Ideation 8,216 Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Seen the mal x's run, and i'll tell you what, they were some seriously underrated dogs. They reminded me of wolves in a lot of ways. Faster than you would imagine, bags of stamina, very strong, very biddable, smart, hardy, good feet, good coat, intelligent and a very nice, friendly and lovable nature. I'd have one in a shot. However i think it has been very much down to the mal bitch first used, and the knowledge and effort of those involved in breeding these dogs. I'm sure if many folk tried a repeat, they would end up with potlickers. Quote Link to post
whin 463 Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 seen a malemute cross years ago in usa a coyote hunter had it staghound cross malemute was in abook looked like a grey furry greyhound , thye must be lacking if they need to breed good saluk crosses in them ,wind and abit more running pace with a bit style Quote Link to post
jonny10 20 Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 I seen these dogs at the midland today they look to big and heavy to run anything they will b totally useless in my opinion and to b honest they looked like they had never worked in there lives couch potato dogs and there owners didn't have a clue they were armchair poachers (dreamers) Quote Link to post
whin 463 Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 cant se the piont of malemutes here maybe an experiment she looks alrite not disimliar to a bigger version of a heeler cross ,be hard to train having high powerd type of dogs in them but if they go to the [bANNED TEXT] homes could be something good Quote Link to post

jonny10 20 Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Why have one when there are collie/greys or bull/greys etc etc that will do it all and more just my opinion Quote Link to post
whin 463 Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 ye there caut afew rabbs but caut plenty the same with a beardie colie type lurcher but couldnt put a hare or a fast roe in bag on gd land unless fence bouncer ,cantsay much more need to see them run but jonny seems to no his dogs or is he green eyed monster lol Quote Link to post
Guest born to run1083 Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 if two dogs catch 60 rabbits in my view I think they've made the grade as rabbit dogs and with that size if they got the heart will sure manage much more. they do look very strong but well built, out of interest trigger what sizes and weight are they Quote Link to post
whin 463 Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 hearts good mate but when that hare roe fox pre ban has his tale up and away heart doesnt catch pace and plenty of it to get it of its run , any way hope it works well for the guy and all the best to him if they have agenuine reason to breed them Quote Link to post
Guest joball Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 I dont see the big deal in big numbers with two or three dogs personaly, you know you got a good rabbiting dog when there running on there own run after run and they still keep going even when there f****d. 2 Quote Link to post

Guest joball Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Perhaps they where not perhaps they might of been easy bunnys like them dales ones.... Quote Link to post
