OFRN traits?

I've read where they are "dogs with class" but what are some other traits they have? How big do the generally run? Did they stay all night if they had to? I know a guy on here specializes in them and he can PM me if he wants to, I tried PMing him but they are turned off or unavailable or whatever. Just wanting to know more about them than they generally have red noses, yellow, amber or red eyes, and other useless info.

 

Do a search on here and google. You will find everything your looking for

 

curring quiting jumping the wall that about sums up there traits

 

I agree with Willy but there are segments who are as good as any dogs produced today. I'm not talking about game dogs but pitdogs who win. It's not hard to figure out who has been the most successful in producing the most accomplished dogs in history!

 

I have dogs that go back to the hemphill /wilder ofrn and they are as game as any other line. The true ofrn all the way back to lightner.

 

Can you please post a ped?

 

What about wind, any particular styles they have? Indestructible, maybe?

The ped that I just posted is of my dog Copper nut.

 

i think they were suppose to be known for deep gameness and wind
dont quote me on that but that is what i have heard and no1 else seems like they are gonna answer so...

 

...............

 

Thanks Dream. A buddy of mine is interested in this strain of dogs and I'm trying to find info for him.

 

i heard 20min

 

:mad: pretty dogs

 

i know i gave u some connects but i met two new ones today. ill show u when i get to a real computer. also one of those connects is no go lol, ill tell u why...

 

Years ago i seen some dead game ofrn dogs all around good dog.do some research .some of todays top dogs trace back to the ofrn.today i believe most r bred for color .now that don't mean that a good 1 will not pop up every now and again as you will get good and bad in all blood lines i do not care what bloodline or dogs u breed and if any one say different then they have been around these dogs long enought to know what they are talking aboutjmo

 

No offense but that's a showdog and nothing working in the first 4 generations so it's probably already almost a amstaff.
Your dog does have great potential to do what it was bred to do and that is weightpull.
When I hear ofrn I can only think of 3 real bloodlines out there still surviving.

Another trait of the working ofrn strain is a good mouth

 

I don't really think anyone can make generalizations about the OFRN strain as a whole unless you're talking about color. Otherwise the dogs considered OFRN today are too diverse. Norrod's RedDevil dogs are very different than Wilder's Hemphill dogs and also Norrod's Hemphill dogs. Some of the OFRN lines have been peddled to shit, some isn't bad, and some is great depending on what you're looking at. Then of course there's the dogs of old Richard Stratton tells of in his writing from Bob Hemphill, Lightner, Wallace, and Feeley, which are only found as names written in pedigrees way back. And don't forget about the speculation of Redboy actually being OFRN too.

I think its hard to say anything that's true about all of the dogs mentioned except that I think they look kinda cool. But that's just opinion, not fact.

 

The OFRN dogs that came directly from Ireland are/were known to have good wind and generally ran about 40-45#, though there have been a few 30# dogs. Most of them sat at 50-55 on the chain, but pit weight were normally 40-45 and their wind is their most famous trait.

 

The OFRN were known to have a lot of wind and when matched into each other, they could go 2 hours+. Unfortunately, a lot of them have been bred out the ass for only a pretty pedigree etc. There are still many good ones out there if you look hard enough.
