HOLLINGSWORTH DOGS

[Officially Retired]

He is an awesome looking dog. I've noticed all your Buck/Hollingsworth dogs look like perfect specimens. Since these Gaston bred dogs have similar ancestors why does it seem to show up mostly in this line?

In a word: Selection.

Exactly. I believe Gaston did well with the Buck dogs he had around him, but I liked the confirmation on grand champion yellowbuck better and went and bought a dog out of mayday bred to yellowbuck cold sister Blondie rom. I then bred Macha to champion 357 who was a perfect confirmation as well as killing deadgame throat dog. What did I get... Machobuck, a mayday bodied Buck ability assassin in the throat.

I totally agree. I would say the dogs are being selected on their performance, not their looks. But the defects seem to be typical with these dogs and not nearly as prevalent in other lines. I was wondering where it started from since the base of this line is well structured Hollingsworth and Buck dogs.

That was going to be my one word answer too.

Does anybody know what the traits of the Hollingsworth dogs were as far as combat style? I know they were hella game, bulletproof durable, & very good looking, but did they like the head, the leg, the stifle, etc.? Did they bite hard? Or were they a bunch of different styles depending on the individual dog? I know E.J. didn't match his animals, so I was just curious if anybody knew what those dogs were like in the box.
