Mr Harold Mosh, formerly of Livingston, TX created his line of hunting Pits in the early 1950's. While there was not a hog explosion at the time, Mr Mosh and his son Ricky used the Mosh bred dogs as hunting dogs for many species of game. The dogs exhibited tremendous drive, lots of heart, good temperaments with humans and other dogs, and were a pleasant line to be around. Lacking the huge heads and shorter legs that are present in modern strains of Pitt Bulls, Mosh bred dogs carried good bone, length of leg, and had sufficient wind power to hunt loose. To say they were able to be trash broken could not be stated, as Mr Mosh used his dogs on all game, from rabbits to deer. They were true hunting dogs, and Mr Mosh was known to hunt them both singularly and in small packs. Unfortunately, Mr Mosh passed away in the early 1980's, and Ricky Mosh was tragically lost in a vehicle accident in 1989. Since then, the true Mosh bred pits have been more or less lost to the wave of modern bred pit bull dogs today. There are some Mosh bred dogs left, but the line has not been kept pure since Mr Mosh passed away. Once he was gone, Ricky was known to use outside influence, and was even rumored to have used some AB as well as YBMC to diversify the line to more specialized forms of hunting.
Dang, yall had me going with the Mosh Pits. I thought you were talking about catch dogs.
