Only difference in temperament is that my ridgeback will kill whatever we catch. Other than that she thinks she is a lap dog, a 70 lbs one at that. hahahaha

Where the dogs rides is a big factor too. No more big dogs in the cab of my truck ever again. They are almost as bad in a working trapline boat. Terriers are a nice size if they're riding with you.

The minority view here but the last thing I want is a dog that's nuts crazy about killing what I have in a trap. Spend half the day trying to get him/her off critters "IT" wants to pursue. No thanks.

Hahahahahaha!! Mine ride in the cab most of the time on the trapline, unless were looking for scat, and scent posts. When I take a horse though, they will ride in the trailer.

I know some of the Airedale are of a big bloodline some are smaller. Can’t help but think a smaller Airedale jyp and a jagdterrier would make a good 40# to 45# decoy dog.

My Airedale/jagdt is 43 lbs, perfect sized terrier in my opinion for decoying, she's a pistol.

She's good when at home but all business while hunting or checking traps, I didn't want a straight jagdt because of just that I wanted her to be a little more laid back, it worked out.

I was told by a breeder she more than likely came out of odon corrs bloodline. Her mom was in the upper 70s and saw a pic of her grand pa he was 120.lbs lol a straight up brute!! id say my dog will be in the 70lb range . So far shes not very gritty! Shes happy baying until they try to escape then shes ready for business. I don't care if she don't want to fight. I'd rather her be a tracking dog versus a kill dog! But at just a year the scales can tip any direction.

I've watched her chase 4 coyotes from the property before I had her trained and anytime one went for her she would just bounce off the back of another one. We had a chat and got that under control.

I have a cur/jack-dale who comes from Corr lines and a cur/Plott. Both great dogs in their own way. I can honestly say once I started using dogs, I have yet to lose a poorly hit coyote. My red one has some kind of pathological hatred of badgers. Both dogs weigh in at about 50 lbs. I wouldn't want any bigger.

I just wanted to thank everyone who has provided their experiences w/ different dogs on the trapline. I've been reading and taking in everyone's stories & have have learned a lot. I think I'll go w/ a cur, either BMC or Mountain Cur. I'll be running 100+ traps on 30,000 acres Jan-March so hopefully I can get a pup by mid Sept & it'll get plenty of action.

Thanks,
Brandon McDonald

She’s actually a really well-behaved smart dog. She just nuts up when she gets around badgers. I have no idea why. She can get a little aggressive with coyotes but doesn’t exhibit that blind hatred. If a coyote in a trap shows submission by laying down or looking away she just investigates. One bouncing around gets more interest. Aggressive ones she will mix it up with but not quite the intensity as with the screaming weasels.

Mr. McDonald, good luck in your hunt for a trapping buddy.

So far my little jagd is turning out to be my little buddy, but I think he is too small to use around coyotes . Maybe one in a trap as long as he don’t get under one, lol my hands may not be strong enough anymore to grab a coyote by the scruff and pull them apart. Lol You guys are making me think I should have gotten one of Fergy’s cur pups !

The pups arrived yesterday afternoon. Took about 3 hours for all 13 to get here. Haven't looked at male/female ratio yet, will try to get some pics later.
