Garnet, Tommy Bull bought a couple of females, maybe 3 0r 4 years ago, that was some of his old stock. Don't know if he ever bred them or if he still has them but you might ask him their whereabouts or if he knows anything about them. They came out of Kansas.
Rick Brooks still runs a sign business in Clinton, Mo. Him and Mark Moritz still hunt together and Mark is hunting a female that Rick he got from Dan Noble that they are pretty high on. Dan knows more about the breeding behind that female. Rick grew up with all the old Leopards and him and I have a lot of good conversations about them and he claims that she is pretty much up there with some of them. Last I heard Larry Singleton and his brother Randy both live in St.Joseph, Mo. Don't think Larry coon hunts anymore but think Randy is still running the PKC circuits with Walkers. Both of those guys had some of the best ole time Leopards ever and they have done the same thing with the Walker dogs. They definetly know what a top dog is. Haven't talked to them in a few years but have been to their homes and have hunted with those Walkers. Do know that their famous Poor Boys Cookie came recommended to Larry from an old well known Leopard Cur man.lol--hummmmm!!!later,,,sparkie
