    The picture on this section is a very special picture. It has most (not all) of the people responsible for the Treeing Walker Breed and it becoming the most popular coonhound breed.This section is created to allow discussions that deal with the Breeding of the Treeing Walker. What strains cross well together and which ones don't. The traits of different strains. Any issue dealing with the breeding of this breed. Also the future of the breed and what needs to be done to keep it on top.

  • The Hounds Of Finley River


    TinyFinleyRiverChiefFinley River Chief was responsible for much of the excitement and growth for the breed. There are other great strains that also helped in the creation of this great breed, but in his day Finley River Chief was the gold standard of top reproducers. His DNA still runs so strong through a lot of hounds of the day. When you go back far enough you will see that the name of Chief or another name of the Finley River strain comes up a number of times in so many of the top hounds of the day. This section will have pictures and ads of the dogs of the Finley River Strain.

  • Finley River Dan Hounds

    TinyFinleyRiverDanMany consider Mear's Finley River Dan to be the best reproducing son of Finley River Chief. Lonnie Mear's has done a great job of breeding and promoting what many call the Finley River Dan Strain of Hounds.Mear's Finley River Dan is a son of Finley River Chief. So even though many may call it the Finley River Dan Strain, like Spring Creek Rock, it is actually Finley River Chief Strain of Hounds.

  • Mack Twain


    TinyMackTwainThere are numerous strains in the Treeing Walker Breed. One of the strains that produced what real coonhunters would call real coonhounds was MACK TWAIN! Mack Twain was one of the top dogs of his day. Still if you go back far enough you will find Mack Twain in some of the better hounds. The strain was introduced to the public a great deal by John Cason who also owned Nite Ch. California Mack. California Mack and a son of Calif. Mack, Nite Ch. California Mack Twain Jr. were responsible for producing many track driving, cold nose, very hard tree dogs that are what the MACK TWAIN strain is known for. Dick Herberger's best female Nite Ch. Hershberger's Texas Babe was a grand daugther of Mack Twain.

  • The Hounds Of House


    TinyHouse'sChiefVery rarely does one female hound have as big of impact on a breed as did the Grand Ole Female HOUSE'S QUEEN.Unlike Males who have the chance to produce hundreds or even thousands of offspring, the female is very limited.When you talk about the House Strain, the fountain head of that strain is House's Queen.This section will have ads and pictures of hounds that are considered the House Strain of Treeing Walkers.

  • Sons and Daughters Of House's Queen


    Very rarely does one female hound have as big of impact on a breed as did the Grand Ole Female HOUSE'S QUEEN.Unlike Males who have the chance to produce hundreds or even thousands of offspring, the female is very limited.When you talk about the House Strain, the fountain head of that strain is House's Queen.One of the females to have a huge impact on the Treeing Walker Breed is House's Queen. She may have had more of an impact then any other female in the breeds history. Her impact could also be measured with any of the stud dogs of the past or present.House's Queen was mated to three different stud dogs. House's Elmer, Johnson's Banjo, and Merchant's Banjo II.This thread here will just have pictures of the hounds of those crosses. When it is finished I believe most will be impressed.It may take some time to get all of the pictures together and put up but it will happen. It only seems right to start with the 3 hounds that most would agree are the most famous from the different matings. But there are a lot more and what their winning records are in the hunts are impressive.

  • Sailor Boy or Hershberger Strain (Yadkin River)


    TinyHershbergersSpotJr.In 1961 a dog won the ACHA world hunt that introduced another strain to the treeing walker world. Nite Ch. Stan's Sailor Boy was 1961 ACHA World Champion. Then in 1964 a son of Sailor Boy, Nite Ch. Stan's Sailor Jr. won the 1964 ACHA World Championship. Sailor Boy was sired by Hershberger's Spot Jr. and his dam was Hershberger's Kansas Rose who was out of Hershberger's Little Butch. As we search a lot of these great hounds one of the common threads we find in many of them is Hershberger's Spot Jr. or his son Ch. Nite Ch. Hershberger's Okla. Spot. Maybe in fairness instead of calling it the SAILOR strain or SAILOR BOY strain it should be called HERSHBERGER. Doing that could take away from identifying what strain you are talking about correctly. Dick Hershberger had a number of hounds in his day that weren't related to Spot Jr. So to correctly indentify the strain we will continue calling it the SAILOR or SAILOR BOY Line.If you find dogs that go back to 1964 ACHA World Champion Stan's Sailor Jr., 1961 ACHA World Champion Stan's Sailor Boy, Grand Nite Ch. Ball's Hickory Nut Harry, Dual Grand Ch. Merchan'ts Bawling Barney, Grand Nite Ch. Norman's Coon Stopper, Dual Grand Ch. House's Lipper, Grand Nite Ch. Nocturnal Nailor, Ch. Grand Nite Ch. Rock River Sackett Jr., the one common thread that ties them all together is the bloodlines of Hershberger's Spot Jr. or his son Ch. Nite Ch. Hershberger's Okla. Spot.  Stan's Sailor Boy and Hershberger's Okla. Spot were half brothers both being out of Hershberger's Spot Jr.

     

    Many today talk of the Yadkin River Strain.  It is a combination of a number of strains but could easily be classified as more Sailor Boy Strain then any other.

  • The Stud Dogs OF


    Pictured in this ad are four men that had a great impact on the Treeing Walker Breed. Three of this had as much impact as anyone did on helping the breed become the most popular breed.We thought it would be interesting to have a section that has ads on all the dogs these men owned or advertised at stud. Here you will find sections of Stud Dogs offered by John Monroe, Joe House, James Merchant. Also another person that has had a great influence on the breed is Lonnie Mears. We will have a section of his Stud Dogs. We thought it would also be interesting to have a section on the stud dogs of Timothy Ball plus some others we have plans for. Please be patient with us as we get these started and up. It will take some time before they are complete.Some ads may be repeated in other sections but we will try to use different ads when we can so you have different ones to view.

  • Gathright Page


     

    This is a very special page for a lot of reasons.  One person who has been very helpful and generous in helping me get some of this information and pictures is Bobby Gathright.  He has helped not wanting or asking to be recognized.  From my dealings with him, he is one of the good guys.  In his eyes one of the good guys is his father Bob Gathright.  The picture in this section is of Bob Gathright and Gathright's Texas Timber.

     

    I want to dedicate this section to all of the fathers that got their sons (and now daugthers) started in this great sport.

     

    This section will have pictures and ads of hounds that many may not have heard of but were the hounds that made people love the sport of coonhunting.  A dog doesn't have to be famous to be a coondog or to contribute to the improvement of the breed.  In this section will be hounds that may not be well known, but in their way contributed to helping make this breed what it is today.
