Looks like a good breeding Big Easy. Got a call from C. Crews about a month ago and had a great chat. He is in good health, said he still had a couple of dogs but no longer active. No longer lives in the Charleston area.
Wished that R. Williams would talk with some of you younger Red Boy fans. He could tell you a lot about the most important Red Boy dogs that Katie had. He bought and bred to some of Katie's best dogs. Helped her with some of the schooling and breeding of her dogs. Williams' (Truett's Prince X Red Boy crosses) produced some good show dogs. Williams did well with those dogs, he did very private shows and many of his shows were never reported. Pee Dee Kennels used some of those Truett's Prince x Red Boy crosses also.
R. Williams has Diabetes real bad and will not talk anything about the dogs except from those he personally knew way back. So you have two good dog men I know personally, that bred good dogs back there in your dog's background. Another was D. Holcomb he and C. Cooke were a lively two that loved the dog game. Cooke may not be in your dogs pedigree, but liked the Jocko/Red boy dogs as well. Cheers
I don't know R. Williams, but I can tell you that most of my redboy stock are black dogs. They all come from the same area...

Run a 14 generation search on this breeding. Will get some interesting results. Bass' Cleo bitch was a black dog. I showed a solid black bitch years back that was owned by Louis Miles. That bitch was a straight Red Boy x Cleo bitch. Louis Mile's Bouncer was a full sibling brother to Red Boy and was a tiger brindle colored dog.
A dog man that lived not far from Bass, had a yard of young dogs bred off Bass' Red Boy x Cleo. Some were black, some where brindle/red brindle and some red /red nose dogs. I no longer remember his name. I might be wrong, thinking maybe Rowell's Fancy was obtained from this dog man. Rowell's Fancy was a red /red nose female dog. Cheers
CYJ... You will really like this one. http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum...p?dog_id=47398
Hell I Really like that one!
Thanks, S_B. He will only be bred to what's on the yard. CYJ said it best "PRIVATE"Hell I Really like that one!
Ditto BigEazy. I knew all these dog men and women personally. Lost contact with some over the years. Some have passed on. One being Mr. M. Gainey. Some of R. Williams' dogs were black and white. Especially those bred off the Truett's Prince dog that was formerly owned by Middleton. You can see how some of those R. Williams' dogs look over on the on lines pedigree site.
I plan to learn how to move pics from that site to ours. Some Pictures from over there I want to bring over. R.Williams' had some nice looking dogs and took excellent care of them.
R. Williams' knew all of those main Red Boy dogs of Katie's on a first hand bases. Was a close friend of Katie and knew which dogs were the over all best dogs. Cheers

Thanks for the info... It's more where this come from. I'm just glad I met the right people early in my career. My dad always had dogs. I guess you can say, It's in my blood...
