Mr.David that’s what I’ve always done waited till they were three unless I liked them and they got hurt before three but never before there second or third cycle guess what I mean to say is I tend to agree with you !! Even if my hounds have never been the caliber of you and Mr.Danny’s dogs!! But I try lol!! Thank you sir for your comment!! I really appreciate it!!

I’ve just always felt a hound would produce more of what they are e/were in their prime. A hounds isn’t supposed to be in their prime til 2.5-3.5 imo. I usually want to keep running them while they’re in their prime.
