Just wondering who ownes or has run with dogs off Moon. He was a Black and Tan, Paycheck bred male owned by Bob Smilowski, Blue Sly Kennels. In Jackson, Mich. What did you think of them????

I have ran/owned alot of the moon dogs before I switched to pp type dogs.

Most that I have are very hard hitting, hard hunting dogs with big coon dog mouths.

moon died last year. I like and run dogs out of moon I live close to you. By Lansing come run with me and see for yourself Bob is an honest guy to deal with. My dog has good foot and a very good nose with an honest mouth he is doing very well for a young dog. Dave

Dave,
Thanks for the reply, and I would love to see your Moon dog!!! I owned and started Moon as a pup. That's where he got his name, Shiawassee Bottom. I sold him to Bob, as I had delt with Bob on several other dogs, and knew he liked the Paycheck line.
I bought a female off Bob last fall out of Moon. One of his last litters. So far I really like her!! I have run her hard lately, and she's getting better. I was just wondering what else was out there out of him. I'll send you a pm. Maybe we can get together for a run.

Robert,
I wish I would have been able to run with some of your Moon dogs. Do you know where they are now?

Yeah I know where there all at.

A couple have been killed buy cars etc.

But there are a couple nice females I had that are still around here.

I had good luck crossing that stuff up with that Duce dog I had.

If you liked hard hitting big males that was a good mix.

Duce is owned buy a buddy of mine ( Mike Popour) he lives in Canton.

If you ever want to Run with him just let me know I'll give you his number.

just let me know glad to run with you anytime I can

Sir I owned a Black and Ta nmale named Blue Sly Ace of Spades now owned by John Davis. He was out of Moon and McCutcheon's Eastview Belle. He is a Grand on Bench and has I think four wins in Champ class. When I purchasd him he was trialed a little and since then he was not trialed at all till John got him from Ferrell Smith which purchasd him from me. He is a med. fast to fast, hard hunt for a male, and can flat pound a rabbit. If he lacks anything it would be a snow nose, but he won some of his trials on snow down here in Indiana. He is probably only around 5 now maybe coming 6 and he is the real deal, and as straight as the ycould come as far as trash. Even had trouble getting him to run a tame rabbit. You can contact John I think he even at first had trouble getting him to run a hare at first I guess he never had ran one before or maybe didn't have the nose to run one. He could tell you more he is a heck of a nice guy and from my talking experoences with him will tell you the real deal.


Thanks Ken Asbury
