    Two Catahoula x Heading dog pups in Taranaki at the moment up for grabs, I would love a Catahoula, all ways had a soft spot for them after hunting over one in the Naki years ago. I dont have a home at the moment so cant really justify a new pup in the kennel..

    Few pictures of Ziggy out and about down Canterbury last week. Great part of the country to get your dog out in the hills, will definitely be back for a few hunting missions

    Quick hike up Helicopter hill, plenty of old deer shit up on the top but gets a lot of day walkers in there.

    Took my 6 month old GSP for her first hunt on Sunday afternoon. Was very impressed with how she went with her first interaction with wild animals and scents

    Nice pups, unfortunately Bo doesn't have much leopard spots but he does have them, his skin under all his white fur is covered in leopard spots the hair just isnt. He's been an awesome dog picked up hunting very quickly and has a really strong nose and drive. Only issues I've had with him are possession issues have had to train that out of him as he's naturally quite possessive of things he considers his ie: my truck, me. Very quiet dog and been that way always never gets up and annoys new people or jumps up like lots of pups and other than guarding if he's inside at home he very rarely ever barks.

    Bo sounds like a great dog Ryan,

    Mines the same has gotten worse with resource guarding me especially when tied up at a cafe or a pub. Its getting worse and I have needed to revisit the way I am training her. She was a well socialized as a pup and currently has no issues down the beach or out with other dogs and about its just on the lead sitting down and any sticks and balls etc and just with other dogs not people.

    This is my first dog thats been like this, she is pretty timid and reactive, I have taken a step back and building up her confidence then will start the socialization with dogs on leads again

    Well Jack has started cocking his leg for a piss now so he must think he's a big dog
    Actually of all my dogs he has been the slowest to lift his leg at 8 months old.

    He is finally starting to listen too which is making a nice change

    Candace. Yet to see a rabbit (but man did she try to find the one she scented) let alone catch one, so if you have a large field in the Wairarapa with post and rail fences and a rabbit problem let me know. Probably need 2 whippets to catch a hare but willing to give it a go.

    Always identify your target beyond all doubt because you never miss and I will be missed

    Has been known to come, ahhh armed tramping.
    Capable of locating old gut piles, rotten scungy carcases within a 2 km radius.
    Now the German Shepherd on the other hand….
    He nui to ngaromanga, he iti to putanga.

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !
