these pup are greatgrand pups out of nitro and miss mona on sires side and grand pups out of gold stars pharoah and mcguires shiney on dam side. they will have lots of hunt and heart. will be gritty enough to stop and stay with a bad hog but not just straight catch. if your looking for med to long range pups to get the job done for you this is them. you wont have to walk with these pups. i own both parient and they are very good hog dog some of the best ive been with in years.
