This is another dog whos true pedigree is supposed to be this one below in the pedigree , its patricks tombstone .
The reasons as to why this is more than likely the true pedigree i will try to explain, and the first thing is that don maloney had a deal with earl tudor that any pups out of earls pure females like baby he was supposed to tell him about before dealing them out to anyone without earls say so, and as such if tombstone was out of baby then don maloney would have been in trouble from earl and earl known that maloney had dealth tombstone to ron petronelli wihtout him being told about it.
Another reason is that don mayfield always felt that tombstone was out of one of earls pure bitches that maloney had on his yard as explained above but was never able to completely get the truth out of maloney to be sure and as such he never bred tombstone into his dogs ,but he felt sure tombstone wasnt out of the bitch speedy allens jena .Don had something like 400 plus audio tapes that he had from his telephone conversations with dogmen like maloney and many others from those years , including earl tudor and carver etc etc , and althoguh i only have a mere handfull of thsoe audios tapes , i do have around 15 of them which include such rarities as conversations with earl tudor and carver and don maloney , where don is talking to maloney about the tombstone dog he got from ron petronelli who originally got the dog from don maloney, and in the conversation maloney seems to slip up and tell don mayfield that tombstone is out of the same dam as his nigger dog , which is baby , which to don made more sense to him as tombstone showed to be a very famly bred dog , not just in his gamness but in his subsequent proudcing abilty later on for pat patrick , to whom he later sold tombstone .Well in the same conversation maloney then catches himself and says to mayfield that tombstone is out of the jena bitch, but eventhough don was sure he wasnt out of her but out of baby , he didnt want ot take the chance to breed him into his line just incase it was true as he didnt want any part of the jena bitch in his line ,so he later sold him to pat patrick with the option that he had breeding rights to the dog ,he dint tell patrick this , but it was incase he was able to prove 100% that tombstone was out of baby and could then breed to him at a later stage if he wanted to.
Years later and on another telephone conversation , from a man who don didnt know and was from arkansas i think , he memtioned to don about tombstone, and that at the time that tombstone was supposed to be whelped out of gena this man told don she was on another mans yard and could in no way have been whelping tombstone on don maloneys yard , and of course confirming dons gut feeling of how tombstone was truly bred but of course it was many years too late .
I wish and hope i could still get more of those audio tapes, as they are the jewels that are really worth having , and although i like many other have all his video tapes also, the audios where he talks to these other dogmen recording them so as to have a record of their conversations ,so as in the case of tombstone to try to get to the truth on many things especially true breedings etc , and with earl he would take his tape recorder down to earls place and earl was happy to talk with don and those audios are like goldust for anyone in the dogs to learn and understand more about the game and the men who played it in those years that we all look back at as the golden generation of the game when tudor was still alive and breeding through to mayfield maloney carver burton and many more great characters and dogmen of the game, and i hope i can get more of those audios , i would like them all , but im happy to have the ones i do have as even in these few i have theres some of the most interesting conversations, two of which i have mentioned in this post about the true pedigree of patricks tombstone and i hope you enjoyed it regardless of whether you believe this pedigree is the true one or the one maloney put on tombstone .
