The first dog to truly break out and demonstrate the power of this combination was White’s Tab (ROM). The higher the percentage of Red Boy in this mix brings down the quality of this line, as the undesirable traits of the Red Boy line will appear. That would be a 75% Jeep dog, with 25% of quality Red Boy blood.
You now have a dog with an abundance of gameness, high ability, and a mouth that would rate in the average to above average range depending on the percentages of each bloodline used in its pure form. The Jeep/Red Boy line seems to offer the best that both lines have to offer in a 75/25 combination.
Another benefit of the Jeep/Red Boy line was an increase in the quality of the overall dog. It has also been refined over the past 10 years now to produce a dog that is as game as a pure Red Boy dog would be, but without the high percentages of dumb, or soft mouthed dogs that the Red Boy line has been known to produce. The Jeep/Red Boy dog is no longer a hybrid cross, but rather a combination of the best that these two lines have to offer. Many people today are using tight Red Boy stock that is not based on proven dogs, therefore the line in its pure form is not much better then it would have been 10 years back.So what is better than Red Boy? How can we avoid the mistakes of those that have only sought out gameness from this line? Today the best of this line was a result of a cross of the Jeep blood into the Red Boy line itself.At one time this would have been looked at as a cross, however today the Jeep/Red Boy line is so highly refined that it produces a dog that is as game as the Red Boy line, but without many of the negatives that have been attached to a tighter Red Boy dog. This is something that is an undesirable trait for those that are looking at being competitive in the world of fast lane competition. The quality of Red Boy dogs has also diminished as the years have gone on as a result of popularity. Tight Red Boy breeding’s tend to produce dogs with average to below average bite. There is also another drawback to this line when bred tight and that is in the quality of mouth that these dogs will produce. This becomes more apparent when higher percentages of this bloodline are used. The Red Boy blood while contributing greatly to gameness in a line also has a reputation of producing a dumber than average dog, hence the term dumb game.
