Ryan,let me rattle my brain a lil and shed some info on how Fred,Oscar,and Luna are bred. Jill's (their dam) daddy was a dog named Blue Duck that belonged to a guy by the name of Clay Hurst from Springer Ok. I dont know how he was bred but i was always told cat & something. I only got to hunt with Blue Duck a handful of times but he was just a great dog. The kind of dog that you only see every once in a while. Just a dog that everyone dreams of having one day. Jill's mom was a dog named Kate that belonged to Joe Day from Howe Tx. She was 1/2 Plott, 1/4 Cur, 1/4 Greyhound. I hunted with her for several years and she was also a pretty good dog. Now their daddy was a dog that i got from a dog trader from Paris Tx named Brother. I bought him for 500 dollars. He was a black & tan cat. First time we took him huntin we caught a pile of hogs. Well i thought that was a pretty good deal, hell he hunted good, bayed good, & caught when the bulldogs got there. The more i hunted him seemed like the worse he got. He started barking on track,trashing on deer & yotes. I couldnt break him so i quit huntin him. Had a friend just gettin started hog doggin & he took him and put him in the woods 4 to 5 times a week and made him a pretty decent dog. He got run over by a car in Oklahoma chasin a big boar hog across a hwy. Thats all i know about their pedigree. It was a accidental breeding between them and i gave Jimmy Creed 4 of those pups and kept 2. From what i was told by Jimmy that all 4 of his made good dogs and you got the only one left. I know Oscar and Luna are pretty good but not anywhere close to their momma & grandpa.Wish i would have kept the whole litter now. Them dogs are 5 years old now and Oscar gets better everytime we kick out. Hope this sheds a lil light on their pedigree.
