Why has there been a split between "trials, pedigree, and bird dogs" and "NZ hunting, pig, utility dogs?"

Why has there been a split between "trials, pedigree, and bird dogs" and "NZ hunting, pig, utility dogs?"
Does the split cause an issue for you? Growth is a good thing and seperating areas helps let things evolve in the nature that the subtopics individually possess
IT wasn't broke - why change it?
Not at all, but when it's the only section being divided, it comes across as odd?Quote:

:wtfsmilie:
Fair enough, will be an interesting experiment then. I doubt it will help, even if you give the 'trials, pedigree, bird dog' people their own space, they do read and comment in other sections too :)Quote:

The point I was making is if your into it there was nowhere for it, I dont read most of the dog threads and apart from them I read everything.
There is a reason for that.;)
Pretty much all my mates are dog followers(pig hunters) not one of em are on here.
They have an entire forum devoted to it, assuming monteria forum is still going?Quote:

I know my posts about lanyards, beer etc were probably airy fairy stuff...I apologise completely if any have brought about this change...I am sure many of us would be interested in pig dogs and how they are trained etc cos we are for hunting dogs...
PS...my dogs are hunting dogs...
You guys do nothing but good in my mind Tussock, I don't envy some of the shit you have to deal withQuote:

Let it run I say, if it has legs we can train it or take it out the back and put it down if it doesn't.
Seems to me like the real problem is some precious little flowers getting butt hurt over fuck all
I was thinking more along the lines of the guy that got his dander up because I asked him what a post had to do with the topic of discussion, deleted his post and messaged me telling me not to be so mean
Thats' the thing Tussock, I like this place a lot. When Phillipo E-mailed me telling me there was a new forum to away from the old rubbish, I signed up immediately. I'm not sure when, but I would have to had been one of the very early members here. I like what it set out to achieve, and how it has grown so well on the strength of its members and the atmosphere they create.Quote:

Especially dog people, they usually tend to be a rather black and white bunch.
Theres alot of cross over tussock in the dog world, alot of dogs are used on both game and birds, i say get rid of the trial and pedigree words from the headings
And just have a bird dog section and a hunting dog section? Aren't they one in the same?
