thanks for the compliments. She is 27 1/2 inches @ the shoulder and right at 98 lbs

She is the Bloom Brothers RIP dog bred to a 3/4 Dogo 1/4 American Bulldog.
Google the Blooms Brothers and your Sure to find RIP videos. Though he is hard to get to my other RCD Pups comes from working Dogs. Here is my Younger pup. He is 8 months old and has been on 4 or 5 pigs. he is 1/2 Pit 1/2 Great dane. So the breeds are available to most but the hard part is to find a dane that isn't too big has drive. As most know Great Danes were bred for Hunting Boar.

Yeah got thier DVD's RIP looks alot like the dogs we hunt here. So im guessing you bred RIP when the brothers came over to the US to do some filming??? Beautiful dog either way Thanks for the background info on the dog.

Aloha!

She was bred By Cody Weiser but yeah thats when it happened.

Good Doggin' to ya!

Aloha!

Dogem, Huh???

In the above quote I was telling nosightsneeded that his dog was beautiful and reminded me of some great dogs ive had through the yrs. I am not out there to wipe out the population etc either so not sure if your post was talking to me or just a general comment???

Good Doggin'

Nosightsneeded-

Heres a pic of one of our Airedale crosses:

good looking sum buck. People always give you funny looks with the Hairy Dogs.

fine looking dog you have there nosightneeded, hope she does well for you. recon the hair would come fom a bit of wolfhound blood back a few generations a popular breed to be added to our pig dogs. sight hound crossed with a bit of bull terrier blood is in the background of many pigdogs over here. add a bit of dane/masstiff blood and you have a good mix.

totally agree with you about the RCD's big fast dogs make short chases and quick catches.

hogemdownsouth I can see that you are tying to perserve a huntable population of hogs so you can keep your sport going and good on you. But for us over here it is a totally different as I have stated earlier. An to be honest aussie hunters really could not be bothered to feed a sorry dog that took all day to catch a pig.

good hunting
steve

NSN- Here its not so bad with the funny looks as Hairy dogs are very common and sought after LOL!!!

Yeah Steve I believe youre right about the wolfhound blood in the breedings. That was/is a popular breed there in the pig dogs they have nice size to them as well. A friend of mine is contemplating bringing some in to breed with dogs he has now.

The Bull Arab crosses are doing well just about to start the Pure BA pups here soon.

Would love to hunt Australia someday my Dad hunted there in the 90's he loved it.

Great Doggin' to ya!
Dom

here is how her dad is bred.

NSN- Great bloodlines thats the way to do it in Hawaii we call them "POI" Dogs which just means they are a multiple cross bred dog which is pretty much what most hunters run around here.

Common crosses here in Hawaii include:
Hound (Mostly Walker's,Plotts and Greyhounds with some bluetick and redbone here an there)
Airedale
Bull (Mostly APBT but some other bull breeds as well AB is gaining)
Rhodesian Ridgeback
Bird (Mostly pointers)
BMC
Catahoula
Saluki
Whippet

Happy Doggin'

Dom

seems the hawain approach to catching pigs is very simular to our own when it comes to our dogs. What of australia did your father come to the experance can vary quite a bit in different parts of the country.
This is me an my current dogs.

Stevemac- Yes, the approach is VERY similar to your style of hunting just wish we had some flat terrain around here too. I remember him saying something about Adelaide but im not sure if thats where they hunted or just stayed for part of thier trips there.

Beautiful Dogs you got there!

WOW that baby is built like a brick.how is she crossed up. My son has a reg. American Bulldog and is planning a cross on a full blood airdale anyone ever heard of a similar cross and did it work out?

"nosightsneeded" I love the look of your female she has the looks of speed and power and just downright beautiful.What is her breeding looks american bulldog and other breeds thrown in with some wire coated.I want to try hog hunting have all ways had Trigg/Walker cross to hunt bobcats,Fox and Lion with,but thinking about selling out the small game dogs and trying Hog hunting for awhile.Soooo tell me about your breed and maybe I can get started out the right way and not try to reinvent the wheel. thanks frank
