We went down this road before. Yes a bullx would be fine but you need a full pack. We had 40 dogs split into two packs yesterday. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'll ask Alectoris to come on and explain ? Hi mate. These dogs aren't allowed in some regions here (mine is one of them). It really is a political issue. Let's just say that in the last elections Walt Disney was able to put a politician in many local governments. Since banning hunting was completely out of reach, a couple of accidents involving cattle and dogos were the perfect excuse for these guys to ban their use here. Trekkers, bikers, mushroom recollecters and such also put pressure to make this ban effective so, from last season, dogs with wide chests and block heads are not allowed for hunting. Hopefully this will change soon but at the moment it has meant that many dog pack handlers ("rehalas" are called here) have had to get rid of great alanos, presas and dogos. Anyways, I'm glad you enjoyed yesterday's hunt. You really walked a few miles in rough terrain! We definitely have to try that dog of yours with these pigs! ?? 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ALECTORIS 113 Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 The main blood is still podenco. There's a heavy type called "Valduezas" specially improved for boar and deer. They usually try to get as close as that morphology as possible; that is try to keep the nose, cleverness and stamina of true hunting podencos and the power of a boxer or a local mastiff, much less dominant and aggressive than dogos and, being more muscled, less that these last ones. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mushroom 12,352 Posted January 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 They should be able to catch up to one. How he'd hold or follow up, I have no idea tbh. A large boar I'm sure he'd have a go but seriously doubt he would be able to get to terms with it alone. Some of the dogs yesterday had what looked like collie in their make up and were quite small and light. Cabron is around 36kg and very agile so he should be ok..... he won't be alone out there when he goes, I'm sure Quote Link to post Share on other sites
