Out for her first hunt :)

This is my pooch bailey. GSP x Lab. He’s a gun on ducks and retrieving, but as far as bush or deer hunting goes, he’s too excited to be in open country and just enjoys running freely. Great for fitness, doesn’t matter how far we hike he seems to have boundless energy. Bloody good family dog too, especially with the young fella.
Here's a little heading dog cross bitch I'm starting with a view to deer and goats. Her name is Kahu.
Calm, biddable and already giving everything the eye.

I've been trying to train Jed as a deer dog for the last 18 months. Still got a way to go but getting there.
The other night Jed found me a deer that I probably would not have found. No blood and 20 odd metres in mountain beech scrub over a log.
He even managed to indicated a deer just off the track a short distance to the truck. I could have shot it if i had been more on to it. He didnt move when it ran off either. Good boy. :thumbsup:
Im hoping to get him away a bit more over the holidays and keep him going.

Chewie, 20 months, didn’t make the cut as a police dog.
Brother to Caesar, the police dog stabbed at Whangarei, last weekend
We still only have one dog, with a head at each end, like some kind of weird arse mythical creature. Hours it'll sit like this, one end sleeping, the other end watching, for something to kill.

First deer for the pup, shot from 170m and let her find them. Attachment 101739
Proud moment :)
Here's our little girl, Sally, she's a pet more than a hunting dog but does like rabbits , Possums and Wallabies. Antlers on stags scare the shit out of her. Great companion though.Attachment 101905Attachment 101906

Gorgeous dog, @Tikka7mm08. Looks staunch as!
@Flyblown not too staunch, was fixated on first ever hare. Here he is on the right...hard to beat the cuteness of Lab puppies.

this is mauser Attachment 104227
Mauser... @northdude did you get him to be like the Rottweiler Metzgerhund in Bavaria, the Butcher Dogs? They would be hitched up to a small wagon to pull the meat up and over the hills to the next village. He would make a good deer recovery dog.
we wanted a Rottweiler as that's all ive ever had but they are a bit beyond our budget these days so these little fullas came up should be similar build maybe a bit bigger hes an American bulldog cross sharpei he seems pretty smart so far and has a good nose as well mrs northdude is doing some basic obiedience with him and he seems to pick it up pretty fast want to try him at hunting never trained a hunter before so will have to research that one weighed him yesterday 10kg at 10.5 weeks
My Staffy bitch on hearing the news that the Staffordshire Bull Terrier had just been voted Britain's Favourite Dog 2019.

Now I know this won't mean much to most of you, but if you knew battles we'd had with Breed Specific Legislation here in the mid 2000s after the Carolina Anderson attack, and all the other media reports of dog attacks attributed to the Stafford... We worked really hard to try and get the powers that be to understand why a mongrel cannot be attributed the name of a pedigree breed. Me and the wife got involved to the point of testifying to the BSL Select Committee in Wellington in 2004 at the Beehive, we presented with Bob Kerridge the CEO of the SPCA at the time, and had our dog Sir Ed with us (he's long gone). Sir Ed was a made up name we gave him at the time, because his actual name was Bollox.
I turned down an interview live on Holmes - knew that wasn't going to end well. If you have dealt with any of those media people (agenda peddling scum), then you'll know what I mean. But we did RNZ and local radio, and got a huge turnout from the Kennel Club members at a rally which made the TV... and slowly the tide turned and the threat to the Nanny Dog dissipated.
I'll have to fess up - when it comes to cats and vermin, these Staffords of ours are deadly. No hiding from that fact. Ours were never socialised with cats, we don't like cats here cos we're birders. Its just the way their instinct as terriers is programmed, same for our Jack Russells. But if you're a person, then you are an instant target for cuddles and tickles, like it or not. If you're not a dog person, don't visit. If you are infirm in anyway, expect to be nannyed, close up and personal. If you are very young and dependent, expect to have canine company, like it or not. Tennis ball? Make your peace, and give it up. If you want to have a play fight in the house or garden - or especially a real fight - expect Boss Dog to come and break it the fuck up! No interpersonal conflict permitted whatsoever.
So yeah, excuse the emotional waffle. Just that the news that the Staffordshire Bull Terrier aced the top award in the UK was massive for the breed. Because owners of well bred pedigree SBTs know the world over that the media savaging they've had the last 20 years or so is a rort of the highest order.
Very hard in this PC day and age to actually describe the "irresponsible dog owner" in terms that don't get thrown back in your face as socio-economic-racial-stereotyping-prejudice. Got a brindle or tan mutt with a wide head standing twice the height of a SBT straining on a chain to try and kill you, out the back of a squalid dump in Puhinui? Must be a staffy... ooohh dangerous dogs.
I wouldn’t be jumping for joy flyblown, too much publicity like wining Crufts or a tv phone in competition such as you are celebrating could drive all that hard work back wards as it will spark an influx of less than ideal breeders cashing in.... last years was the French bulldog for instance.
Corker @Sideshow! He's not gonna let a few degrees below get in the way of fun. Unlike my Staffords, who walk on snow as if they were on hot coals. Useless in the cold. Completely crap.
Year th bugger just LOVES SNOW:roll:

Look at @Dundee dog wow!
It can reverse and look both ways to see if his ambush site has been spotted :thumbsup:
This is my girl Charlie meeting a deer for the first time. I missed getting a snap of the hongi, they actually touched noses, then she got a bit defensive and started to growl at it.Attachment 104746
I chucked this photo up in another thread.
It is a scanned photo of the weimaraner I had she lived to 18yrs.
This would have been about 1990-93.
As a deer dog she turned out pretty good.
Name was Chloe.
Was a photo of her and our party up on Helisikas wall for years.
