Ears

I know (in my head at least lol) that cur dogs down here with a longer bigger ear and the set and type of ear I like tend to have a better nose and bigger bottom as a general rule than that of a cur dog down here with a higher shorter more bulldog type earset and I believe that is because just that I believe the smaller eared dogs tend to have more bulldog in their lineage and the longer larger eared dogs have more hound in theirs.This is only my own observation and opinion based on dogs I've either owned or hunted with but it could all be in my head too.
