I purchased a pair of mens FIRE HOSE BRIAR PANTS from Duluth trading company. I'm really pleased with the fit and wear. They were pricey at $50 bucks or so, but I wear them a lot.

I run leopard cur. They can range on out when hunting with go yonder dog, but hunt around 200 to 30 yards when by themselves. I hunt coons so it's a little different. LOL my game goes up a tree

great reading here.
I've made several crosses like your wanting or asking to do and tighter. Just make sure they are what you want ( hunt'n style, drive etc..) Your going to have better luck when breeding good hunt'n dogs together whether it's line breeding, inbreeding or outcrossing one in. The cross will work fine for you. Hopefully you'll produce like dogs. You may have a throw back or two out of the litter, but it should tighten up your line. Remember this will bring out the good traits that your looking for and enhance them, but if you have any bad traits that you dont like it could enhance them too. Good luck and keep us posted...
again goooood reading

If you would like a pup to take and train then I can hook you up with one. I've got an American leopard cur male pup 15 weeks old. He's black and tan in color. He'll have a chop mouth. You can run anything you want with him. He'll be free all I ask is that you hunt him hard and keep me posted.

I like it.... Mine is just a 4x4 box inside a old goat shed set on concrete. 28" tall with a square cut door opening in front. No side door, but I really like the side door thinking. I had a 6" lip on the bottom of the door to hold the pups in. I ended up putting a ramp on the outside because when the pups got to 4 weeks old they began to climb out. The ramp just made it easier for them to go back in box. I used a regular heat lamp with a 60 watt light bulb and it made it plenty warm. I also just hung a little fabric over the door to help hold in the heat.
again good job. Looks great.

I am researching by asking someone posting and starting a thread with knowledge of an interesting breed . II'm curious , since they came with the settlers, where are the purebred examples of the breed here in the new world? Were the pure lines diluted over time? I suspect thats what happened.
dilute. I think so then transformed into new breeds. I think a combination of things happened as the conquest was happening. Both French and Spain settled the coast lines and inland. Battles won and lost against the natives, themselves, as they moved conquered and colonized. Then trades for goods, spices and animals for gold as they began to settle these areas and then send gold and goods back the Kings. Trades such as the mustang horse brought native Americans, like the plains Indians, down to Mexico area for trading. This could have spread the old world breeds with the native American dog. But I bet Mother nature took a hold as the war dogs bred native dogs. I would think the same with the guard dogs running with herding dogs. Some old writings talk about the landrace breed and it's importance to the new world. Not just dogs, but other stock. Landrace dogs may be something for you to look into too. Gotta remember we had wild game that these war dogs, guard dogs and herding dogs never seen before. Funny too how a "mastiff" covered a wide verity of dogs. Same with the old world hounds or hunting dogs. good little thread you got going. mike

there were more than just the Alaunts. There were other types breeds. Guard dogs like the Spanish mastiff and herding dogs like the El Pastor Leones (Carea Leones) Types of greyhounds and a few others. Some real good history on Spanish and French during the conquest and settlements. Carea leones could be the link to a lot of leopard dogs in early America. As they settled, colonized and built Missions across the gulf states and then moved inland they brought hogs, sheep, cattle and horses along with guard and herding dogs. the Spanish really push across South America, Mexico toward California. Some neat history about the Basque and the Basque shepherds and how they pushed 1000's of sheep from Texas to Oregon and Washington state. McNab like the Basque shepherd so much it was crossed on to his collies to come up with the McNab Shepherd. I think that was right at 1800 when that happened. Old world dogs crossing with new world dogs and indian dogs made from some neat stuff out there...
