.

Yeah pushed as hunters for sure.. I would be curious to how those pups turn out.. It's old blood.. I like old blood... Best of luck with them..

Now I am going to go out on a limb here, but with the "show" dogs that hunt, I am going to guess they start a little later.. Just saying that because I think they are pushed as show dogs first and then once they have accomplished what they want with them, they get put out in the woods.. Just my guess..

just for the record finley river nite hawk was one hell of a good dog and a reproducer of hunting dogs. I personally spent quite a few nites in the woods with him and pups out of him. one of the better bear dogs i ever hunted with was a pup i owned out of him.
