Hey Steve, You ever done any work with Blue Lacys? They are part Coyote, part Greyhound, and part Scent Hound. Fast, with plenty of grit, and train easily...... Most of the Walkers down here are Coon Dogs, and there are plenty of them, along with Black & Tans and Blue Ticks. Not too many July Hounds, so I'm looking for a source for some pups off proven stock that are used on Coyotes, and will not hesitate to engage Coyotes...... Bounties are good in quite a few counties, as they are hitting sheep and goat ranchers hard...... I've been hunting Wild Hogs for many years, and they must be taken alive to sell, and they are only bringing 50 cents a pound on the hoof for ones 250 pounds and over, smaller ones quite a bit less, they are hard on Dogs, and I'm getting too old to wrestle them. We can't just stick them like the Aussies do down under, then take it to a Cooler..... I've tried both Calling and Calling with a Decoy Dog, but it's hasn't been productive enough so far, once one knows what Dogs can do in pursuit of any prey. The problem isn't getting Coyotes to come in, but the terrain limits the number of good shoot opportunities...... On the Walkers you running, did you create a good line of Coyote Dogs by line breeding and hard culling? Have you ever run them in the south or southwest, or sold any to someone that runs them in the south or southwest, as temps. here are a lot warmer than in the New England states? The Hog Dogs I run can go all year, even summer, if you run them a few hours before dawn, and load up by 9:00 A.M...... Post or e-mail me about your Hounds, and when you will have some pups, so I'll have a better idea of what you have there. Mainly interested in a good nose, speed, and plenty of grit to engage a Coyote or multiple Coyotes. I've also read some post, and heard of Dogs that bay up Coyotes, and although it's not what I would expect, after years of running rough Hog Dogs, if it works, I'd like to hear about it. Thanks for your time and trouble.
