Sky wasnt monkey faced when I bought her, she had a full mask. It slowly faded away, do they all do that or are some born monkey faced?

I havn't seen as many out of Bullet and Fancy as you have, and I would think that Fancy dominated the looks, but not totally. I thought Nell was pretty monkey faced myself.

What exactlly are you wanting to know, not that I could help you but if your wanting to know which hound was the very first monkey faced hound I dont think there's a legitemate answer.

like tom said, not sure what info you are lookin for, but I thought DRP's post was pretty informative...I am assuming he got it from the same place I did, blue book....there are several articles about it, and they all pretty much say the same thing, it was first noticed, at least by the writer/s, around the time period these dogs were kickin ......
"If you will go back and look at the foundational hounds the early breeders used, including Elbert Vaughn, you will find that many of those dogs were monkey faced. As a matter of fact, some of the old hounds looked like red ticks. Vaughn's Bawler, Vaughn's Lula, Hills Blue Rock, Ellyson's Tige, Braggs Bill the Barber, (to name just a few) were all monkey faced. It is a throw back of some of the foundational breeding stock. If you go back far enough, you would find monkey face blues in every strain. It may not be a favorite color, but it shows just how dominant the old genes really are."

I doubt you will find anyone on here that was around when these dogs were bein hunted....good luck.....
p.s. I doubt you can show me a hound that doesnt trace back to one of the foundation vaughn bred dogs that was monkey faced....its in every bloodline....

I am not for sure were it comes from but do not believe it comes from Spanky however I would agree the red heads come from Spanky and on back to Northern Blue Sadie whom did not have a lot of Bluetick look to her. I have to think the monkey face on Bullet came from the S.R. line a total different look than any Hammer red headed dogs.

Keep in mind Chiefs paternal pedigree. Also we know where Fly came from. Ok now what two dogs is Spanky bred on? I believe the answer is early Hammer blooded hounds who we all know are Vaughn blooded then turned into themselves more intensley than any other strain of any breed. With that known wouldnt it be safe to say the Hammer dogs carry this trait from the Vaughn dogs who were known for this coloration? Prolly like anything else with genetics,its all an educated guess lol. But my guess is Hammer dogs carry alot of influence even many generations downstream because of their genetic makeup. They received that makeup from Mr Vaughns hounds, but like I said "just a guess". Good luck with finding all the pieces to your puzzle. Dave

I sure like the Hammer blood but I believe on this one I will have to agree the monkey face does not come from HAMMER >>>>>>Hammer III. As you well know there is a difference in red head and a monkey face............

I dont know where it started but I know where I first saw it.My good friend Mr. Frank Erwin was the breeder of Robs Crazy.She was out of his Mighty Blue Magnum x Mighty Blue Dolly.I personally remember all of this litter being monkey faced.I hunted with Magnum,Dolly and several of Crazys mates many times.This was a very good pair of hounds and an extremely good litter of pups from them.This monkey faced characteristic seems to me to have without a doubt stemmed from this cross,a cross that did end up leading blueticks to Bullet.I am not a bluetick breeder and what I have seen dont make it the begining,just where I saw it first.Happy Hunting

So there it is.....it is coming from just about every dog in the pedigree....For some reason the cross Bullet was out of produced it more than most, as did Bullet himself, and some of his sons and grandsons are as well....maybe it was the hammer on top crossed on the crazy gyp on the bottom....but one thing I would like to see....Lets see some monkey faced solid hammer dogs....

When I look at Rob's Crazy's pedigree I don't see a bunch of monkey faced dogs. Diamond Jim Dogs wasn't know for this trait.

GRNITECH 'PR' ROB'S CRAZY


Voyd you have been around longer than I have, and know more about the background of these dogs. My question is, if Crazy didn't have monkey face behind her then how did all her littermates and her come out this way?

NOW THIS IS WHAT SOLD ME ON CRAZY BEING THE DOMINATE ONE ON THE MONKEY FACE THROUGH FLY AND BULLET. I'm not saying she is the only thing behind these dogs that were monkey faced. Spud was very monkey faced. This female below is out of GrCh GrNiteCh 'PR' Sexton's Blue Jimmy x GrNiteCh 'PR' Rob's Crazy. Just speaking for myself, I have NEVER seen a monkey faced dog out Jimmy until this cross. Someone else might have, but I havn't. My point is Jimmy didn't do this, Crazy did and was very dominate about it.

Rebel was not a so called monkey face as these dogs posted here or was he like Bullet to be honest he looked I think more like Northern Blue Sadie and was an odd looking character and Rambler I believe a littermate to Rebel was a total different looking dog. I have never seen a Hammer dog monkey face as Bullet and these dogs posted here, I have to say this tee off who it may there has never ben a better looking dog than Bullet in any line or will there ever be, I have never owned a dog out of him but sure wished I did have some of that blood here. Can anyone post a picture of Northern Blue Rebel and Rambler. I have one here of Rambler I will find but none of Rebel.......... I have seen on different occasions liver colored Hammer dogs in Kentucky and in Mich........
