GAUGING A HOUND

[HLC_Kennel]

THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT.YOU'RE ABSOLUTLEY RIGHT,I SHOULD HAVE TRIED THE DOG.I JUST WISH SOMEHOW WE COULD ALL USE THE SAME SCALE.ON A SCALE OF 1 TO 10 A 2 SHOULD BE A 2,A 6 SHOULD BE A 6,9 SHOULD STILL BE A 9,NO MATTER WHAT KIND OF DOGS THEY HAVE.THE SCALE SHOULD STILL BE THE SAME.IT BEGINS @ 1 AND ENDS @ 10.NO MORE NUMBERS EXIST IN THIS SCALE.THATS WHY I SAY,IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE OF DOGS,PLEASE ASK A VET.MOST WILL ALWAYS BE MORE THAN GLAD TO HELP.(A VETERAN BEAGLER)

I want to know what is a 6?? Or what is a 9??? I mean come on guys we all see it differently. My Moe hound to me is a good 7 speed right now, but I can take him down to Kentucky and others might see him as a 5 or a 6. It all depends on what you run. I wouldn't blame the previous owner, you should always see the dog run first.
