forest of dean redneck 11,598 Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 Vitaliy is the anyone using other spitz type dogs over there on boar or badger ,elkhounds etc? Quote Link to post
VITALIY13 142 Posted December 7, 2013 Report Share Posted December 7, 2013 All prefer Laika. There are several types of Laika. Those that hunt mostly all originally from Russia. Perhaps because local hunters in touch with hunters from Russia. From there they bring the best dogs among Laika. Elkhound ( some call them Norwegian Laika ) as I know that they are close relatives with Laika. I've heard they are good hunters and some hunters use them in Ukraine but not very popular between hunters in my region. I suspect that someone mixes Laika with Elkhound. In my region Elkhound very often used as a home dog , as they a good guards and they behave well with kids. 1 Quote Link to post

bluecollar 104 Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Jawn come on out west to Oregon.... We got some that will run a track for you. Tanners Kracken dog has run several tracks over 600yrs. It would be awesome if you could drop off some little Jagds too as all the ones I have seen or owned were much to large. 2 Quote Link to post
Mosby 355 Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 You haven't seen little June yet Bluecollar. She's smaller than Albert. Not tested yet really. Had her on a coon underground this week and she did better than ever... We'll see how she comes on. Quote Link to post
jawn 449 Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 Jawn come on out west to Oregon.... We got some that will run a track for you. Tanners Kracken dog has run several tracks over 600yrs. It would be awesome if you could drop off some little Jagds too as all the ones I have seen or owned were much to large. From what I have seen the average size fell stateside is as large or larger than the average jagd and isn't bred with a care in the world over whether or not it could go to ground, OR run a track if it wanted to.... and while I'd be impressed with a fell that could move a 600 meter track... that's a minimum standard for jagd puppy born here, and they aren't doing it in optimum conditions bluecollar......I'd like very much to hunt Oregon with you Mosby, Tanner, and Jim Gibbs. I'd like to see the dogs off of Zulu doing what they do. I've had several conversations with Mosby about June.... and just bred her sister. I'd sure like to see her hunt in person. As much as I'd like to fly around the country dropping off dogs.... we're just not able. We lost more than were born this year.... and we breed for our own uses first. @Artodex..... Don't be bashful..... come on out with it. And for the record..... exactly how many dogs have you tested for pll? Thanks... Quote Link to post
WorkingBullandTerrier 132 Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 @jawn: What (if any) is the most consistant size/weight in your dogs that you keep/breed? My husband has two, and his female is the same size as his lead Patterdale, but his male is in the thirty pound range EASY. Never seen one this big..... Quote Link to post
jawn 449 Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 An average dog for the Aluminium line is about twenty pounds. Male and female differ greatly in height and build with males usually being tall rangy dogs and females being short and stocky. 1 Quote Link to post
WorkingBullandTerrier 132 Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 Got ya. Yeah she is stocky and shorter. He is built almost comparable to a mini bulldog, buy he still has the nice thick bone for as leggy as he is. This build is actually better over here where we have so much swamp/marsh land that they have to maneuver. I really enjoy hunting behind these dogs. They're pretty amazing, and versatile.
