your are right about most of what you said...
the grandsire is 1/2 pit 1/2 redbone...which this makes my pups 1/8 of each which is not much...the 4 pups I have are almost identical...and I can't say I have hunted them as I would like but am looking hard...the other brother I did not keep because his coat was a little longer than I like is striking baying hogs...I knew I was going to get better than what I have culled...and will get as good on the next cross...
I saw the grandsire and 4 of his brothers and they all made some sort of hog dog whether it was very catchy or fair amount of hunt...
the next generation will dilute the redbone and pit even more...I like where I am at at this time...I am not going to spend a bunch of money breeding for high percentages of quality dogs and puppies as I once did...but I want to move in that direction...
I could go and get me a another pocohontas plott but and really tighten up quite a bit faster but not interested in that...
of course there will be a higher percentage of culls in the beginning but I am ok with that...
and I am confident that I will have good dogs from this point forward...it just took me quite a few years to get to this point...
