I buried my best buddy, a 14.5 year old yellow lab "Dually" a month or so ago. I think I'm ready for a new friend to help me watch over my family and homestead.
I'm leaning towards a black mouth cur or similar. I live on 7.5 acres, and have other pets, horses etc, perfect for a dog of that type to socialize and be part of the family. Probably also train him/her as an all-around hunter to fetch dove, track hogs, coons, squirrels etc. Not looking for anything too extreme or world class in the hunting skills, just a smart dogs nose and abilities to "hunt" with me and my daughters. Family dog qualities are first, the rest is a bonus.
Anyone have any good breeder referrals in North Texas or east Texas area?
