New to the forum: from Australia

Hey, been on the forum for a couple weeks and thought I'd introduce myself. Grown up in a farming family and spent most of life up to this point helping my family training and breeding stock and hunting dogs. Main breeds I've been involved with are Kelpies and Blue heelers for stock work and staghounds, wolfhounds and greyhound crosses for hunting. In the last few years I got heavily into feral pig hunting with dogs and ended up getting my first purebred APBT and since then it's been a love affair. I currently only own one dog, a 1/4 kelpie, 1/4 APBT 1/2 wolfhound bitch who's getting a little long in tooth after catching me literally 1000's of pigs due to a move away from areas with feral pigs but as her she's getting old I'd love to get an APBT pup from good hard working lines to start working on. Anyway, I don't claim to be some master dogman with a wealth of experience but have seen a thing or two with working dogs and would love to share with like minded people and hopefully learn a bit more about these awesome dogs. I'll also attatch some photos of dogs I've bred in the last two years that are currently catching friends some good pigs.

 

And here is a picture of my current bitch with a 10 month old chocolate and white APBT bitch pup I had

 

Welcome to Game-dog!

 

Yeah there's plenty of em getting round. Depends on where you are obviously but pretty much the entire northern half of the country has a feral pig population

 

Cheers mate appreciate it and will do

Depends where I go. Have hunted some of the mountain country in nsw, also hunted huge open acreage further north on big cattle properties and crops as well. My first hunting dog was a bull arab but he got taken by a crocodile on a hunt up in the northern territory. I think I've seen you on ozziedoggers shotgun?

 

Probly have. I look at several sites all with the same screen name.
