This post was a no brainer for me at first!  If a cd quits by choice of his own or bays he is a cull IMO.  But, I do believe some cd's take longer to mature.  My 2 cd's started completely different.  My pit pedro caught the first hog he ever saw and will stay caught until his last breath.  But my AB chief took until he was almost 2 yrs old to mature into a finshed cd.  he can hold as good or better than pedro now, but most times he does not have to be broke off.  Just a spat on the nose usually gets him loose.  With that said, if either of my cd's ever let go before I want them to it will be their last time.
  x2, pits jaws wont get hard til theyre 18 months, I see folks livin by cliche and cullin good prospects too young because they are schooled and tested to young, thinkin if a pup wont catch it never will isnt right in my thinkin
