  1. I said best on otter.She is too big for small places like groundhog or small coon.although she will not stop trying.
  2. My dad a retired jag man told me the same thing. I asked this question on y'all's side hoping for different opinion.? All my terriers are from one stud.What I refer to as my family was from breeding stud to mother then best daughter to him took male from this and bred to his mother ECT ECT
  3. I was sent a white bitch who I tested thoroughly.She had the jacket of a Lakeland and a top knot like a beddie.She was very close to perfect in my eyes and I tried everything to prove my blackens was better.She would not try for dispatch she would catch the quarry with her mouth to neutralize it and would bark out of the side of her mouth.At 10 year old I bred her to my foundation male.The best otter Hunter I have ever seen came from this and the ugliest. This bitch is about to finish her fifth season.She has 3 layers to her jacket which is useful in rivers in winter.She is the best

  5. Waz you just solved the problem with all working canines in USA.All canines here are judged by a few individual feats They should be judged by number of hard seasons worked.
  6. Also know some sled dog people in Alaska that my dad flew up to.They offer two week camp where you basically help them train for Iditarod.I have their card and this is my dream?
  7. I am in southern part of America.Where the hills meet the swamps and rivers.I know a few dogmen scattered across the country.If I could be of help just let me know.
  8. The law's are done by each state for each species.So really depends on your chosen quarry.Coons hogs coyote groundhog possum beaver are open year around in my area.Other areas are totally different. Exactly ?
  9. I dug out a few old pictures.They are 15-20 year old from a disposable camera so poor quality.It is another form of terrier work in America.Thought y'all might enjoy them. Most hogs were taken live handcuffs hold them well but my dad made hobbles that worked good.I have been to the woods with hundreds of so called breeds of hog dogs and hunted with one of the founding members of American bulldog.When your legging a hog you must trust the dog holding it.The only ones I trusted were apbt.
  10. I have personally seen a coyote bitch lure a coondog away.He could handle his own though but was jumped by two males.This coonhound weighed eighty pounds
  11. Understood. the antis have been chasing the houndmen the last few year.I know some hog hunters who ended up in handcuffs.it is guilty until proven innocent no matter what a piece of paper says.
  12. Nice Dropbox.They use the same here. I mostly walked alone with a runner.I tried some of these lurchers on whitetail deer as there is places here to run deer with dogs.I never was successful as our Fields are generally small but it made my heart pump to watch a deer run so fast that they belly appeared to touch the ground.Their body would appear 8 ft long ?
  13. Nice pic.In Dixie there is no Fields as big as the Midwest states have.So several get away but it works the same.
  14. Mounted coyote hunts are starting to frown on lurchers here too.I learned a lot from the English houndsman but honestly I couldn't understand the Irishman and he couldn't understand me as I speak southern (record player dragging accent) But he was happy to send me what I needed.I will always be grateful to these men.When I got out of lurchers I sent the best one to the drunk banker lady.She is still catching coyotes with him.
  15. 1of1 breed your redboy dog to greyhound bitch.They are also fun for catching bolts. The mounted hunt packs I have been with was for coyote no digging. 15 couple hounds roughly.Once hounds put enough heat on coyote he will cut across open field that's when they radio for 4x4 lurcher truck driven by drunk banker lady. She will get close and release lurchers.From what I seen they must be at least a quarter bull.thats from what I've seen.
  16. There are hundreds everywhere but they are smart.you cannot kiss them in like fox here.they usually sleep in culvert or briar patch.I know an Englishman and an Irishman who moved here when UK laws changed.They brought their hounds and lurchers.They are what we call master of hounds in charge of a hunt for rich men.This is where I received my lurchers.I asked for one and was gifted several.They ride horses in a suit and holler tally ho.I love it but can't afford hounds lurchers horses and thousands of acres.
  17. Mr King a predator call lamp and bull lurcher is fun but you can't call a coyote twice generally.
  18. Mr Hoosier You are correct.The terriers I have seen get attacked was by 2 yearling males weighing roughly 30 lbs apiece usually.they can stretch a terrier fast this way.I have always assumed they have been kicked from pack and looking for easy meal.But coyotes are afraid of shovels ?
  19. Otter is the same here.otters have 2-5Mile range in winter 10+ in summer.Is that how badger are?
  20. Mr Dilly American otter and American badger are the same as far as being nomadic from what I know from someone who has chased both.But otters overtake beaver sets for residence.Me and daughter call these places castles.As you say they drift.For the first few years I thought the same of otter as I had no success other than keeping me in shape.After chasing 4 families over 300 miles of river I did see patterns emerge from generation to generation.With the aid of Google Earth and maps and markers.chasing otter isn't like going to have a dig for coon or fox.Its a battle of wits that takes a l
  21. Thanks mr glyn, I'm sticking with the same plan that's been working.No need for me to reinvent the wheel.But they ain't coming black in colour no more.I took a pup on a trip to feed store and the man asked me what I could hunt with a chocolate popsicle.
