Hi guys, I'm new here and probably going to be ridiculed as I don't use my boy to hunt....yet. I'd love to get him trained and use him on occasion but I'm curious as to what kind of pup he IS.
I went to Houston, Texas to rescue a "Bluetick Hound" and when I got to Houston and picked him up, I quickly realized "This boy ain't no BT"
He is coming up on 6 months of age and just weighed in a 55 pounds (he needs to lose a few pounds) and is a smart damn dog. He's got a pretty deep chest, long lanky legs with huge paws and his head is shaped like a Gascon but looks like he's got Bloodhound facial features.
as a puppy
All of the research I have done online leads me to believe he is a Gascon but I wanted to ask around here first.
Thanks!

Riduculed? Here? Why would anyone think that?
He looks bluetick to me, they make some big 'uns.
You might talk to Steve Morrow or someone and ask concerning the majestics.
What's the .45 for? Is he protecting his dog food?

Oiler coach Bum Phillips when asked why he takes his wife on all the road trips.
Phillips: “Because she is too damn ugly to kiss good-bye.”
Not sure if it's true, just funnier than hell. A been there done that moment.

Re: Help identifying my puppy
Here are some more pics. I'm worried his bottom teeth are growing outwards at an angle too much. I'm probably just paranoid and he'll grow into them hopefully.
I put a stuffed squirrel in the tree.
And his "sisters"

Re: Help identifying my puppy
Pretty sure it is Bluetick... the color and markings indicate a good amount of the Smokey River Diamond Jim stock.. some of those did get a good bit of size. Johnny Knowles old Lucifer was close to 90 lbs... some of the Smokey River Grover hounds were in that size range too.

Re: Help identifying my puppy
History is what you did in the summer the future is what he does in the season. Work on trailing then you'll be ready for that hunting trip. Lots of folks live in a city. Once you get your hounds running you won't let it slow you down.
Here they call em by color hell some will argue a heeler is a bluetick all day. Good luck hope you find a huntin spot

Re: Help identifying my puppy
looks like a bluetick to me shit my bluetick is 106bls and the sire was 103 the dam was 80 so it depends on the bloodline
Re: Help identifying my puppy
Well here the boy is at age 14 months and 105 pounds
Nap time on the couch with his sister
I'm still not sure he's a Bluetick. All of the pics I've looked at lead me to believe he's a Gascon but I'm not sure.
