  1. Gday all. Been a while, hope you have all been well.  Chasing a well Breed nose dog. Only want something from 6w -6m old. Have a had some bad luck trying to breed with my own line so Im needing some new blood. Will be hunted in the mountains so no big heavy dogs. Got enough bailers so preferably something that will swing. Cheers 

  2. Welcome to the site. My personal opinion is you’d be a lot better off finding and hunting with someone in your local area or someone from the area your going to be hunting in. Tag along for a few months even a year and get to know what hunting with dogs is all about. You’ll learn what style of dogs are going to be best for the area your hunting. Different breeds/styles are better suited in different country. You’ll have a Great more chance in training a pup off another experienced dog rather then the pup trying to teach its self. As stated above it’s a lot more easier to train one pup at a time. There’s several questions that you’ve got to answer yourself before you can choose the breed Of pup you want, will you need a finding dog for the country your hunting ? Will you just need a sight dog ? Do you want to hunt with Luggers or bailers ? There’s a lot to learn so you’d really be best getting in with someone with plenty of experience and learn the way they hunt and what dogs work best for them. Good luck with whatever direction you take

  3. Find yourself a local hunter who hunts the same country you do with success and see if you can possibly get a pup out of the dogs they use.id be patient and wait for the right breed from a local rather then getting something from Another area/state ect .Everyone’s going to have a different opinion on what dogs are best. It all comes down to the style of dog you want. If your hunting thick mountain country your going to want a dog with plenty of bite. Be prepared to possibly go through a few dogs before you get the ideal bailer that you’re wanting. Good luck ??
