Yea she’d be considered an F1.  Parents were a registered working catahoula and a high dollar coon hound, accidental breeding. She’s almost 6 now and is part of my original dogs. In comparison to what everyone else on here has shes probly not worth #2. But she’s the best I have. She’s loose bay, semi open on track, enough bottom for me....but lazy in no sign.  She’s bayed plenty of hogs for me and made me a happy fella a lot of times...but she is a magnet to my feet most days unless the track is smoking. I feel like a portion of That May be my fault because I trained her myself by showing hogs in pens and walking her into fresh sign cause I didn’t have a started dog to work her with. Im fortunate to have large blocks to hunt where if the dogs don’t have some drive, 90% of your time will be spend being a dog yourself and finding the hogs for the dogs. I’m just tired of that. I’ve tried to get my hands on some seed stock that suited my environments, with no success but dang sure not from lack of effort.  That’s why I decided to make this cross in attempt to get a dog that was a little more quiet on track, would cover plenty of ground, and add a little more grit.  The GSPs I’ve hunted with have done everything to pointed hogs with no bark to acting like straight catch dogs.  No idea what traits will dominate in thes cross. I’ve been hog hunting 20+ years, but only had my own pack for 6. Still learning about all of the factors that go into the right breed, this site has been a great tool.
Hoped to make it to uncle earls later this month to talk dogs and maybe pick up a few younguns to try. With kung fu flu having everyone scared, not sure if that’ll happen now.
