have you ever thought that maybe there would be a increase of 40%
from people that would go because they wouldn't have to run against a
oversized hound. if everyone followed the rules at hand there would be
no need in having a bad guy. the only bad guy would be the one bringing
the oversized hound.

my first trip to the world and i was amazed by the size of the dogs. i have some good size hounds not over 15"s but good size and they looked like pups up against some that i seen. i ask a couple of guys i know and they told me if you want to compete you have to have them. so that tells me they brin...

sounds like a really good idea. its hard to find a good stud dog sometimes.
what i would like to see is what the stud dog is producing in past litters.

I DON'T KNOW IF YOU COULD GET IT DONE BUT IT WOULD BE GREAT FOR

sanfordssj, sure would be nice to do this, you could just use self feeders. the hounds that i have would look like basketballs with legs. i have tried this, but only get to run on the weekend so they don't get much excercise. there for they are feed once a day from 1/2lb to a pound. it suits them be...

i guess the only way to find out is to take the same hounds and run both quarries. myself i haven't run the hare but have run lots of swampers. i can only imagine that running in two to four inches of water trying to scent a trail with as much speed as possible and then swimming around or thru the d...

i have four pens all on dirt with three dogs to each kennel. i do have problems with dogs fighting at times to get more than there share of feed. i made up several chains about 2' long with clips on both sides so i can hook up the rowdy ones. out of the four pens i have three hounds that like to sha...
