Gamblers Delight

What are you guys thoughts on these types of dogs? Also would you include these types of dogs in your breeding program? All fictional accounts will be appreciated.

 

What type is that?

 

"fictional"?

 

I think the term his mental tongue was grasping for was "hypothetical" LOL

 

the hank dogs will show all sorts of funny signs and are not for those who lack heart, as cur handelers have quit more of these dogs than the bulldog quitting...

what about the almighty cur snapper, are they considered a gamblers delight???

the two masters hargrove and ratliff thought so when they rematched into bich boy billys grandchampion spikey, but to no avale...spikey beat both thier champs...

Great response fellows , I stated fictional because I hope this forum is all fictional....you know. Anyways this type of dog will make bad signs through out rolls and schooling but never under any circumstances quit. No matter what, may whine a bit, plays alot of defense, tail not in air as should be and or wagging. No matter he keeps coming!!! The eyes and mind screams cur, but is he. Is this dog game? Can u win or loss with him? Do they include this crap in a line...would you. I mean the true trait is never to stop, under whatever circumstances they are to keep going ..to win. Pistola that's a good example. You know what I'm talking about. Would you breed theses dogs? Man I dunno maybe there just for the box...

 

Snap Billy's Spikey, I like the way he was breed....oh no. Not chinaman /bolio tombstone. Lol.. My favorite oh well.

 

Thunder, do you know what a cur snapper is???
I once read about a killer that whined when he wasnt where he wanted to be, but once he got there he left little opertunity for the other one to counter-whine...
Another was obedien trained and waited in the corner till the five count on his handers demand as it fit his style of slow scratching and he would side step and grab an ear... But the further it got and the handeler would send him in fast true and hard... the dogs name was d.r.'s d.r. or doc from the dominican republic and beat a chrage from stone city p.r....

 

I once heard a tale about a female who was called a gamblers delight. She wouldn't get going until around :30. Would be in hold all the way through but little to minimal work. Right about the time the pace would slow she was warming up, and it seemed as if the longer it went the stronger she got. She was said to be a very durable, rough, and naturally winded dog whom came down from such traits in her ancestors. Now some may of called her a slow starter, but those who are said to have seen her may call her a gamblers delight. As by the time she was getting started all kinds of wagers would of more than likely stacked up against her, very few saw her, yet she hung amongst the of some experienced men. Those who knew her style definitely appreciated her & it. But who knows if this tale is true, as lots of doggers are liars anyhow.......lol

 

Good one Muddville...

 

Was it the obedience trained dogs turn to scratch or it's opponents turn?

 

Not sure but Id say both to make it sound better...

 

Can't be both......most don't understand or know cajun rules.

 

From what I understand from duing my research on the subject so when I write these fictional stories so they sound legit is...
No matter whos turn to scratch, when the ref says release or what ever both dogs can go but its only up to the one whos turn it is to take hold in the time line...
I never practiced it but find it interesting and drill who ever I can get to tell me something...
Please osage tell me something different or as you interpret it...

 

They are only gamblers delight to the folk who knows how they behave, I certainly wouldn't put my money on a dog that looked suspect. I think the way a dog carries its tail is the tell.

 

That there Slim is right on point. For more than one reason you want in and out.....with the W of coarse....lol.

Wally exactly....only those who know the said Gambler's Delight will feel comfortable backing said type.

 

Great post people. Yeah Pistola, I know what a snapper is lol. And Wally your right, only the camp with the GD will know. And by all means get this $#!+ over with like Slim suggest. Anyway, the only way I could see them being effective is scratch time. The opponent thinks he has a quick win, a friend with the GD screams $$$$ on the scratch, as he has made so many bad signs surely he won't scratch. He scratches every single darn time, takes extra scratch money and leaves laughing....
