Trigger 26 Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 flint08s asked me to put this up. ive just got back from the hospital and visiting flint08 after his nights lamping was cut short by a herd of charolais cows and calves, whilst out with the dogs and two other men a herd of cows with calves came running towards them and one drove flint08 to the ground and started stamping on him with the rest of the herd joining in, the two other men with flint08 were powerless to do anything to free him from the herd despite several attempts. after a while some of the herd moved away and left only 5 cows still attacking, one of the men set the malamutes on the cows and the dogs responded buy going straight in and locking onto the one cow and trying to pull it off after a good battle with the one beast they released him and went straight in at the remaining cows who after a bit more of a battle finally backed off leaving flint08 to be helped by the two other men who taken him straight to the hospital. i think it shows how brave and reliable the dogs are when asked, his two stock broken dogs broke the rules on command saving a life. i wonder how much the malamute blood contributed to them standing there ground perhaps it is good blood to have in a lurcher.

Simoman 110 Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 I had the same problem years ago but I was running a collie cross, with his added inteligence he also phoned the emergency services and produced a wonderfull steak tata before they arrived................. On a serious note hope he is ok, cows are strong beasts........ Quote Link to post
