    makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside to read all these offers, and not a piss taker in sight. Well done, fellas. Now, who can lend me 2000 quid? ;-)

    Jesus, no wonder Engl;and found it soooooo easy to colonise Australia, the place is full of f*****g chav thieves. Sympathies to you mate. I recommend you get a no nonsense psycho guard dog to patrol yer property while you sleep or it'll keep happening. Try this cross, pit/doberman, as a full time guard. I can't recommend this cross enough. In my case he was totally nuts, couldn't be loose around anyone he didn't know. Cuz

    Here's my classified ad for the fella in the vid. Proven young hunting dog auction, starts at 1,ooo squid. He's a proven, hardcore rabbiting, hare dog who will do fox and red, roe, fallow and sambar deer as well. Excells at lamping but really comes into his own in daylight on any quarry. I have no doubt he'd even do pigs given the chance. As can be seen in the video, this dog will run all day, all night and be ready for the next day. A sure fire bag filler for all professional hunters. Do I hear 1000 Squid?

    Here's one for the terrier men to be proud of.

    it's not my dog but I really wish it was. The f****r has some speed on him, check out the skilfull way he negotiates this rabbit lol

    Well, anyone with a couple of thousand squid to spare can go to Australia, catch as many rabbits as you like and transport them back to merry old England to replenish the stocks. Australia has tried and tried to rid its shores of the bunny, to no avail. Sometimes they come back in PLAGUE proportions. Also, why don't hunters with the room to do so breed a few wild ones and release them in areas that are not dogged heavily? Or are there no such areas in the UK? Just a thought. Check this for the number of rabbits in a good year in Oz.

    She'll grow out of it mate, she'll twig soon enough that she should be following you. The number of times I've had to chase a young dog around when it's gone off after other dogs is amazing. She'll start to hang closer to you at around the year, 14 month stage, in my experience.

    I once had a high energy staffie who shook and shivered a lot, no matter what the weather hot or cold. You could look at her body language and see her tail was up and she was confident etc, so it had f**k all to do with fear or nerves. She was confident around strangers, kids, livestock etc. My vet had no idea what was wrong either, he just said something along the lines of ''Mate, some dogs just shiver''

    I can't speak for the fox hunting in England cos I have never hunted charlie here. But in Oz, where the paddocks can be 3000 acres and the ground fairly sandy so difficult to get a good earth in, I've seen all sorts of dogs catch charlie on the run. Every sheep farmer in the country has a sheep dog or cattle dog that doubles as a fox killer. I've been out many times with farmers checking the mob at lambing and they bring their kelpies and aussie cattle dog crosses with them to belt any foxes they see patrolling the paddock. Yes, these dogs didn't catch every time, but they were fit working d

    Good luck with yer pups, mate. They're smart looking little dogs. I'll be interested in seeing how you go with them. As an ex pig hunter in Oz, I used labrador crosses quite a few times over the years. Fila/lab, greyhound/bull/lab and EBT/lab to name 3. These three all made the grade.
  11. ReggieCuz
    Nice looking pups, mate. I used a dobie/pitbull cross on pigs in Australia. I bought him as a guard dog to start with but took him out with the other dogs on hunts and he took to it like a duck to water. Very smart, hard as nails and very agile. I think dobvies are underated dogs, they add legs and intelligence to some crosses. Here's mine

    hahaha, I reckon the trouble and strife is trying to take over as head game catcher in the family, mate. Sounds like she's done a good job training yer pup ;-)

    Yeah, it's a showdog thing more than anything else. Of course you don't want a dog with exagerated knock knees or pigeon toes or front legs that bow out like Arnie Scharzeneger cos that'd f**k with it's performance. But a slight knock knee or pigeon toed back legs doesn't matter. An old Bully/Labrador I had had knock knees and she worked for 10 years. She did suffer from arthritis though, I spent a fortune on anti inflammatories for her. But that was genetic, not cos of her knees.
  14. ReggieCuz
    from my understanding of it, it's when you look at your dog's back legs as it's walking and see that they come together at the knee.

    I think he means cowhocked too.

    Surely it comes down to individual dogs and how they work? Breed has f**k all to do with it. I've seen so called soft mouthed labradors hanging like a tick from a pig's ear where you've had to break their grip with a stick. My mum had a working cocker spaniel who would DEMOLISH rats to the point where you could hardly see they were rats. Yes, a lot of bull crosses inherit the shake and rip and shake again gene, but a lot don't. Oh and that Wagner, he sings like a tomcat with his bollocks caught in a razor wire snare!!!

    We don't call our running dogs lurchers in Oz, we call them roodogs or staghounds. There are plenty of good ones out there still. They tend to be a heavier type than you use here in England. Lots of deerhound crosses and greyhound crosses. Smooth and rough coats.

    lol....coursing with a cheetah. What happened to its chase instint? It was shown 20 odd bunnies and didn't bat an eyelid!! Cats!!!!!!! They operate differently to dogs. Way smarter, way lazier, not interested in trying to please!

    With that breeding the least you can do is tie yer dog up, walk 3 metres away from it, hunker down to dog eye level, whistle up yer dog's attention and then press the camera shutter. Mate, you've probably got a handsome dog there, take itys pic. Eye level is the key!!!! Hunker down. A dog photographed from above looks like a stumpy dwarf and a dog who aint paying attention looks like it's being beaten. I see the dog though, nice one

    England's just too over crowded. Means you can't set foot out yer yard without a thousand people sussing you out. Stop it, mate. I love england but I don't need to hear about the shite involved. Let me stand proud with the falsehoods of old english life!! Oh, and NO f*****g SUREENDER

    Here's another one of my dogs, taken when he was just on L plates. He was a pitbull greyhound mix. He was a beauty, Feast yer eyes on Runner ;-)
  22. ReggieCuz
    While I'm here, though this is not my dog, he is a litter brother of my dog, they are identical in build and size.

    The quarry is unbelievable. If you've got the dog australia has the quarry. Roos, deer (sambar, red, fallow), goats, scrub bulls, camels, horses, cattle, donkeys, goats, pigs, foxes, hares, rabbits, rats, mice, wild dogs (not to be confused with pure dingoes). Actually, the only thing I won't hunt is dingo. I reckon if we can harness dingo blood we are getting close to a good hunting dog. The variety is endless but the rules are a f*****g nightmare. As a general rule in WA it's okay to hunt ANY feral as long as the animal libbers don't make a fuss. Lucky for hunters there is more country

    nice shape so far, looks like it's got good bones in its legs. Nice nose. It looks like its got potential to be a good lookimg dog. Make it so by training it right. What's the breeding by the way? If it's a hare dog I'm outta my depth.
  25. ReggieCuz
    nice pack, mate. Speed and tenacity
