I have been hog hunting my whole life and had my own dogs 10 or so years now. Most of my family has been hog huntin for generations so I has some pretty fair dogs handed to me to work with when I started my own pack. My yard looks like a rainbow with all the different breeds and colors now but all are hog dogs. I have decided to use a half plott half catahoula LONG range male and a pretty lounge range catahoula female as my foundation. Both dogs have tons of hunt lots of bottom and a fair amount of grit. I have a full catahoula pup out of the catahoula gyp and his sire to mix in if need be down the road that are both proven dogs. Any pointers on how tight they can be breed and culling pups and when to out cross or just any pointers

Two words CULL HARD!!! Don't put any pups in anyones hands that won't hold them to a high standard and cull them if they lack what it takes. After your first couple litters you can see what made what you want and line them back up with dogs closely related and half mates is not too close in my opinion but the mother/son, farther/daughter stuff I would stay away from.

I talked to Jimmy about this same thing last year and he gave me some pretty good advice on this, it's a lot to try and type on here for me but I would go to him if I were you

This is one you have to try out to know. Some lines of dogs can be bred closer than others. Inbreeding does not cause the issues. That is a myth. The issues were already there. Inbreeding just brings them out so it is able to be seen. So the dogs that have the issues are the culls. If you use them you will be locking that stuff in to your line. Use the dogs that come out clean (meaning no health issues and good workers for what you want). |
