Dorn dogs are a mix of several breeds created by Vern Dorn. O'Gorman has been working with these dogs for quite a while now. They are not trail hounds but all around fur dogs used to decoy, den, work drags, ect.... The ones I had looked like a cross between a couple different terriers with a little cur thrown in. They are popular with trappers and ADC men.
You are right a DD = Drathaar basically a GWP from Germany only bred after strict testing of the parents and more focused on fur work then the GWP over here. I use them for many things and have found them very capable and enjoyable dogs.
Devin- Did you get yours from Craig and Dana?
