Those american bullies are just pitbulls with a lot of Johnson bulldog thrown in the mix. The fuckers couldn't finish a good walk let alone do any work, saddle backed, bow legged dwarfism mutts. It makes me laugh all the twats who think their hard in the states who own them. Yes, they're a powerhouse, but they have a 5 minute lifespan, like a hyundai AA battery from the pound shop.

That rough haired one looks like one of them Ewoks off Star Wars, but an ewok with rabies!

I've had spayed and unspayed bitches (mainly spayed though) who not only like to hump other dogs but also cock their legs on lamp posts etc just like males. They'll watch another dog piss on something and then piss there themselves.

nice black dog, mate. Looks well built in the shoulders and chest but not so cjesty he can't run.

wow, she really likes yer other dog ;-) Some sort of rapist

I had a guard dog (pit/dobie) who was soooo suspicious of strangers he wouldn't even take food off them. He was sooo suspicious he wouldn't leave the yard if a gate was left open because his one aim in life was to guard the property. I made him that way on purpose. I NEVER socialised him with anyone but me. If I had visitors I'd put him out the back. I don't think he ever got petted by another human apart from me. He was the best guard ever, well worth his food bill. He not only made sure none of my hunting dogs were stolen, he also guarded the house. Yes, the downside was he was a 38 kilogr

If it was me I'd build them some sort of run just so they can soak up the sunshine when it comes out. Dogs love to lie in the sun, even if it's just inside near a glass door that lets the sun in. Not to mention sunlight gives vitamin K. Maybe you could knock a hole in the roof and put a skylight in? That'd do away with the gloom. As for sawdust? I reckon it just captures the piss smell. I think a concrete floor hosed and brushed out regularly would be better.

i own sire to these pups there are pics in my gallery(jet) Nice one, mate. What size is Jet? I'm looking for a bigger type like around the 29''tts or bigger.

When I first looked at the pic it looked like the dog had his front left leg amputated and I'm thinking ''Jesus, that's a fit looking dog for a tripod'' Nice one

I've tried a few over the years, can't recall the brands, but my dogs always tore them to pieces within a months. Too expensive to keep replacing. I used to use those flat plastic bread crates (not sure if they have them here in England. They're about 3 foot square. I'd turn them upside down put a rubber mat on top and then old blankets. Cheap but effective beds for dogs and easy to keep clean, keeps them off the floor and the crates have enough give in them to be quite springy and comfortable.
-
any pics of sire and dam, mate? Are the pups smooth or hairy? What size are they expected to be at the shoulder and where are you? I'd be interested for sure, although they wouldn't really be doing any work, just lots of exercise and beach walks.

I like white dogs, they are easier to find at night. Not to mention I'm a racist mutha fucka ;-)
-
What a gay looking f*****g mutt you got there, mate. Looks like it couldn't chase a fat hampster around a shoebox, put that ferkin thing to sleep for f**k's sake, you'd be doing the dog world a favour. Just kidding pal, that looks like a nice'un.

At what point does a dog become a hound? Do the English, Irish, Welsh and Scottish hound men recognise a Bluetick Coonhound or a Black and Tan Coonhound or a plott or Catahoula? Sight and scent hounds differ in look, but they're hounds by name. If you cross a good scent hound with a good sight hound and then breed to type, have you succesfully bred a new type of hound? If so, at what point did the dog become a hound? Honest questions here. Yesteryear's hunting dog is today's hound. I would consider Australia's Bull Arab a hunting dog but many there classify it as a hound. here's a pic o

does anybody kennel a lurcher with a terrier
ReggieCuz replied to huntingryan's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
I've never taken the risk of kenneling dogs together of any breeding. Not saying you can't trust some dogs to not kick off, but is it worth it if they do kick off and you're not around to stop it? having said that, I know of dogs who have been kenneled together for years with no problems, usually a dog and a bitch together. You can usually trust the dog not to kick off but sometimes the bitch will, in my experience. I had a boxer dog (pig dogs) and a bull/greyhound dog and they were the best of mates on a hunt or on a walk etc, but as soon as you got them home again they'd start sizing each -
lovely looking dog, powerful and quick by the looks. If he has gameness he'd be welcome in my pigging pack. I had a bullgrey who never let me down with the oinkers, he looked just like yours.

When I get another dog in this country it'll be a nice deerhound cross. I like the tall hairy types. I'm not hunting it, I wouldn't know where to go. My hunting experience is limited to Ozzie pigs, rabbits and the occasional fox. I'm retired in this country. BUT, I can't say enough about a well bred hunting dog as a housepet. They're stable, quiet, sensible, obedient and calm. In Australia all my dogs (over 100 in 25 years) have been purpose bred working dogs. They make the best grafters and they make the best family pets. I want a nice tall 29tts or taller hairy dog to go with my old ty

Make the dog wait for his food. Make him sit and put he bowl down for him. Every time he tries to go for the food correct him and make him sit again. When you're good and ready let him at the food. Also, when he's feeding slip your hand at the bowl and, if he growls, correct him firmly and take the food away. Replace it again and make him wait till you're ready.

You get the same in Oz with the piggers. Lots of dreamers banging on about their dogs catching 15 bigguns single handed every day of the year. In my experience I would more catch a pig on most outings, but sometimes I wouldn't. Sometimes you get a pig an hour into your weekend hunt and it's a tad disappointing cos you wanted the whole weekend to be out in the bush. But, you gotta take your pig and get it to the freezer before it gets flyblown. Unless of course it's a big boar, then you keep hunting for a younger sow for the table and keep the boar for the dogs. I had some good dogs and

What the hell is that thing on the right? Did you get George Lucas's permission to use Chewbacca on this forum? Damn, that looks like a sheepskin rug thrown over yer sofa ;-)

My neighbours housepet springer is a maniac off the lead. He dashes straight into any cover and flushes out cats, fox, rabbits, birds, squirrels etc etc etc. He won't stop till he's covered every inch of the cover, no matter how thick and thorny. Then he tries to go back and start again. I've often told my neighbour his pet would make a good hunting dog but he takes him home, blowdries his coat and fattens him up. Fair play to him though, it's his pet. But this dog gave me a whole new respect for spaniels.

saluqihounds, some great pics there, mate. You've got some heavy snow too I see. As an aussie the snow is new to me and I'm always amazed to see short coated dogs having such fun in the stuff, it seems to bring out the pup in an adult dog. It brings out the grumpy old c**t in me. ;-)

For english quarry I have to question this cross. BUT, this cross would likely be a good start for a pig dog anywhere where pig hunting is common. I've seen pure rotties on pigs and they did well, I've also seen pure rotties who have turned tail and run for the hills as soon as a decent boar throws them 3 metres away. Rottie/greyhound would be good for big animals that can fight back. Whether or not they are fast enough to catch a rabbit or a hare is to be seen. Apart from that, I'd welcome a cross like this in my pigging pack in Oz. Depending on if the dog's got the balls to go back in aft

both for me too. In my experience bitches are a little more sensible than dogs. Dogs can get territorial and fight a bit at times, but then I've also found that a spaded bitch can get a little aggresive too. I've had spaded bitches who were fine with all dogs before they were spade and then, like 5 months after being spade, became right nasty little buggers with other dogs and bitches.

Never had a mangled fox, but in Australia some unscrupulous types would cut the ears of sows and boar pigs so hunting dogs couldn't get a hold of them and so they could continue to breed and keep the feral pip population up. I've seen plenty of lame, mangy, sick looking city foxes around though.
