...on the ancestry of your new hound? This is your forum. Post your question and others will fill in the blanks for you. This is also a good forum for asking about particular hounds and bloodlines (past or present) when considering a breeding or purchase, or just breeding questions in general.

Solo, a lot of us have SOME Top Dog breeding but not many have heavy Top Dog lines. John Otruba has some out your way, as does Sonny Underwood. If you want it up close you'll almost have to talk to some of the guys from Nova Scotia and the other Maritime provinces. It's pretty hard to find now though as most guys don't want to part with what they've got. I've got a grandson of Top Dog who's finished and he's 10 so Top Dog himself is farther back in the pedigrees every year. I'll be making a cross this spring that will double up on him but I still wouldn't call it strong Top Dog breeding.
