Plan to bring this pedigree over some time this week if it is not already on this site. Cheers
I know the of the dog your speaking of CJ. The young man that has the Joseph dog is some what new to dogs , anyway about 3yrs back he had a son of the Joseph dog he took back from a friend and he was given the dog away so I contacted him about the male who I believe had quarter Jeep x Redboy out and he brought the male here and he was a beautiful dog, I put him on a empty chain to see how he acted around the other dogs and he acting good. Well I took him off to talk to this young man and finalize the deal, well my son and his friends were coming up the drive and the male went ape shit at them like he was trying to get a dog!! Well need less to stay I declined to take the dog. Any way my plan was to see if the dog was gonna work and possibly cross him into our base stock of blood and figured it s a whole lot cheaper to start with a 17 month old free prospect, the thing with those Colby dogs is the attract a lot of newibes and get them and over night become Colby breeders and the Colby dogs get watered down to show stock more or lees, not saying this is case with the Joseph dogs owner but with the majority. That last decent Colby bred dog I saw was about 14 years ago and eventually pulled up but he made it farther than most. But I do believe if one can find it in true working form it will help a program.
