Take it as a lesson learned.

Just because you claim to have dogs that do both doesn't mean they are good at doing both. While I dont own two styles of dogs, I can see why some would want to. Why is it viewed so negatively that someone would own some cleaner running hounds to hunt over than the dogs they trial? I have judged wa...

Just keep in mind that field trialing is suppose to be fun, so keep the ego at home.

For those who are familiar with different formats, UBGF, Deep South, PBGA, Midwest and so forth , what format do you think is the easiest to breed for ? The PBGA in my opinion requires a good medium speed to a step above, hound with gears, close check work, with good line control, ( big over-runs w...

$150 pups are still out there. Price sometimes depends on where the pups going. I have a breeding planned of which most of the pups will be free because they are going to guys that I KNOW will care for them and hunt them. If I were to sell any and Joe Blow from Idaho wanted one, the price is $750.

I miss him too. I would come on everyday to see if he posted any more pics or vids.

It depends on which format, region and registry you compete in. I like Better Beagling because it covers the style of hounds I run, in the area I run, in AKC which I run. I also get Hounds and Hunting because some of the clubs I participate in trials at advertise there and it has good articles.

My guess: Ninja bred, sired by Sidehill Keuka Blue

A friend and I bought littermate pups at 8 weeks old. At the time of purchase they were the same size. At 6 months mine was alot bigger. His could almost walk under mine. At 2 years old both were measured at 14 3/4 inches.

I have been enjoying that as well.

Midwest is not a format. They hold trials under the SPO format. If your question is, what federation promotes hounds that are a step slower than midwest?, I would say NEBGF.

I voted 6 as I believe this is the case with all of us.

The Roxie pup looks like she belongs here in my kennel.

Then you misunderstood me. I didn't mean that the dogs know what a win is. We are in agreement on what makes a good dog.
