Rambo is 14 7/8 " tall and has a steady chop mouth.
In his younger years he could run fast if pushed, but prefered to run at a pace he could control. Now at 11 yrs. young
he runs med./fast and will slot in behind the faster hounds.
I've owned Rambo since he was 5 months old and he has never run deer,
squirrel, fox, or coyote! He has barked a pheasant when he couldn't find a bunny.
What I like most about Rambo is his personality, search, and
ability to hold the line. He has a tremendous nose and in the trials he can get his nose in trouble. I could sit
here all day and tell you how "great" he is, but I wont. All dogs have faults.
Faults: Rambo has a tendancy to cold trail. The more
I run him, the less he barks cold. With my busy life, I don't run him enough to be competitive in the trials.
Usually before a "big" hunt I'll make sure he gets in decent shape!
Luckily, of the 16 litters Rambo has produced I have came to
the conclusion that his cold trailing problem is a recessive gene. The pups have great noses but a select few will
pop off on cold scent, but not to the point of trailing every step.
Rambo's semen is 59-61 day gestation. This makes for smaller
pups thus having an easier delivery at birth.
I plan on line breeding and inbreeding his pups in the future
to "set" the traits that I desire. There have been a few litters out of solid rabbit running females that have been
exceptional. These litters will probably be the backbone of this "family" of hounds.
If you would like to breed to Rambo feel free to get ahold of
me and come up and watch him run. I also have the phone numbers of several people who have Rambo hounds.
Rambo's pedigree can be found as the father of Nellie.(on the
females page)
I like to have the females here for 3 days. Bred twice.
Brucellosis test a must.
Pup deals sometimes considered.
