Waylon, I would rather have a dog that is great at one thing instead of being decent at all things. I believe it is impossible to breed a dog that is great at all disciplines. As stated before some things that are wanted out of a pen dog is not desirable in a woods dog and certain traits you want in a hog dog may not be what you want in a cowdog. I also think that if you made the breeding you should also find where the pups fit in or work the best. Some will not work out at all but others will be great just maybe not at the discipline you expected. If they don't work as hog dogs then try them on cows if bred for cows and are too rough then put them on hogs. JMO
