EAST TEXAS HOG DOGGERS FORUM

Hey guys I have two walkers that are baying good the male is hunting a Lil bit they are 10 mo old and not ruff at all do Yall think that will change ??? And wood Yall breed a ab to the walkers??

walkers are great hog dogs just how they are, if they fit your boots then hunt them. they are only 10 months so give them some time to grow. i had a young gyp that i found that didnt turn on till she was grey in the face.

patience young padawan

O they are going I wish they wood bay closer that ten foot lol

like i said they are young, keep working with them, soon they will be real gritty and then you gonna be worried about them being straight catch rolleyes

Hounds start later and last longer.

Don't tell them yellow ppl that lol hounds are the best this will start it up lmbo

Yeah bro, your completely right, hounds are the best.






Now if only hogs could climb. :/

No, seriously though. Knowing nothing about your hounds I would say as an educated guess, that becuase neither tree hounds nor American bulldogs are traditionally known for speed, I wouldn't bother that cross.

Ture what bout plott walker that sounds wide open lol

Or a good ruff curr

i wouldnt cross them at all, ive ran every hound and best hound ive had my hands on was a july that looked like a greyhound on a flat field

plotts are really good and i can point you to some great guys on here that will x2 that claim

Yes for sure. Two thumbs up on the plotts.

Walkers are not known for grit, but thats not to say that there all like that but as a whole they are not. Thats why most, not all but most big game hunters that prefer grit use plotts. I have seen gritty and non gritty in them all.
    And if anyone has any doubt, just go to the coast of NC and get on a mean fighting bear and see which ones hit the road first. Seen it plenty of times.
     If you want grit, why not breed them to a good cur?

Heath i had 1 that started loose and ended up in their face with age.....i was tellin james the other day that he was the best hogdog i ever owned bar none......damn snake got him.....way before his time!!......i'd bet they get rougher with age.

I'll second the 'take you time' advice you've been given. If these dogs are only 10 months old and barely started, thinking about what to breed them with is so far down the list that it doesn't even make it on the list....! Enjoy hunting your Walkers and watching them progress into whatever they're going to be as dogs. You have the rest of your life to be concerned about breeding them. Good luck.

THey are ten months old. Wait a few years to breed them. Make sure they are worth breeding first.

Enough said !!!!!!!!!!!!!

cut, paste, print and put it above your bed my friend! i like you already 8)

i have used a few walker x pit and they where some damn good go find a hog and hold it in its tracks dogs but they where very rough

I did not mean breed now I am going to wait

Heath I have seen some real rough hounds now that being said, every man has to figure out what he likes whether it is a no hog catching hound or a scat ahoula or a parker or what ever. If we all agree it would be to a dog that produces and does what we want. Heck a man name Darrel had a blue heeler that would run beside four wheeler all day and if they run across hogs that sucker could keep one bayed. But it is each to thier own. I use to hate a mouthy dog. Now I got a couple that barks. Does it make the hogs run any more, I dont know are hogs run forever anyway. You have to have something that will stay with it.
