Cross your blue dog with a holstein hound and then we'll talk about good dogs

Ever seen a holstein cow? Looks like the bovine version of a walker hound.

Personally, we have caught WAY more game with the cold nosed Blue ticks than when we ran the warm nosed walkers and plotts.

I think Blue ticks are great because they are a cold nosed and really gritty breed (compared to the cold nosed red bone that isn't so gritty), a good combo for bears and any big game really.

I prefer the personality of a blue tick over walkers, and like to watch them work a trail and get something going, and they are great around my family/kids, good people dogs.

Some folks like the speed of a Walker over a Blue tick, for me this has never been a issue. If the bear is just that dang fast he is gonna run and run and run, and run, I have ran blueticks and the "faster" walker side by side on a fast little bear, after 6 hours of running it, neither of them caught it. A good cold nosed gritty dog will catch you more game and get more game started and find the tree, it just will, and like I said, speaking from experience here, we ran walkers and plotts for years. Just my worthless two cents, but hey, you asked our opinions, and that is what mine is.

well thanks for giving me your opinion i really appreciate it.

I have Blueticks, Walkers and Plotts. I perfer the Blueticks over the others, they seem to posses all the great traits for a bear dog. A great nose, plenty of speed and all the grit that you need.
