Last Pig Hunting Trip

[kiwi 4]

yeah we do tomo,thats why alot of hunters brand thier dogs,mind you if i was a theif i would only steal a branded dog as ya wouldn't bother branding a average or inexperienced pup/dog lol. but the value of a good dog over here is huge dogs have been sold for 5k and 8k. lost or stolen dogs have a better than average chance of making it back home though thanks to our large population of pighunters and magazines and club systems. plus the fact most pighunters hate dog thieves :realmad:

in the waikato/kingcountry snatch, on the west coast of the north island.

snatch it's illegal to hunt Roos with dogs, but never heard anyone being caught doing it. No one worries about that law.

one of australias first dogs, if not the first dog that was created in australia(im sure it was the first but cant backup with evidence at the moment) was the australian kangaroo dog

 

ive seen pictures from the 1800's and early 1900's of roo dogs, basically they looked very greyhoundish, some were a lot bigger then a greyhound

 

basically they were greyhound crossed with deerhound, bred like that

 

you can get smoothcoats and long coats, even from the same litter.
