The cowdogs I have been around do have a great handle on them because the cowboys who work them for a living will not put up with anything less. Most Plotts really do not have a interest in cows but I have heard of a few people who have put them on cows.
The problems we have faced in the past & they were all cur dogs were baying up dairy cows in a pond & I had a friend whose dogs ran some cows thru a fence. I dont care how nice a farmer is, just one of those incidents & you will not be welcome back. We hunt a lot of Dairy country & also out in the marsh where we hunt, there are cows. I have nothing but respect for a well trained cowdog or any dog for that matter that has a handle on it.
The man was asking opinions & I gave him mine, just like yall gave him yours.
Yes sir, for sure. After a few hours to think about it, I re read my words, and I'm sorry they easily come across kinda rude instead of truthful and respectful like I was trying for. My apologies.
