Thread: Pup for family pet and deer stalking

Where are these pure dogos? Does any white mastiff pass off as one or were there actually imports?

imported years ago. still a few around if you know where to look.

Fascinating, and great to know someone kept them going in the face of kneejerk policy making. Thanks gents

Hi I have been using a foxy bitch for the past 2 1/2 yrs hunting deer successfully I have now bred her with another foxy both good hunters and great family pets. I have 2 pups left
Well worth thinking about or come and watch her work. Phil

Is the foxies any good on South island Waimate wallabies .I here the bullets bounce of rocks .

i would like to say yes but sadly no the foxy finds it hard to move thru the tussock. where the tussock has been grazed they do ok. remember that u want the to chase the wallabies out and this is not good for a deer dog. a good huntaway is best.

I swear by my wirehair x vizsla x lab, he's only 24 months but already a great pet as well as deer dog. Comes to work everyday no probs, hangs inside with the mrs no probs but does get easily over excited with kids and gets abit retarded. IMO if you want a pet and deer dog is that you have to train the mrs just as much ! If my mrs starts spoiling Sika he goes backwards with basic obedience fast
