As far as hunting goes hes not that good... took him out with a mates very good finder/bailers one weekend and all he managed to do was teach my mates dogs to bail possums up trees... mate wasnt happy at all haha.

I've had 3 staffs over years still got one . two of them sunk like stones (wanted to swim tried it multiple times)and the 3rd which we still have is a absolute fish she will be out in 4ft surf no worries out swimming in middle of the kaituna river where we live and she will do it with a 1.5m by 4inch think piece of drift wood in her mouth too no worries
