I'm looking for a young Plott Hound here in Washington State. Does anyone know of a breeder or where one might be available?

wow!!!
I notice that you hve been here for 5 DAYS.
first you want a holster.
then you say that your 380 has been in the shop for 11 MONTHS,
waiting for an ambi safety... WOW!!!
Now you ask in an OPEN carry forum for a PLOTT hound....
I just gotta ask,,,,, what is a PLOTT hound????
Why would you be without your 380 for 11 MONTHS waiting for an ambi safety?
why didnt you try to find a holster for your 380 11 MONTHS ago?
If you want an ambi safety,, I gotta figure you are left handed, so am I...
Big deal,,, get your ambidextrious system going...
I use my left trigger finger to flip my safety on or off,,, you dont HAVE to use your thumb!
Go get your gun back, and get a holster, then carry, all the time!

Information copied/pasted from:
http://www.akc.org/breeds/plott/
AKC MEET THE BREEDS®: Plott
Powerful and well-muscled, the Plott brings big game such as bear or boar to bay or tree with its determination, endurance and courage. Today, the Plott – who is the state dog of North Carolina – is also used for coonhunting in addition to his more traditional duties. The breed’s smooth, glossy coat can be any shade of brindle (a streaked or striped pattern of dark hair imposed on a lighter background), solid black or have a saddle or markings.
A Look Back
In 1750, the two young Plott brothers left Germany and immigrated to America with five Hanoverian Hounds. One brother died during the voyage, but the other settled in North Carolina, raised a family and bred his dogs. Over the next 200 years, the Plott descendents were mountain men who used their dogs to hunt bear and boar. The dogs became known by the family name and were referred to as the Plotts’ hounds.
Right Breed for You?
Plotts are eager to please, loyal, intelligent and alert in the home, but are aggressive, bold and fearless while hunting. Owners should be prepared to hear the Plott’s "voice" in the home at times. An athletic breed, they require daily exercise, but their short coats are low maintenance.
For the OP:

Plott Hounds
I've known a few of them and they are fabulous dogs. I'm hoping to find one in Washington, but no luck so far.
Thanks for your comment.
