Conditioned Cur

[Nextlevel]

in the midwest there is a bull dog named charlie brown who went out on 4 successful [] hog hunts at least. But the way he hunts always leaves the opinion that he is just a conditioned cur which imo some dogmen can win the hog hunts with a hound that the next man couldnt. why would that classify the hound as a cur ?

[OGDOGG]

If he won 4, sounds like the losers are hating. A win is a win and they couldn't prove he was a cur.

Haters will always hate. I imagine they aren't very eager to prove their point? I can respect a man that talk down a dog only to prove he is right. But the ones that always talks down dogs without any interest in proving their point aren't worth the air you breath. And who cares what they say? The dog is a 4xer. That means he was atleast game enough to bring home the bacon not one, but 4 times..

Has he quit?

[R2L]

well good conditioning could assist in preventing the dog from running hot(fast), not much more.
if the dog has never quit and wins his matches i would be more then happy to feed it.
ofc everyone can ruin a dog by stupid actions but im not that much of a believer in "magic hands" when it comes to gameness

He has not quit he won 4 in the midwest then was sold to some guys down south and won 2 more. (i just verified this) imo the ability to stay out of trouble from the hog is smart not cur.

How long where it's hunts? Any info on how he acted during it's hunts? As R2L said wouldn't mind feeding it.

[FarmersChoice]

look at how many curs lost after being a champion it happens ... a dog that is smart dont mean its a cur though

[ResidentKennel]

It's hard enough to win one, let alone six. If he hasn't loss his status as a cur is yet to be determined regardless of his style.

Ultimately, it depends on what you want to feed and like. Even if the dog is a winner, it boils down to how many faults you, as the owner, can live with. I have seen a few dogs that won 3 and 4 that I simply wouldn't feed after I was done showing them. Hell, they may not have even made it that far at my house simply due to the fact I don't like particular actions.

Dogs that make every bad move in the book and win are winning dogs, but would I breed to one of those or feed it any longer than I had to do so? Hell no. I've fed a dog or two some years ago that did that kind of thing, and ultimately, at this stage, I simply can't stomach that kind of thing any longer than necessary. So, before everyone goes on about they'd be glad to feed dogs that win 2, 3, or 4, take into consideration what it is you may actually be feeding. Curs don't have to quit to be curs. I don't know if the dog mentioned in this thread is being "hated" on or not, but I know the truth is out there if someone wants to find out for themselves.
