Thread: Is this the end of stapling your pig dog?

Every pig hunter I have met seems to consider it some kind of badge of honour all the scars on their dogs. Why not just run bailers if you really have to use dogs? Or better still just run a pointer and shoot the bloody thing without stirring it up and chasing it halfway across the country before killing it.
I have never liked wild pork, have had it quite a few times (all dogged) and it literally makes me dry retch and I'm fairly certain that their diet and the fact they have died in extremely stressful circumstances has a lot to do with that

jesus still at the divide and conquer ryan.??
you wont each much wild pork [which you don't care for so couldn't give a fuck anyway ]if you don't have dogs.
personaly I prefer it over even venison and yes like any meat if its a older animal.
that's chased the crap out of or half ripped to shreds its shite.
I no more tar all pig hunters in the rip them in half club or the wasteful bastards who left two rotting down my public dog excercise park as all pighunters.
i was proud to be one in my younger days and know the love of good dogs at their best.
if it illustrates anything its the old adage a few ruin it for the many
.

But this is NZ and for now run the hounds. Perfect no agreed , that said neither is poison , baiting or trapping. But we do it for free the others cost the tax payer ..and the dogs they love it!

more to the point they love it cos we love it and them.
