Guess I need to better explain myself.  The dogs in talking about are & have been bread and raised in the Lee, Milam, Burleson co area for a long time!  They were not always on a line breading program it was more breed the best to the best breeding.  My uncle who is now 66 can take these dogs back to his grandfather and been raising the same dogs for over 125 yrs.  These dogs have some east Texas also, Hutton, Havernd, and others!  No they are not true yellows!  Most of the litters are 50/50 yellow brindle!  They do have a little hound, and I'm sure mt curr, and possibly a little cat in them.   Some more that have contributed to these dogs are Dobelly, Woodward, Morton!  They have the ability to hunt & or work stock all day in the extreme heat!   I'm not trying to say anything more than there are yellows that can do it all!   I am not a big fan of yellow, I'll take a brindle first any day, but facts are facts! They have been doing these jobs for many years... Hope I didn't offend anyone!
