Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

230. "Never Had Too Much Trouble Gettin' One To Tree"
Q: Well, why don't you introduce yourself, Danny?
I'm Danny Smith. I live in Kentucky, and I'm the registrar for the Stephens Breeders Association. I've had these dogs since I was a kid and have seen the breed evolve and stay a big part of our hunting tradition.
229. Julys, Leopards, & Plotts
Q: What do you think about the idea that modern Julys have become more houndy due to selection rather than crossbreeding?
I think breeders have been selecting for certain hound-type traits, so the appearance shifts reflect deliberate breedings rather than random crosses; it's about shaping what works for the people and the terrain, not just crossing for novelty.
229. Julys, Leopards, & Plotts
Q: Why did you decide to get Blondie registered as a Leopard?
I registered Blondie with ACBA to document her lineage, while not strictly limiting her to a single category; it was about keeping papers honest and recognizing a dog's history rather than shoehorning it into a strict label.
220. All American Tree Dogs
Q: You've talked about a lot of good dogs tonight, but which dog, out of all your dogs, what's the best dog you've ever owned?
He names Dixie and Smokey as top contenders for best competition dogs, highlighting Dixie's pup-stage performance and Smokey's prolific coon trees, and emphasizes personal bond with these dogs.
220. All American Tree Dogs
Q: So what year did you get an actual registered Stephens?
He explains that he didn't register many of his dogs for a long time, detailing the later lineage and registrations that followed, and framing the early years of his kennel's development.
