Color question

Post by Moonshiner »

If I were to breed my bluetick male to a bloodhound, what colors could I expect to see when the pups are born.
Thanks

color in hounds

Post by jimmylee »

They should all be solid color the first generation if the bloodhound is all
bloodhound.but if the blue dog is a gason and all blue you can get all
black.

bloodhound crosses

Post by jimmylee »

bloodhound crosses make good rig and road dogs because they usely
are winders or drifters.thats because most bloodhounds hunt by body
scent.

thats what ive heard, and thats why ive been interested in getting some pups outta my Blue, hes a good dog, he just needs to earn his bones, before I let him cover any female.
My Blue has the ability to pick up a drifting scent an also a a track. Currently im working on makin sure my "pups" get broken off deer, Im positive once i can break them off deer I will have excellent hounds.
Theres folks out near me that breed Bloods, but I think they might be show quality, not hunters.

There's to many people breeding bloodhounds that no nothing about hounds yet alone bloodhounds.A good bloodhound will have grit and
if put in a tight spot will fight to the end.they should have drive and
should be able to locate game on the ground and in the tree.
