ahright mickey,im working in perth myself at the moment.was lookin at some pig hunting and they all seem to be big bull arab and mixed bull breeds that are used.would you ever think about crossing the pat with a kelpie? id try and stay with a smooth coated breed anyway because of the aussie sun aswell.

Would the terriers not take awful stick off the pigs? I thought you would need a bull breed.
