Subject: Just wondering??

Just curious... What are folks thoughts on dogs bred for coon in the Carolinas or southern swamps vs bear bred dogs for Wi. and MN. vs cat dogs for Montana and Idaho. Will they all be bred the same for the same traits, size etc?? Never bear or cat hunted myself. Never hunted in bear or cat country either. But I do believe the differnt terrain and game would cause breeders to breed a little different dog than maybe a coon hunter in the midwest. With that said if all these dogs were lets say walkers in the beginning and had bred for generations in these regions for seperate jobs are they still all the same breed or what? I believe yes but some folks don't seem to think so. I really think that a dog bred and raised by a seasoned bear hunter in WA. for generations may differ from a dog here in OHIO from the same foundation stock but bred for generations for coon hunting.I know when I was a kid dogs from open country like Kansas and Oklahoma tended to be a good bit bigger than dogs raised here in Ohio and Indiana where live stock woven wire fences were common.I think a bear bred leopard in Ca. vs a coon bred leopard here in Ohio are both leopards.
