Thread: Will a fallow take on a dog

Next time you fellas are driving between Fairlie and Geraldine,stop at the cafe on top of the hill,or just drive hundy yards to west towards the lake and look into paddock below cafe.fallow stag lives with two water buffalo....and he appears to be the boss MOST of the year.

My dog Buck was in a Fallow mood one day, looking at me with Doe eyes when he happened across a deer, 'Look a Stag, Buck' I said. Buck is quite bright and Stag out like dogs balls, I could see him thinking to the Fallow 'Get in beHind', I told him "Doe not do that Stag, Buck, Doe the other one'. The Stag Bucked and Buck Bucked the stag back, I Hind in the brush and Doe not say a word. Bucks Stag Staggered Bucking Buck, I ran out of shit to say.......

What the fallow

OMG this thread is turning into a puntastrophy

I had a mate a few years ago who had emus and said when I took my dog to his place, watch out or those emus can kill your dog. Turns out when you have 50kg of no nonsense Rottie barreling towards you, you turn around and leg it
Of course I know what emus can do with their feet, and I'm sure fellows with a fallow with antlers can do a bit of damage, but an intent dog can also be a pretty serious contender. Although a 20kg heading dog will need to know what it's doing to get the better of one I would think

It is an interesting one, I think that if you are taking a single dog into the bush, then the dogs realistic expectation is that you are its pack. I am not a dog, so I can't say with any authority what the dog may or may not think on the matter, but, I have my theories. Anyway, back to what I was saying, kind of. A pack of dogs is more than well equipped to take down pretty much anything in this country (Apart from some Zoo animals, if they were to escape and become naturalised in our forests) because they all know where to be and how to hunt. When you have a single dog out in the sticks there is just no way you can be as effective as another dog hunting in that manner. So my theory goes that more single dogs may get attacked by Fallow than packs of dogs. Not that that was in itself the OP's question, but it is somewhere on the road to an answer.

I have not found an avalanche of literature about Fallow and dog encounters, perhaps it could be someone's thesis at university if they are looking for something new and exciting to do? You may laugh at that, a mate of mine once spent a year investigating the colour of baboons asses while engaged in mating rituals for his thesis. That bloke can tell you with some authority if a baboon wants to bang you or not by the shade of the colour of it's ass. I could never really see the real world application of this knowledge, apart from very niche scenarios where you were fucked either way, but there you have it. The more you know.

What I'm looking at there is actually Hare hair. Not here.
I dont seem to be able to post videos, but if someone who can would like to pm me their Whatsapp number, I'll send a video of some very weird Fallow buck behaviour for them to post up.
