Maybe you should be selling em mate, start up a little online business. They look top class. -
Man thought it meant bear grylls himself died in the wild, and ofcourse that's what they were going for to get attention, sneaky pricks.

Dog easy. Horse is (or was) man's handiest slave, but dog is man's best friend.

rabbit- Whippet x bed, whippet x grey, collie x grey Hare- whippet x grey, saluki x grey Fox- grey x bull, grey x terrier, grey x deerhound Antelope- saluki x grey Kangaroo - deerhound x grey Deer - grey x deerhound Boar - bull x grey. deerhound x bull, wolfhound x bull best allrounder- deerhound x grey. Only one that could hunt all of the above with some degree of success IMO.

Every pet one I've come across seemed like it wished it was working, they're fiery brave little dogs with a lot of attitude, but yeah never heard of a serious worker. -
Lol, don't get me wrong, it's a cool story otherwise, just saying minutes is a long time. Could boil a kettle of tea and drink it while that's going on.

Don't see how mate, no animals were tied up here, all were wild and caught in the wild. Including the bulls. We have wild feral bulls in oz.

Yeah the boardogs forum was the best, I was "bitey" (named after homer simpson's possum lol). I think the OP had a fair question, from this other aussie's perspective anyway, is it right to assume that "before ban" the bull x's were mostly for deer? Even though I've never set foot in england and probably never will the ban there pisses me off more than any laws in australia, because I'm by blood an englishmen and I just think how the hell can they tell an englishmen not to go out with a dog and catch game, when he's been doing it for thousands of years. Here in australia the natives ar

That clip is funnily enough not even from africa, it's from india and it's a leopard charging on some pigs (not warthogs) and then getting pole-axed. Warthogs despite their big tusks aren't actually as dangerous as pigs, not as strong and those big tusks aren't even the ones they attack with, they're just whetstones to sharpen the killing lower tusks, and they also use them as a barricade when they back into burrows. Warthogs however are a lot faster than pigs, that's why in africa they hunt them with boergreys rather than these big solid pig dog types. The bloom brothers' dogs had a bit of

Minutes? For a fox? Was it a cocker spaniel?

Cheers mate!! looks like it is possible, to hell with all the nay-sayers lol.

Yeah they always mostly get their neck, and usually with chunks embedded into the collar. They smell it then turn their face to press their neck into the shit, and then maybe roll onto their backs onto it if you don't whip them off it in time with the lead, lol.

JD is ok but all other american whiskey or bourbon is just poisonous crap. Like others have said about getting drunk at 14 and then getting turned off scotch, for me it was bourbon. Can't stand to be in the same room as it. I love all scotch/irish whiskey though to be honest, not too fussy.

Ahh ok, that explains why this isn't a thing. Lol. Yeah I had the ignorant assumption falconer's birds brought the killed animal back to them. Suppose it does seem a bit silly now I think about it, hard enough getting a dog to retrieve and they've been bred for thousands of years to do things for us. Bit much to ask from a wild bird. Just had a thought though, what if you were in the middle of the ocean on a boat and it had no where else to land?
