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 .
Did you see the video on YouTube of pig hunting with cane corsos they get to the pig and there’s one laid down injured they carry it out but it later dies from its injuries .
I suppose it depended on what they wanted feet, nose , toughness ,bit of brain , most people were trying different breeds to come up with the next wonder cross some didn’t want to use a collie or a bedlington etc
I bet there’s lot of huntsmen said same about foxhound lurchers and shoot men about the gun dog lurchers . Sometimes it produces a decent animal sometimes it doesn’t .but until it’s tried we don’t know.
Someone put a pic up of a roe deer on a local fb photograph page yesterday don’t think they was happy when I said it was a sika as the one today just said deer lol.
When I heard I wondered if or when he passes on what would happen to that deer reserve of his in Dorset . Brian if you read this I don’t mind looking after it for you .;)
