Update on Kate

[Howling Dog]

Guys now that I've worked out how to post photos, thought I might give an update on the dingo pup from my articles in Bowhunting Downunderhttp://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y43/Dingo29/dingoes/P1010881.jpg

This her about a month ago,watching her natural hunting instincts when she goes bush with me is unbelievable!

[Howling Dog]

Coach I used to let run for a couple of hours late in the afternoon,
the neighbours ducks copped a flogging, he suspected her but never caught her. Now I walk her on a lead each afternoon and take her for a big bush run each weekend. She is great, but if it moves her thinking is chase it and kill it! I have watched her actually run down hares.

[Howling Dog]

Yes and she was desexed last month

Just wondering if owning a dingo will make u stop shooting them?
(i was just checkin out your photo of the nice 1 u shot)

Cheers Cam 8)

ps. Loved the article :wink:

[Howling Dog]

I have three dogs love them all (Kate & Tiara) are both dingo cross Tiara I found out bush over six years ago but a totally different temperament to Kate, Tiara I can trust. Kates law is if it moves chase it! I still chase dogs at every oppurtunity, killed six since I found Kate but about three weeks ago I saw a dog the same size as Kate only fifty yards from the original den and I believe to be the other black pup in the photo at the front of the den. I must be getting old and soft I didn't shoot. When it smelt me it went like a rocket, so I didn't even get a photo.

[Bowmancam]

Nothin wrong with being a little soft now and then (except when the lights go out :wink: )

Thats one of the reasons why i put up the brumbie thread,to see if i was the only softy here... YAY i'm not alone :wink:

Im not a softy, im a hard, tuff man (thats what i tell myself anyway) :wink:

Love the photo's H.Dog

Cheers Cam

I'm as weak as piss sometimes, but I reckon thats what makes a true hunter and is also the difference between killing and hunting. Does that make sence to anyone.

Some days its just good to look and not touch.

[hunting_mainiac]

can she bark? :? .

if she can then she isnt dingo

[Howling Dog]

No when the others bark she just sits quietly. She is music to the ear when she howls, I just love the sound.
Although I read an article on the internet that said if they live with domestic dogs that they may learn to bark in time?

[HOOD]

HD glad to see that she is doing well. How did the other dogs take to her???? are they good mates or not??

[Pitty]

HD loved those articles u wrote, really top stuff, what Adam said makes perfect sense, there is a big difference between being a hunter and a shooter, it has got nothing to do with being soft, I think its called compassion.

[Howling Dog]

Hood, she is part of the family

[Howling Dog]

Guys 12 months since my last post on this thread. This is my girl to-day.

[rohan]

no real hunter goes out and shoots everything that moves.

[adam]

She certainly is a fine looking dog alright.

[XTfreak]

Nice looking girl she is.
I'm as weak as p@# sometimes, but I reckon thats what makes a true hunter and is also the difference between killing and hunting. Does that make sence to anyone.

Found them on the day they were being born & took Kate 5 weeks later when I found her abandoned at the den. There was a 2 part article in Bowhunting Downunder on her, Adam was on the cover Aug/Sep 2003?
Will post an update soon, getting close to her Birthday!
Cheers

[Grunter]

Way to go Kate. I am with Bazza on that story. I know a lot here who have watched her grow from a small pup to the fine dog she is now. Great to see her having a ball as a family member with you Ken.
