About my dogs and my breeding program.

    In 1986 I moved to New Mexico from north Missouri and not realizing they had quail here I had sold my bird dogs. When I realized we had a lot of quail here I started trying to get a hold of some dogs that would work here. This country is tough on a dog as it is dry and rocky. I struggled for a few years ordering a lot of pups that did not have what it takes for this area. Here is takes a dog with a lot of nose and brains enough to use it. Plus they have to be tough to stand the heat and terrain. Also I found that a dog that works good here has to be light on its feet as a large dog that hits the ground hard does not hold up well.

    Another thing I had to have was a dog that keeps track of me while hunting hard which is very difficult to find in a world where a lot of emphasis is placed on field trial bloodlines. Also I looked for dogs that would hunt dead and liked to retrieve. Add to this that I am a fanatic on a classy dog with a straight tail in the eleven to twelve o’clock range, preferably eleven thirty. Well I have finally started achieving this in the last ten years. Intelligence and nose has been a big factor in building the strain of dogs I now have. I have been very selective in the dogs I keep for breeding purposes to where now we achieve a very high percentage of our puppies making good bird dogs. The bottom line is if a dog can make it here it can go anywhere and be a bird dog. Nuff said    

The Scarfaced Bootlegger (Troubles)

     Here is a dog I raised a couple of years ago out of The Grumpy ole Bootlegger. He has made one of the nicest all around bird dogs I have ever had. He is very intelligent, has a lot of nose and knows how to use it. Is very stylish in moving and on point. He is the easiest handling dog I have ever had. He hunts medium to open depending on the country but the best part is I never have to say any thing to him. He keeps track of me and if I change directions he will soon be in front of me hunting his heart out. I have bred him to five different females and he has produced outstanding pups out of every one. Many of them have his same characteristics. They love people and want to hunt for them. He loves to retrieve and seems to be passing this on. I have some young females out of him that are spectacular that you will be hearing about soon.

This is (Southern Wild Turkey) better known as Turk a new addition to my stud dog line up

 

I am always looking for my type of dog to use in my breeding program to cross on to. A friend of mine in Kansas who has a couple of my dogs and knows what I am looking for alerted me to this cross which parelells the dogs that have worked out good for me in this tough southwest climate and terrain. When I contacted the man who raised this litter Turk was out of they were already sold but a couple of weeks later he called me that a man in Louisiana who had second pick on the males was getting a divorce and if he had someone interested to let them have his pick and that is how I got Turk. He is a young dog but you would think he is three or four years old the way he handles birds. He has an outstanding nose and will point singles farther than any dog I have hunted with and he is rock solid on point even if you are shooting at other birds being pointed around him. I will be using him on the Scarfaced Bootlegger females and vice versa. He is darn sure bred right for a foot hunting dog as his pedigree will show. I will have some puppies out of him later in 08.

Quinela’s Happy Hour called “Quinella”

       Is one of the best females I have owned. I raised her out of my old Niccie’s White Wine female who has been the foundation of most of my dogs. I came across Nickie after I had bought the pup I called Whiskey Creek Hook. Hook made such and impression on me I went after Nickie. I had to buy a mule off the man to get the dog but it has turned out to be one of the best deals I ever made. Quinela’s sire was a dog I was impressed by called Elhew Chapparal. This was an outstanding cross as about every one of these pups not only made a bird dog but an outstanding dog. Quinella is a hard hunter that has the nose and brains to handle these running gamble quail. She is tuff tuff tuff.

Here is one of the females in my breeding program that has produced some very outstanding puppies.

     

She is a very attractive moving dog with a lot of point bred in her. She was a very natural retriever and loved to hunt dead which has bred on down in my dogs. Nickies White Wine is her name and she is just like good wine the older she gets the better she gets.Below is her Pedigree and you can see why she is such a good producer

Texas Elhew Showman

   

Texas Elhew Showman is a great bird dog out of the old Hook dog and a female out of the old Elhew Chaparral dog, which also was a great dog. Joe Davis in Texas owns this dog and he keeps nothing but the best. Clyde is his call name and he was born easy to handle and a genius at working running birds. His nose is as good as they get and he darn sure has the brains to use it to full advantage. As you can see he has plenty of style on point. As he is one of the last out of ole Hook, I am glad to get some pups out of him to be bred to Troubles later.

Bootlegger Nikie

Here is Bootlegger’s Nickie, she is direct out of my old Nickies White Wine female and Troubles.  She will be bred to Hank to have some females to come back on Troubles with.  Little Nickie has one of the greatest noses I have seen.  She was pointing pigeons solid forty and fifty feet away at ten weeks old.  Handles the very best and would back as far as she could see a dog at four months. She is Classy, Classy, Classy.
