My cur has a 1/2 in tear from the bottom or the ear towards the middle of it, been trying cut heal and super glue, don't know if i should just keep trying the glue which seems to work a day or two or anyone else know how to get ears to heal and stop bleeding?

I have a diplomait in nutrition and can give you several options in great detail if you want some really good cost effective cures send me a pm with your # and I will help all I can. For basic advise you are better off getting your dog loaded up on minerals previous to hunting him,(2-3 days and the day of your hunt minimum) I like horse dex salt (gatorade for horses)-makes em drink more h2o, and apple cider vinegar, and banannas, or raw eggs and there shell, more than pedialite, but they all are decent,and a combo wouldnt be a bad idea.

The main problem with heat stroke is a most commonly a mineral defeciancy. The the second is a vit F. defeciancy, When you get sun light it causes/activates vitamin d to move the minerals in your gut to your blood stream for muscle use, then vitamin F then takes it from your blood stream and puts them into your soft tissue and muscles. A break down at any part of this causes heat stroke, not enough water causes the the blood to get thick and coagulated making this process harder on the body. don't give your dogs or yourselves synthetic store bought vitamins they make this worse whole food nutrition or whole food pills are the only answer.

Glad to hear i am not the only one I have had horribble luck lately, my dogs that were trash broke have been looking for cows lately 

FYI bob cox goes by yellowdog on this forum has and currently breeds the tightest weatherford ben bmc's money can buy. He has the papers on all the dogs, can tell you all the history, the regeions they come from to tell if the papers are false or someone is b.s. ing you etc. John Wayne Ross the man who you send your papers into to register curs with is currently on yellowdogs waiting list for his next litter b/c when he Mr Ross registered yellowdogs last litter he said it was the tightest, best, line breeding he has seen in quite some time, and insisted on getting a pup from him. He doesn't advertize on this board to sell his pups simply b/c he doesnt have to, they go pretty quick at $500 a peice, but he will go out of his way to help anyone and his dogs have insane work ethic, even when they don't know what there hunting for as young 8-9 mo old dogs (bob starts em late) they are out 800 yards, i have personally witnessed this with severel of his pups, typically a good bit of grit as well on hogs or rank cattle. Not trying to kiss his butt however if any of yall are interested they are the real deal-get in line for one cause theres a wait.

My buddy Russell has axcess to some pups that just hit the ground i think both parents are parker curs or high percentage any wase. Russell 214 668 4217 tell him Grant says howdy

I have been using the branco, it helps but i wish there was something better, it also takes alot of consistancy   Try ordering those bugs that stop the breeding cycle of flys and don't effect anything else, gundogsupply.com is where i got mine last year(i think) it worked great i need to order again.

Did the dog bring it to you alive in its mouth?? my buddies brought one back alive a month back about that size we thought it was weird he didn't kill it!? Just curious.....

My freind jj has a good ridgeback cow dog that he found and won't mess with hogs but runs cattle in and out of pins all day he only wants like a 100-150 for it. not sure how rough havent seen him work personally but he is a big (120lbs) rowdy dog. If interested send a pm and i will get you his number.

My freind says he has one because it has a longer snout like a aligator and it and its puppies do have a different look than a regular pit. kind of like the difference b/w a bully breed vs the american vs the real small game bred ones, they are more popular around lousiana i have noticed but never heard of a man charging more for one, its prob just due to whatever long snouted spud mckenzie dog they crossed in its blood lines a while back I would never pay more for one, these back yard breeders need to cull

It is cocsiddia or however you spell it guaranteed, I have had it in two pups and heard of the same thin with severel freinds. Its from them eating their own number 2, or more commonly bird crap from them eating there food. You can get ALBON at the feed store and fixes it right up, the easiest kind is the kind you get for chickens to mix in the water. Its bad stuff get on it asap!

Try giving her cod liver oil and possibly magnesium- helps with allergies and skin.  defiantly add in the magnesium if she acts like she is frequently pooping but nothin comes. It doesn't sound like poor nutrition b/c it is generally bigger areas than what you said and they scratch it a modest amount but if so you would want to get em on some cheap minerals or buy expensive dog food, even if none of your other dogs eating the same food are not having the problem.

You should wait until there hormones have had long enough to develop around 9-12 mo. on avg. especially if you want them for any work after they are developed they should go back to working just like they were before- i have seen it a handfull of times in my cd's it never effected them- However i have heard it makes them gain wait, I personally think it just means i feed them less.

contact mccoy on this board he has some ridgeback cd's that can run. I think he said he was going to thin down or I have a rcd for 200

hoghunterdfw's dogo is a catching machine I heard his brother uses his nose like a hound and catches. It is still alot of money for a cd no matter what, I just like the breed and they are great with my little girl ( my mom doesn't give me hell about having a pit with a 3 year old) so the price is worth it to me until they get gutted and i curse spending mor than a 100 on any cd. I have seen dogos who strike but then bay, or one that is just solid cd but not much hunt- not to say they will never strike one but not 500 yards out week after week. if yall know of one tell me i will by it ( raw pups need to prove themselves and be started a bit for $1,000). From the 2 i have owned vs. the avg. american bulldog the dogo did have alot more lung/stamina which only made a difference very few times after the bay broke and they were caught a mile away but it did save her life twice.   Mulemans argument could be made for the AB vs. the pit as well . Most abs i am around were sold for $500 compared to a 50-100$ pit. ?? who knows but the above posts made some great points - good job muleman on bringing up a good topic. Does your ab sound like a bus while on lead, a prissy point to make is that dogos seem to druel less and breathe more quiet in generel and $500 to a grand is alot of money for a damn catch dog no matter the breed.

THANK YOU fighting snakes is worth getting the swine virus to me. I saw some good tracks in the bottoms but timed it wrong i guess.  An agriculture major told me the weather messed up all the wheat this year and thats why they aren't in it as much as usual. Who knows thanks again

I have been on a month of mostly dry runs at least 3 out of 4 hunts- not been in the bottoms or wheat feilds for me any advice on what terrain yall are having luck in. So much water has taken away my good spots on the rivers and to many snakes in the bottoms- corn or what?? is working for yall?
Thanks

I have a black mouth pup i don't have time for you can have 10wks

On severel hunting dog websites u can order these bugs that have no side effects on the dogs or grass etc that eat the fly larva and in one or two breeding cycles there wont be any more flys-for 10 dogs a year supply is about 100 bucks- if you can't find any send me a pm and i will give you company i use- its popular with horses as well--welcome aboard

Great point pig snatcher--it is every hunter that uses dogs problem PERIOD! why can't some people see that-if the breeding needs an up-grade hunters need to start shooting culls not relying on the government!!

I do agree not enough of us do enough but if a ph. # is posted or an email is available I defiantly voice my opinion despite not showing up at the capital buildings. I am sick of liberals making laws against us and getting rid of laws that protect the family. This isn't europe dammitt lets stab some hogs

To Hell with these heterosexually challenged loving liberals. They think giving up their freedom for their safety is the only option--and like in all socialist and communist countries you can see the horrible results.

Everyone please google : new world order and click on bible prophecy then read it and watch the video at the bottom titled obama.

our freedoms are slowly being taken we live in Texas who cares if I chain out a dog or don't microchip it--they will be enforceing the microchip on our children next--start praying
