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 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.

Curs are really good at this. To the point that trapping should be considered light work. Had a black mouth cur that would do the hokey-pokey if I asked her to and was one of the gamiest dogs I had ever seen. Get a good cur and you will have the gaminess of the decker and intelligence like your rott. While having a better nose than both. I'm John and I approve this message. I've got a catahoula curr/Dorn mix. She's off the chain. A nose better than my lab and drive to help like a starving stow away. 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.

Badgerman that red dog must be half possessed! To want to go toe to toe with a prarie wolverine! Cool pics though! 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.
