mackem 26,072 Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Me,i believe traditional sports should be left alone,especially by foriengers.Yup,as soon as you turn on a TV in Thailand theres bull-fighting (two bulls)and cock fighting,same in the PI theres cokc-fighting and I have seen horse fighting there (two horses).Seen pics of horse fighting in Mongolia I think? I saw horse fighting years ago at a t'boli wedding in Mindanao,i don't condone nor condem it,wasnt my thing but they enjoyed it 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mushroom 12,822 Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 Those vids look awesome! Can anyone remember the videos on YouTube with those yanks hunting hogs. The main dog comes steaming in and the guys shouting "here comes the pain train" 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Boxing clever ? Then the dogos come! Lug apiece , look in good shape as well just read fodrn statement and instantly thought of this clip 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Navek Posted December 28, 2017 Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 Prefer watch the one on one than 5 on one .. not nocking using five on one as I know most are for just baying then two catch dogs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
THE STIFFMEISTER 15,609 Posted December 28, 2017 Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 I love how the others seem to be a bit reluctant and that first dogo just hits it like a train! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Makes ya wonder if they'd find their voice when alone with one for half an hour before anyone can get to them... I'm a bit dubious seeing two slipped. Also wonder if they'd be able to find in the first place. They look lumbering hulks in comparison to the first three bayers, maybe a case of being bred to do a job that requires nothing but balls for a minute or two? Its funny, we're all different I suppose, I was more taken with the three bayers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
THE STIFFMEISTER 15,609 Posted December 28, 2017 Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 Yeah totally get that born , seemed a nice type didn’t they? Rangy, keen but I just got the impression they were waiting on their big mate to turn up? Just maybe how that lad hunts though in fairness? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well let’s put it this way if I my self could only own two dogs I’d have two bayers/finders and use a gun to dispatch instead owning two them dogos as I recon they couldn’t find shit in a sty lol but for entertainment only I still liked watching them ballsy little dogs on there own Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rangy, keen but I just got the impression they were waiting on their big mate to turn up? Just maybe how that lad hunts though in fairness? I liked that they were tight with their boar, not 10ft away safely baying. That boar was a bit lively but they were pushing him, just not actually holding, I like that personally. As you say I'm sure they knew the score, but personally I like to see dogs learn and adapt like that. No need to be stitching all your dogs up, LOL. Maybe they'd be braver and take hold if it was necessary? That'd be smart but either way I liked them. Though, I don't go hunting to see dogs be hard/brave, I do it to see them drop game on the grass with efficiency and style, sometimes that requires hardness/bravery but I don't value it above anything else personally. From a practical point, I reckon I'd have a better time with those three and a spear or level action than I would being dragged through the brambles by a bloody minded dogo intent on closing to the sound of baying.
