I’m with you there can’t stand a noisy dog was walking along Weymouth seafront yesterday and couple going along with a cockerpoo type that was barking as it walked , everyone was staring I would of been telling it quiet or shut up ! 
most if the spitz breeds can be aloof with strangers that’s why they get a bad image . 

Yep, they are hard to get a read on. It can be the same with other dogs, they don't really give a tell before they grab hold of something. I think that's why people are wary of them, I'd rather have a quiet dog than a yapper and barker, they drive me up the wall. Lol

I am convinced them fekin cockerpoos' were created to fekin annoy neighbours. I have two near me yappy noisy fekin things but saying that my mate's wife has one that he's got hunting and working cover with his small lurcher and it's as good as gold and not an excitable little yappy fekin thing like the two near me.

these were my mate James callens dogs I enjoyed many a hunt with James and his dogs before his passing.

I got an Am bulldog off James many years ago, he was a knowledgeable dog man and a really nice bloke, sorry to hear of his passing. The bulldog I got off him was a seriously good protection dog.

Probably as the dogs occupied mentally and physically plus lot of pet dogs are fed the equivalent of doggy junk food that’s loaded with colours and preservatives and makes them hyper .

Hunting with james and his bulldogs was a real experence.. ya James 's passing is a real loss to not only to his family but also so the dog hunting comunity in NSW. he was a great mate and I treasure our long conversations about hunting dogs or bulldogs or birds or fowls and ofcause Im sure we solved many of the worlds troubles at times. haha.

Did they  ever  cross  to staghounds or greyhounds  in Oz? A mate I know over here, had lurcher with 1/4 ridgeback  in think the rest  mainly  think whippet x grey, this was male he had think 26, good fox dog,  took few munjack  deer in the woods , a useful  type lurcher.

yes Bird its been done plenty they have made some handy dogs. my mate only recentlt lost a soup hound that had a i/8 ridgeback. along with Ibizan , greyhound and pit bull he was one of best finding dog Ive ever seen and had more then enough speed and kill for one. there were a notable pair in South Australia that made ridgeback x grethound that made their living killing foxes. and of cause most of the kangaroo lines in WA have ridgeback some where..
