    Any pig allowed to live a wild life will revert to a natural state a lot may be due to foraging and rooting builds much stronger necks and shoulders. Leave them be and their could be a nice feral population for a bit of sport in a couple of generations.

    Ive hunted with american staghounds and saluki crosses back in 2010 in New Mexico. They were certainly the real deal would have thought a pure would be to big and strong for rabbits in tight places. But what do I know.

    I'm no fan of desexing young.his only an adolescent like 14yr old boy cant keep their hand off it. Hell grow out of it and settle down. Plenty of evidence how desexing young is a death sentence

    Always found an older dog that knows the ropes will teach young dog much more than any training tricks.

    Dogs breed for a purpose that are not given a purpose often become a problem.

    Been a lot mixed in to deer hunting dogs out here chartpolski. This one being a black and tan, the ones I find most interesting are called English coonhound coincidently. Think it comes from the original English foxhounds the breed came from.

    I have a sstaghound soft and thick around home the terrier beats up on him. But show him a fox and look out hes a machine. He started at 14months and hasn't looked back.

    A long dog good on ya by the way. Deerhound was often added to greyhound lines here in Australia back in the early part of last century before registration became so strict for track dogs. The second cross back to the greyhound was the ducks guts feed coursing back when it was sanctioned.

      I hunt rabbits mainly, not many out Dubbo way I believe but lived not far from Wellington a few years ago and the place was over run with deer, fox and hares. I had a bloke from Coolah wanting me to get rid of rabbits, I was busy moving at the time but reckons there were hundreds on his place.

    I have a wolfhound greyhound deerhound greyhound hes 29.5 inches its I went for him because wolfhounds give a bit more nose to the mix but my bloke is very much a point and shoot type, dam quick dog with good finish just have to rely on the other dog to get them moving first.

    We use our russels to push cover all the time. They do a great job pushing fox feral pigs and deer.

    One fox hound from the Perth hunt in WA he was a trialling power and many fox and feral pigs meet their dimise over him.

    Here in Aus plenty of pig dogs go missing some a killed by farmers or dingo packs but some are ruff enough and smart enough to live in the bush for years. They tend to form a pack with a young dingo bitch. If they stay away from stock but most dont and the the poison, the trap, or the rifle take them out.
