    Looking for dog

    Hey guys,

    Lost our dog in an accident just before Xmas last year and now the Mrs approved the search for a new one.
    Looking for an older dog, not a puppy. So if you guys would know someone who want to re home a dog or park it for a few years we could offer a home.
    We live rural and hunt deer and goats year round so it wouldn't waste away in the kennel. I have an in house vet and a hyperactive 2 yo son to keep any dog fit.

    Thanks BF
    Nothing is tough about having a 70 lb bow and looking like an uncoordinated praying mantis while trying to draw it back.

    Sometimes it comes handy, but we can see things a bit differently when it comes to work with stock.

    Make contact with a local canine rescue organisation. We took on a Great Dane bitch who was left tied up without food or water that has fitted in real well once she has realised that a raised hand is not going to beat on her.

    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I don't know anything about it. She had eye dog head with tricolour marings, but a big round black body so not sure if she's pure eye dog. PM me your number I'll pass it on

    Really good page on FB called Retired Working Dogs, they rehome heaps of cool dogs of varied ages. Based in Paihiatua I think.

    Hi BF
    I have a two year old nuetered male lab/curly coat cross dog that is a very goos retriever that I am looking to find a home for. I ended up with him whe a ate of mine inherited him. He has been shot over this duck shooting and has a very high prey drive He has been on two deer hunts in the Ruahines, but hasn't experienced a deer yet. He will make a great hunter, and he is full of energy. PM me if you are interested.
    Regards
    7mm
