Ray Nelson Hounds

Postby ddigger » Fri Nov 15, 2019 8:26 pm

Hi, I was wondering if anyone can help me. I am looking for hounds bred by Ray Nelson or lines from his hounds. He was my uncle and a lion hunter for the government that started his own breed of dogs. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance.

If you do a search here on his name, names will come up who might know something. You can send them a PM and hopefully they will find it.

I never met him and I don’t know of any of his dogs. But his name is familiar to me and maybe to most of us on here. There were a few people in my life who recommended him to me as perhaps the most reliable source for a good cat dog. The fact that his lion dogs were equally good on bobcat is rare.

I don’t want to discourage you in your search, but I have watched multiple times that when a breeder dies, his dogs quickly change and sometimes become nothing like they were when he was still the guardian over all the breeding decisions.

Good luck. We wish you the best.
