Old School Hounds!?!

[houndcrzy]

Is there anyone out there raising any BIG old school type of BIG GAME hounds? Im talkin the 90 pounders and up type with cold noses and voices that seem to rattle the mountains! Im gonna start looking at getting a pup or two to add in and this is what im lookin for! If you know of any please shoot me a pm. Thanks

LIONTRACKER IS YOUR MAN.

Thanks Mike! Does he have a website or somewhere I could get his number?

[Mike Leonard]

Just go on the breeds column and pick up his thread and e-mail on this forum he is on it daily. He is a no BS guy and if you go hunting with him you better wear comfortable boots and pack a big lunch. He is more at home up in them high peaks than a mountain billy. LOL!

AWESOME HOUNDS! And I do mean hounds!!!

[gkckak]

you got me psyched up saying that. Makes me think of my 85lb black and tan who has the most amazing bawl I have ever heard.

[houndcrzy]

BEST sound in the world isnt it! I got about a 90 pounder here that about shakes the snow off the pine branches when he CRAAANKS it up!!!

Hound Crazy : Like Mike Said You won't go wrong with Liontracker . Fair ,Honest, No BS ,Straight shooter. If he tells you something you can take it to the bank. Just curious though what is the facination with the BIG HOUNDS????

[houndcrzy]

I guess its just the way they look and sound mainly! I like a dog that will work a cold track slower and steadier as opposed to one that tries to do everything 100 miles an hour and is making loses none stop. I realize thats not related to "size" as much but thats what im after. I love the dogs I have now and there giving me my start but I wanna work towards having a pack of big long eared bawl mouthed lion hounds someday!!!
P.s. I like the way they can wade through the 4 feet of snow we have up here sometimes Lol!

A big old, heavy hound may well be more likely to fall through a four foot snow than a lighter hound, plus a lighter hound is cheaper to feed and may be easier on foot wear than a dog packing weight. Those are just a few things to think about while building a pack of hounds. However, if a guy likes the long eared bawl type hounds then that is what is gonna make him happy................

Good luck,

i am fat and 3/4 deaf so i like the bigger dogs with loud bawls so i can almost keep up and hear them A.K.A my cameron x sugar creek is just what the doctor ordered

Riley Miller has some of the biggest hounds I've ever seen. They leave piles most dogs can't jump over.

[houndcrzy]

Well they'll be big enough i might just have to widdle up some snow shoes for em' Ike
No but seriousy I know what you mean, it seems though alot more often then not, none of the dogs are staying on top of it round here......I just want some that won't get high centered if they hit an aunt hill

Brindle where did your dog come from?

[Brindle]

i got him from a fella in southern utah he has the longest ears i have seen on a bluetick and he sounds like a fog horn when he bawlsnice big houndy hound gritty cold nosed

[houndcrzy]

Thats what im talkin about

[Brindle]

All i can say is he must look good and do something right to be able to run with those growly plotts. because he is the only funny color in the pack love that dog
