She was my top prospect at about a year old and had everything it took to get it done and do it right. I screwed up and packed her hard with some real fast dogs last spring and I believe that I scrambled her brain. She was never the same dog and I just lost interest in her and started working hard on my older trial dog and her brother. I have a pup coming in a few weeks and want to remain at 4 dogs...(a pack of 3 and a pup).
Pros-
1. EXTREME hunt - would not be afraid to show you her hunt in the field
2. Not afraid of any brush and will not be at your feet
3. Great foot speed...Lp style
4. Packs great and will contribute to the pack
5. Nice chop mouth
6. Handles good
7. Good Kennel manners
Now for the bad-
1. Very rough on soloing a rabbit- has never been soloed very much and when she was it was not impressive.
2. Will ghost trail, open early, and look around for the other dogs...(what I would consider signs of being packed too much)
3. Barks in box in the truck...I hate it!!!
4. Fights for the front but can't handle it once there
5. Has been shocked off deer three times...could be broke??
Bottom line is....she is a project and I'm done with her!!! I am keeping her brother which has come along well and will be here for awhile. She will probably make a nice hound and has all the tools make a nice one but she needs someone with some patience to get her back to where she was a year ago.
Would like to see someone other than a dog trader get her....From what I saw last year she could be great if she could get everything straightened out in her head.
Here is a better picture of her than the one I had on here
.....she is back up and I put on a better picture of her.
