Re: drahthaar for bear
Back in the 80s, I met the German fellow that brought the first PP into the US. It was in Palmdale, CA. But I can't remember his name. I was running bears back then but they were using them more on birds.

Re: drahthaar for bear
I have 8 pups here now that just turned 9 weeks old. They are half GWP and half hound. I will be raising them and training them here, they will be running fur and big game. Mother is a GWP that handles anything from birds to furbearer and the father is hound used for bear and hogs here in NC. This was just a breeding I always wanted to do for myself, and will keep all the pups here for my own use.

Re: drahthaar for bear
I have a drahthaar that learned to track on bears. Every morning, from 3 months to 7 months, I got him on a fresh bear track that had been laid that night. He sight chased his first bear at 3.5 months and treed his first bear at 4 months. The entire time, he's shown to be a patient low head tracker that pushes the pace when appropriate. I even got him on a few lions and converted one to chase.
When he was sent to a buddy to prep for his vjp (the spring natural ability test for puppies), he was run daily for months on jackrabbits and cottontails. When I got him back, I sort of laid off the bears but put him on a lion almost every week. It was evident pretty quick that the months of bunny work gave him an advanced education in tracking. While a bear leaves the scent trail of a trash truck, the bunnies don't and the can leave scent gaps and disappear easily. He was much more focused on the lion scent trail and did a fantastic job of piecing together the trail.
I found this site because I was interested in adding a couple of hounds and piecing together a dry ground lion pack.
