personally i thought the sound of a doberman x greyhound is a good pair and would fit together like a jigsaw, but where yoy say that collies arent hunting dogs and neither are pitbulls well i have worked with farm collies for several years now and they do have an animal instinct a good nose and very good ears pitbull terriers however are also used for hunting in mexico etc. as known as pig dogs tackeling wildboars

i would like to add that these birds could be a bargain for someone and a major profit in the future as silike bantams are now making £140 for a pair on todays market, they make excellent pets and an even better salad

hi i havnt got a problem with you getting into falconry and a male harris hawk is most deffanitely the best choice of bird for a beginner he will teach you an awful lot but before you jump in with both feet buy falconry books perhaps go to the nearest falconry centre, and look up an a mentor, falconry isnt a pet thing it is an art and a sport, but instead of drawing falconry with a pen you draw falconry with 'patience' and that part of patience you need to lay back and take your time. its nothing like taiming a parrot you cant taim a 'b.o.p' you mann them. either way get your self a book or

-
spot on if yur using a gos, but thses harris hawks are slow and unsteady with dogs most of the time even though sometimes can be very calm with dogs but very easily put off quarry by the smallest of movements from the dog! my mates got a harris and got a patterdale they were alright after about a week after the dog went to close to the perch and the male has give him a little foot been sound ever since mint. my fhh flies really well over my mates working spaniels but when my boxer gets too close to her in the garden she baits at his face as if she wants to kill him even if he quit
