I to believe that what you feed them and how you feed them as pups can have something to do with the way they grow. I learned this through experience.

i dont have aproblem with the over 15 dogs except they just aint my likeing .. i would just sell them i try not to keep nio more than i have to so anything over 15 makes my decisions easier since i do trial some . i like more of a 14 inch hound ..up north they need a bigger dog because of the snow so anythingnover 15 can go be a yankee dog lol.

I agree with just hunting the oversized dogs. My best dog is a little over 15" and I am keeping him ,he too good not to keep. I have several others to trial with. Sadly, they are not as good as him. It is nice having a great L&W male to rabbit hunt with..A friend of mine ,I will not call any names , told me to carry him in my arms to be measured and drop him at the stand and he was sure he would go under 15".He said he has seen people do that. Well they can, I won't. He's a gun dog and I am satisfied with that..I love rabbit hunting for the sake of hearing and seeing good dogs perform.

Don't breed him to a leggy female,nice sturdy 13" still will probably have trouble keeping all the males under 15"

Sale him to a field trialer who gets mad when someone questions the height of the hound, going by the rules.

We ran this evening. 10 month old gyp ran her first track which was a 100 pound rabbit. This male came to me and sit down. Id say he is broke.
