Mack will be 5 in September, he has never had any health issues, he is a good running hound, well behaved and friendly, he is very mucsular, and could make someone a super hunting partner if he had more time put into him, I have some younger hounds that I have been putting most of my time into, there is nothing wrong with him, he just needs to be able to do his job. He has sired 1 litter of 6 the 3 I kept have all turned out to be nice hunting dogs, Ruger is one of them. He is for sale also, and the same with him, he has really started running well this past winter I hate to part with him but I can only run so many, they both may be a little over 15 inches, but are nice hounds, Ruger will be 2 in August, he has lots of potential, and is very well mannered..
