Thread: Foxy Deer Dogs

Does anyone out there have a Foxy or small terrier breed as a deer dog? Can you tell me a bit about your experience, how do they go in the cold/elements? I have seen hunters with Foxy X and Mini Foxy dogs but never really had a chat to them (passing on the track).

Any comments much appreciated

Hey Dougie, the guy who taught Bryce how to hunt uses one. Do you still have Bryce's number? He'd give you the down low. If not I can text it to you.

Mate had a foxy pig dog .He used to get very cold in winter in wet tussock as they not big enough to go over it , so used to be as wet as a shag most of the time , and poor thing would shiver uncontrollably . Don't no how you would train one to heel ? . They pretty much want to chase down, anything and every thing !

Hmmm yeah that's what I was thinking! 7mmsaum and I saw one as a deer dog once, it was very young. And super tiny.

Bottom of the creek? He's recovered well.

my bosses sons foxy cross had a couple of fallow bailed up once. she loves chasing reds to so im sure with a lot of time and patience you can train any dog to do anything?? look at mine for example I started running him by himself and 12 weeks old never ran with other dogs till over a year and a half old. 1st possum at 4-5 months old now he catches pigs and goats aswell. but I spent probably 7 days a week training him for the first year

Not for an indicator. It's a Terrierist, it wants to seek and destroy

i have a allmost 3 year old mini fox terrible and ive tryed training him on deer, he would do very well but unfortunatly he loves possums and rabbits/hares far too much and i cannot call him off them when the chase is on. he does not bark at deer yet he barks at pigs and goats. i do know another guy who has a foxy and he seems to be a great little deer dog, follows blood trails and also points on 3 feet when he winds one, munta my foxy does this also.
i wouldent rule foxys out
