STUNTMAN 552 Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Some pups I'm running on for the season. July /Walker foxhound cross Quote Link to post
neil cooney 10,415 Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Very nice, well reared pups there. Hope they do you proud. Tell us a bit about them, do you make that cross on purpose? ie. does the cross be better than the pure or do you just use the best available? Quote Link to post
STUNTMAN 552 Posted August 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Neil-The foxhound is going through a huge changes in the states. The big packs are mostly like they have been show and tell and rarely do the hounds get to put thier mouths on fur. Allot of the private hunters are going to the "pen raised" hounds that get put in a 100acr-1000acr pen stocked with game and call it hunting. Its getting harder to find good hounds that hunt on the outside thats the way these are bred. I had the bitch and saw this really good july that fought coyotes good and bred them Quote Link to post
neil cooney 10,415 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Thanks Stuntman. A pack I follow over here has American blood mixed through it and they're good hounds. Tell me ,is the Magazine "Full Cry" still going? I used to get it and it was a good read, even if there was a lot of anti terrier remarks made in it. Quote Link to post
Tiff 36 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 yes Full Cry is still being printed Quote Link to post
STUNTMAN 552 Posted August 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Neil that mag has gone from predominately a "tree hound" to cur/fiest mag anymore with no earth work stories except for T.Moritz teckel column. Here in the states allot don’t like/understand earth work and forget running deer!!!!! Holy shite don’t mention that in certain circle you would think you got there wives pregnant lol.

neil cooney 10,415 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 It's nearly 10 years since I got it but it had a bit of everything in it. I used to love the old photos of cowboys hunting jaguar and cougar (lion). There was a fellow wrote on working terriers called Pete Bassani I think. White terriers used mostly on grey fox. But it was for the tales of good hunts on dangerous game that I liked. Quote Link to post
STUNTMAN 552 Posted August 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Pete lives abot 1 hr west of me and is still writing but its an Airdale collum now. I also loved the front covers when they had some mountain lion bayed up on a cliff with a few hounds. If you need a fix here is a good site- http://www.biggamehoundsmen.com/forum/ Quote Link to post
