only in aussie

got pigdog written all over them

nothing wrong with a well bred boxer, hard as and can run all day, they would also be the most natural pigdogs around i reckon, i have seen pet boxers go off at the smell of pigs on my dogbox, my bitch gets stuck into any pig, she is the only dog i have had to get a rip collar for she is so keen lol. i don't rate pitbulls as hunting dogs they get used alot but i reckon they are overated, staffies are just as good and have a more stable temp. pits don't live long on our pigs as a general rule, unlike the aussie's we don't use armour and protection collars that much, we hunt in thick wet bush al

nice spiker freezer must be full now mate

thats right the league :11: but i chase things that chase back dondog and nuffing wrong with worker to worker for any type of dog :friends:

i tend to agree with [bANNED TEXT] ya saying mate, i have guys asking for my boxer/labs as well and maybe in a few years i'd be able to supply them with one, however for me to put my bitch through this litter again would mean me losing out on three times as much for doing the same litter as pure breeds how ever i do want a yellow boxer/lab so i guess i have to give up the money for the purpose of my sport lol. if i was in your shoes i would just find a pure greyhound bitch and do the cross yaself, i'll go out on a limb and state that some guys do put too much energy into only breeding proven

great shot
-
thats a nice dog ya got there, [bANNED TEXT] does he catch? if you want a pup from it ya might have to do the breeding yourself, not often you can find a bitch owner that wants to breed a litter just on a whim for someone else. finding suitable homes for the remaining pups is best done first.

2000 rds is i abit of a scare tactic baldie :11: if the barrels cleaned after each session the rifle should be good for a few thousand more at least, taking into account it takes a few hundred rounds to break in a stainless tube that leaves bugger all to actually go hunting with over the life of the rifle, the 22.250 does wear them out sooner than a .223 sure but depends on [bANNED TEXT] the rifle is getting used for, target/paper shooters tend to call a rifle that groups sub moa good but after is starts grouping slightly over that buggered but for sniping bunnies they still do the job, we h

after running all day all they need is place to stretch and a warm dog box, all our dogs live in these type of kennels, so long as they get out for a run each day they are sweet
-
top dog is a nz heading dog and bottom is a huntaway, both breeds are sheep herding machines
-
thought i'd put up sum pic's of sum of our working dogs {for dawn b}

and we picked up another patchie sow when we hit another mob in the pines, seen about 20 pigs and got 6 eatable ones for two days hunting.
-
floyd found a sow with little ones and drowned one in the creek before we could get a rope around him
-
where he fell under the waterfall after getting the 30/30 bullet
-
about 130lb margot the policewomen trying the load
-
had another good few days on the pigs, caught the boar that was with the one we got the week before, they must have been fighting as this smaller one had a broken tusk and was sliced up and poked all over his sheild pups went well too
-
i don't like the breed full stop, they have no place in hunting anything they would have to be the worse stock killing dogs around if in the wrong hands, and they just look wrong :11: parents had them for years and i grew up with the breed but they just don't do it for me for a hunting breed.

looks better than that bloody stuffed one on ya last post :11:
-
no we don't have jagdterriers in nz, wish we did as they look like handy little dogs. thats one of the box/lab pups dawn. this pic shows a pig caught in the type of bush we hunt in notice the large brown dog trey who has dane in him compared to the smaller types which are better suited, trey is a top pup just he's getting a bit big although he's not slow in the bush, but the other dogs leave him behind in a chase.
-
yeah i know ya not a cop aaron :11: not that it matters if ya were, alot of cops hunt here. but the dogs i use are more designed for the country we hunt in, in aussie you guys seem to favor the mastiff/dane/pit type dogs with the odd lighter type thrown in which is great as they get the results in aussie but wouldn't handle the mountains,bush and rivers we catch our pigs in here. most of our hunting is done on foot so a dogs finding/hunting skills have to be up to the job, the jump off the ute and grab a hog like in your country dosen't happen that often in nz, most pigs are caught in deep bus

yes ya right they do go under the bottom wire if they can get their nose through the rest will follow, but to get through that fence they would have to be bloody small, as even that little one had to try the next wire up. the fence is very tight and we have had no pig go through it yet the goats come around the bottom cliffs so we get a few too many in there at times. good fun shooting them off the cliffs.
