Lets see some pictures of your hunting mutt or couch potato if you don't hunt with them.

Bakes
Condolences.
Hope you don't mind a pic of some "Yank" dogs. All these 3 hunt is the dinner plate.

Max & koda. (pig hunting)


Max and tiger.

Not at all tailgunner. That devil dog on the right looks like a happy little bugger

Nice actions shots Sam.

here you go bakes:

first is sako, my GSP working his magic

next is fargo, my new alaskan malamute pup, his work in the future will be blood tracking:


best regards

I wouldn't of picked a malamute as a good tracker Peter. Are they used much for that role in Denmark?

no not yet anyways, but they have an incredible nose(quite a few are used as rescue dogs) a mate of mine in norway, got me hooked on them.
he is a swiessdog handler in the valley where he lives, and only uses malamutes.
they are not dogs for everyone, because they are often to smart for there own good. but if you have extended expirence with tracking dogs, they are some of the best there is.
they work wonders on bear as well.
we will see where this little guy lands when he grows up, but it will be nice with a challenge for a change.

My GWP Lucy with a couple of sambar deer under her belt.

Stop laughing you bastards!! My little Maltese - she's no hunting dog but she's good company when camping out on dead brumby's waiting for the hogs to come in for a feast. Actually she has been known to give off a little growl when theres a big old boar hanging around.

Cheers.

GG

Ahhh OK......title said DOGS GG but other pets are ok I see you have a nice pillow for the poor little darling as well

Brody

My GWP bitch at 8mths.



She could almost be a sister for Lucy. At the moment she is still too silly to be a good sambar hunter-perhaps this winter

I do like the look of the GWP BUT having worked up here in the NT for awhile I don't like that grass seed catching coat

How refreshing to see a hunting dog that is in good WORKING condition and is good and fit as a working dog should be.

Agree Gryph. Thats a problem I have with some of my troops. Their dog gets chubby so they will chase the weight by adjusting the dogs rations not by uping the exercise. Pete Trembath (of the ABC show "flying vet" fame) is our vet we used when I was in Tindal. He told me that for a working dog you should see the last couple of ribs. Another bonus of keeping them lean is it puts less pressure on the hips as they get older.

Thats it i like to see a rib or two and having had a lifetime supply of pig, roo and fox dogs one cannot have a fat dog in his kennel if one expects his dogs to catch for him.

That GSP is in good nick,a pleasure to see!

Here is a pic of my 12yo GSP , although he's past his prime he still loves getting out for a hunt and is great company as well .

Jeeze mate, you haven't trained him well....he could've bought the rest of the stag in with him.

Thats all that was left of the stag by time he dragged it back to the house

Cheers.

Bakesey you know how they say "this thread is no good without pics"

A bitch! WOW

heres a photo of a yank dog from wyoming,doing what he does best.catching anything i sic him on

he has a real heeler type head on him too (Aussie cattle dog)

his grandma had just a splash of pit bull in her woodpile.goes to elk camp w/ me and stays in camp to keep the grizzly bears out,retrieves ducks and antlers,and my wife taught him to get a cold out of the fridge.no slap and tickle when hes in the room thou,you see hes my wifes dog and he "will" bite me if she makes the slightest noise.a dirty sock works pretty good.
