Mike, In the pic. with the Plotts on the hog, The dog on the right with the purple collar is one of those trashy beardogs. She goes back to my breeding so I know she is trashy. lol At first she was not sure about running a hog but did not take her long to get in the thick of things. Those guys love to come down in Feb. because by then, they are tired of being in that cold weather up there. c dunn, I have seen some really good crosses on Plotts x curs.
do you think it matters which way the cross goes? Plott male x cur jip vs. cur male x plott jip. |

I dont think it matters as long as the Plott is strong in the dept. you want to improve. for example, you want nose and maybe more range. I would make sure the Plott you were breeding to would have a cold nose & a hard hunter. Not all Plotts are cold nose or long range. In fact some of them are pretty sorry. lol

do you think it matters which way the cross goes? Plott male x cur jip vs. cur male x plott jip. Not to hijack this post and I'll back what Mr. Mike says about starting with stock that have what traits you want, but I read an article by James Crenshaw the legendary APBT breeder, most don't know but he was a plott man as well and he noted that he took two full litter mates that were plott, a male and female, and did the same with some of his Bulldogs, he crossed a male plott to a female bulldog and vice versa, a male bulldog to a female plott just to see if they were any differences, he stated that the resulting crosses were two different types and styles of dogs even though the parents were from the same gene pools in each of their breeds, there has been some research done that the genetic coding received from each parent plays a part in the development of different parts of the brain, in lay mans terms the sire is responsible for one part of the brain and the dam the other, it gets pretty deep when you research what parts of the brain control what bodily functions and as of now it's a speculation and theory being as there's no hard scientific data to 100% back it up, I know I went into science nerd mode on this but is something I've read into a good bit and something I keep an eye out for just to see how much merit and truth there actually is to this, sorry for the hijack Mr. Mike.... |

I ain't sure if it matters which way like Cajun said I know the crosses we got that are working was out of a catahoula male and plott gyp. I was told by couple different people that they have had best results out of cur male to plott gyp.

That's all that matters is if it works or not, but there's a reason behind everything if one will dig deep enough to find out the science behind, Tommy used to be my tool pusher with H&P and we did some trading and I wound up with two of the cross y'all are talking about, one leapord spotted bobtail that worked well but wasn't anything to write home about but he got shot by an ignorant neighbor who thought he was doing someone a favor when he seen the dogs bunching some yearlings and the other a black coated male that looks like a plott that my father in law more or less commandeered and uses on strictly cattle and he's a really nice dog.... |

Sounds like y'all had heck of a hunt! Congrats!! Sure like the looks of those dogs and nice pics too!! Hoping one day I slow down and get a pup you put up for sale to cross back over some of my plott crosses.
