Famous Dogmen

I won't be around in another 25 more then likely.But you have to put Carver in there with those guys.Its just amazing all the great dogs he was associated with.

 

I know some who still refer to there dogs as tudor/williams

 

when speaking to fb he said that theres alot of famous dogmen thay only had one or two dogs that made them known. he said he had over 20 dogs that were foudation dogs. i said yeah look a t bud,bullyson etc. fb said yeah t bud put mexico on the map.

 

A bloodline has to be line bred on a certain dog or a certain few dogs. Like take garner for example. He breeds a lot of dogs (obviously) but just because he's the breeder doesn't make it a bloodline cause he uses a lot of different bloodlines like bolio, Eli, chinaman, redboy, ect. All these dogs aren't garner bloodline. Same way with carver. To have a carver dog doesn't mean it's a bloodline but simply that he was responsible for the dogs in it. I think he went more by the best to best method. Like the banjo stuff. Some people consider them carver dogs but the line is banjo.

 

I think I misunderstood what you were saying sampson, but when I hear of a Carver dog I automatically think of Satch and Ironhead right off the bat. Then Stompanato and then the Tar Baby/Pitre dogs. But he was also responsible for Rascal, Honeybunch, and bolio which all became their own lines. Carver was the man. I think a lot of his success was because he didn't stick to one line but just good dogs.

 

Yeah i hear ya Yardboy..thats what i think of too..

Well T-Bud did not put Mexico on the map . Stu Fowler Red Lady , Bullyson , Boomerang , Bolio wre all down in mexico at one time or another . you guys need to learn some history .
