air gun ant 1,666 Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 Just reading the EBT thread and wondered if anybody from the uk has ever taken their dog down under or to the Us and hunted pigs/hogs? I enjoy reading about the dogs they use and wonder how our dogs would fair? With the proper gear, vests etc. I no a few lads from here did Germany a couple years ago and the dogs did well from what I remember? Quote Link to post
Blueboybilly 164 Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 I think that dogs have to go in Quarantine for a month before you can take them to Oz. That would f**k with my dogs heads if I did that mate 1 Quote Link to post

Silversnake 1,099 Posted November 15, 2016 Report Share Posted November 15, 2016 $1500 aud for ten days quarantine is a lot of cabbage! I would love to see some of the dogs I have seen on thl working anywhere in the world but especially here in Oz. I have heard of people importing parsons,patterdales, gwp and jagdterriers from Europe with great success and catahoulas from the USA but I would love to see some of the good coursing dogs working over here. I have always thought a big strong fast type like razor would really suit my needs, but razor would suit many terrains and hunters needs! I would love to hear any stories of hunting dogs brought over here, running dogs or other. 2 Quote Link to post

What are you running atm?I have a bull arab male only for pigs, a saluki x staghound bitch and a saluki x whippet bitch. I also use a parsons and a little jack russell bitch as a bushing / flushing type. Bar the bull arab and jr the rest have barely been worth feeding but for now I still have hope. 1 Quote Link to post

Silversnake 1,099 Posted November 15, 2016 Report Share Posted November 15, 2016 I hunt rabbit, fox, hare and pigs. Other quarry like goat and deer I shoot. But any dog I am interested in would have to be capable of hare as there are good rabbit, fox dogs here but not too many hare dogs I hear of. 2 Quote Link to post

Silversnake 1,099 Posted November 15, 2016 Report Share Posted November 15, 2016 Brown hare here, I do not know if the environment has changed anything about them but I have tried to research this and cannot find any accurate information. I doubt there would be any significant differences though. 1 Quote Link to post
