All this breeding and trying to create or recreate the perfect dog with blood lines and whatknot is hard on my simple mind. I take what I can get. I work with it and get everything I can out of it. I don't run long range dogs. Medium at best for me. Now if long range was what I wanted i would put the dogs that weren't ranging close with those that do and try to find a pair that would buddy up. I would let the long range dog teach the other to keep going. If the shorter ranged dog didn't pick it up I move on or hunt the dog in the fashion it hunts. I can't afford to go thru dogs so I try hard to perfect my eye when sizing up a dog. It also don't hurt to have low standards.
