i didnt believe in culling but in some cases i think it needs to be done. i bought i jrt which i was told she was chris hicks breeding i think shes about 14 or 15 month old now. After a couple off days after i fetched her i realised she wasnt responding to any noises so got her checked out and she was deaf so i rang the bloke i got her off and explained it to him and he said he had no idea and offered me my money back but my old man said no we'll keep her. shes turned out a decent bushing dog with a very good nose on her shame about her deafness but shes a good addition to our bushing pack now
