  1. Why would you feed complete and Barf?
  2. Seen loads of that cross on estates near me. That's the danger of crossing anything with a propensity to bite with a bull. It'll only end in tears. I've known some right nasty russell/bull crosses. Nippy little shits but when they nip they don't half hurt :11:
  3. Just be careful with your bitches when they are in season.

    "..........." means they are currently posting something And Mik ain't red, he's purple which means he's a donating member
  5. You could always get a dog from stock that's good at the job People like Pigchaser and Oldboar have some excellent dogs and many that have retired at a grand old age after a lifetime chasing the boars. Obviously there's no point over here
  6. My Granda only kept whippet x greys and he'd have nowt else. He swore by them for deer and hare. My uncle has kept this tradition going but I couldn't tell you how he's getting on. I like a hardblood whippet and at the end of the day, that's what a lot of them are. Best of luck
  7. It'll be a shooting ticket gig. Not for one minute will you ever be able to legally dog them. Bull x Mastiff (if you're using the right dogs) is a world away from a Bull Mastiff

    I totally agree ditch shitter Oh, and one of those "hidden" members was me
  9. Stiffy....you about this weekend? Fellman and Dillon are popping down I bet your first posting will be somewhere glamourous like Dusseldorf :11:
  10. Fair enough mate. I've stated my opinion above and I'll leave it at that. I'm moving over to Australia in November so if you are about then give us a shout
  11. In countries where the Pit bull is banned it's the stafford that's used In countries where it's legal to own, the pit bull is used.
  12. Nice one Stiffy Now get your arse into 36 and we can have some fun before I bugger off to Oz Now you wouldn't happen to know a nice man in the stores would you? I need a new smock Really pleased for you mate, you've done yourself proud there. How do the NCOs like your rebel tapes? :11:
  13. Nice one mate! Hope mother and Bradley are both doing well
  14. Cheers for the info Jon, much appreciated Best of luck with the dogs in Europe
  15. That doesn't quite tie up with Sorry mate, I'm not trying to get at you here and I hope you aren't taking this personally.
  16. Why four dogs on what is only a little pig though Jon? That's what I object to. I've seen dogs on pigs and that's not a great picture at all. Pig hunting does not need that kind of publicity one little bit. I think in cases where human intervention is needed to despatch the quarry, then stopping to take a photo while four boof headed dogs hang off a young pig isn't effective or humane and can only be detrimental to the hunting scene. How do you gauge the boar to be 200lb Jon? Looks like a small one to me. I dont' think anyone finds the image shocking mate. It's th
  17. Seriously mate, I don't think that pic's going to do you any favours
  18. Cheers for that Jon. To be honest I don't like the idea of a dog "fighting" a boar one little bit. That's how you end up with a dead dog double quick time. No matter how tough the dog, it's going to meet a boar that'll kill it...just ask Dogoman over on his board. He had one of his best dogos (130lb if I remember rightly) killed by a boar. I like a dog with the sense to lug up the side and stay out of the way, that way you can hunt on without having to tend a knocked up dog. Obviously situations are not always this perfect, but I've found that dogs that stand and fight tend not to last lon
  19. Very interesting Jon. Two different types of work you've described there and I must admit to liking the hunting style rather than the walked in scenario. Can you tell me what benefits the Alano has over the Dogo as you say they are sometimes both used to hunt the pigs? I've hunted with some pretty good dogs (none of them mine) and they've all been a jack of all trades type affair (except one and he was an excellent finder/bailer) finding and catching on their own. What sort of temperatures are these dogs running in when you say they run all day? What's their style of holding? By that I mean do
  20. Jon, What kind of hunting is done with these dogs in Spain? Are they a catch dog like the Aussies favour? Or is the hunting more of a dog and gun game like most of the rest of Europe?
  21. Have you been sniffing the lighter fluid again? lol i did have a headache when typing that You didn't even type it :11: :11: :11: :11: :11: Are you available for weddings and bar mitzvahs?
  22. So are there any hunting line Ridgies over here? My step dad used to keep a few in Rhodesia during the war and he always rated them. I know a bloke into protection work who keeps a few too and he finds the stuff over here sadly lacking. It seems that they are being compared along side a bull cross for some reason.....so what do they bring that a bull cross doesn't? I don't buy the longer legs thing as no-one I know is complaing that a bull cross is too short, or the better feet thing either as I know some bulls with feet you'd die for. At the end of the day the Ridgeback is a hound. N
