  1. Here is another this size. Yes, they are commonly this big. These are not trophy wolves to my knowledge.
  2. I dont know if for food or not but they have slaughtered entire packs of bear dogs. Anybody that talks about dogs takin them is smokin the good shit. It takes about a 70 pound dog to take a coyote single handed and most the time two of them, a good coyote anyhow. What would it take two 200 plus pound dogs to take one of these wolves. What dog has the speed, stamina, courage to do such a thing. None! Them wolves would have a dog mortally wounded in seconds and then could just turn on whatever is left and do the same.
  3. WHAT THE f**k Just puttin up some pics for all to see what their dogs would be tryin to tackle. These wolves were killed 10 minutes from UphillDocs place.
  4. Just think a fox weighs 15 pounds and a coyote weighs 30. Single handed coyote dogs are very rare. These wolves generally run between 120 and 150 pounds on average with the big males sometimes weighin in at 175 pounds. I think they may do some damage to a dog.
  5. Just havin a bit of fun but here are the wolves that we are discussing about takin with dogs. It aint happening gents.
  6. The july hounds are a breed but they do come a little different lookin depending on the strain. Some have a little longer hair than others and obvioulsy come in different shades and colors just like walker dogs do or even your english foxhounds or welsh hounds or what not. I care very very little about breed or strain or looks though so to me it dont matter. I am not very loyal when it comes to that stuff.
  7. Bosun11, I think you nailed it. I wouldnt want this cross either if I hunted the way alot of yall do. I dont really think there would be alot of purpose to it nor do I think I would risk the chance of having one "yap" but where I live and what I hunt, it has and will work out just fine.
  8. I have 3 coyote hound male dogs but probably only need two but if one would get wrecked or hurt what would I do. I have 3 staghounds that are able to take game now. Well, really only 2 adults and one bitch is gonna have pups in a week so that aint good and the other gyp is only about 10 months old and I would say she just started yesterday for real. I have one coyote hound female pup and 2 staghound pups. A male and a female. So, all together I have 9 dogs. The pups of course are worthless but I need them here in a year or so. The young gyp is worthless really as of now and the bitch ha
  9. I usually catch between 20 and 25 a year so far but broke my record this year now with 27 and I think 50 catches a year is not out of the picture now. I just about got the game figured out and it is gettin easier.
  10. A few pics of the late evening coyote. They very rarely go to ground if at all. They do not have the same habits of a fox but this one got run into this culvert. He should have stayed there. LOL!
  11. The two in the back of the truck are july foxhounds but they really are kind of bred more to be coyote hounds over the years. The big yella dog was given to me by a good friend. No bull in him but I cannot take any credit for what he is at all. I got him that way and he does his job right. I got bored sittin at home so I had to go back out last evening caught another one.
  12. I'm sorry for being a smart ass. The last thread I was involved int kind of has me a bit pissy. Anyhow, the two dogs in the back of my pickup are July hounds. They flush and big yella dispatches.
  13. aint no breed, just stags they "do the business" if they are good ones
  14. By the way, the last two pics is the same yote but just different angles.
  15. Took the dogs out and took a couple yotes today.
  16. Hi Dan, I agree with what your saying. I've seen stags do that on a coyote before but only cause they'd caught a pile already and were just too tired to finish it. Most kills are quick grabs no fooling around. The best dog I ever saw was a very hard coldblood bitch she was all business. Her canines were all broken but she would get that throat hold and kill em with badbreath and gums in no time flat. she made the others look like ameteurs. all the best Dirtwinger post 50 you say if a dog shakes or tears its a fault they should only pin,post 67 i have no plans to hunt coyotes, post 75 a
  17. I bet some of them good deerhoundxgreyhound crosses would be just as good as our good stags are. We got some pretty shitty stags here too ya know. There aint no way in hell I will ever try to convince anybody that we got the market cornered on great dogs cause there aint an ounce of truth to it. We got way more shit eaters that we got great ones just like yall do I am sure. You guys take your best bull/greyhound cross and breed it to your best deerhound/greyhound crosses and go back and forth til you got amazing dogs that can take fox without even trying hard and you got yourself the same
  18. Here is a pic of Grace in right spot, where she always was. Good head or throat dogs come that way naturally and one should never ever breed to a dog that is not a natural throat dog if you are gonna catch and kill yotes. There are way too many good stags out there to breed to a shit dog in my opinion.
  19. Uphill had a bullcross gyp and she was as good as any pure Stag at throating a coyote but she lacked in catch power as any bull cross would of course. Coyotes dont duck and dodge dogs like a fox does. They just flat ass out run them. There aint nothing wrong with bull blood though in my opinion. You take a dog like Grace and breed it to a good stag throat dog and you got something worth owning in my opinion not that Grace herself wasnt cause she damn sure was unreal when I was around her. I will throw a pic of her up here for those that never seen her.
  20. I would cull all of them dogs in that photo most likely except for the one on the head and he better be gettin to that throat soon or he would not get another scoop of feed from me. That one biting the ass would not be here. My yellow dog will trip from the back end at times or "bite the ass" but only to get the coyote swung around so he can throat him. Scotts grace gyp was throat dog for sure just like my yellow dog.
  21. This is another coyote but this is what they look like after 3 or 4 minutes. Limp and dispatched properly. I did not raise this dog, he was given to me by a good friend of mine who gets on here. I aint takin any claim that I did any of his training but he lives with me now.
  22. This is what the wolf should have looked like as soon as the dogs caught him. Not that in and out baying shit.
  23. dirtwinger, I dont know you but its obvious you know a little bit about how a wolf or a coyote for that matter acts and how they are taken I would cull every single one of them ass biting tazi things if I was a coyote hunter. Maybe they are fine on hare or fox or whatever but they would never make a coyote dog here. That wolf was not much bigger than some of our bigger coyotes. Looked like that wolf maybe weighed 50 pounds or 60 at best. I would not own a 4 stags that could not pin a 60 pound coyote in a matter of seconds. Two stags should be able to take any 50 or 60 pound coyote or
  24. Not yet anyhow. I didnt mean to come off the wrong way there. I just get pretty pissed at people that tell other people that they will not be successful hunting a certain dog or hunting a certain way. To me hunting is alot of common sense and learning from each experience and getting better at it. I love reading about collie crosses and bull crosses and how great they are at different jobs and I do believe it 100% but when somebody mentions this cross, alot of people start in on how they wont be worth a damn. I say bullshit to that. Foxhounds have a tremendous amount of drive and heart c
  25. I have been around these "type" of dogs when I was younger except they were coonhound blooded. Not as good as the foxhound blood for this purpose. I will be pretty much hunting nothing but staghoundxjuly foxhound crosses in the near future. There is a ton of room for this kind of dog over here to catch game. Alot of potential that I see but most cannot think on their own so it doesnt get done much. I have all the faith in the world in this type of dog and will prove to anybody doubting it that they are wrong. I must say though that I am not a moocher or poacher or whatever you fellas
