Oldelkhunter Campfire Ranger O Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 29,383	Originally Posted by gkt5450 Oldelkhunter, We have our third Airedale and they are a real pleasure. First was an Oorang strain and next two were a Mountain strain. These are muuch larger than conformation Airedale show dogs and were bred from hunting ‘dales from generations. I don’t hunt them as intended but track w them a long walk them a couple of times daily. They are real intuitive and smart. Also, love children. I believe that will be my next choice a few years down the road as well. My wife is pushing for another Bull Mastiff as well. So far since my wife and I have been together Female Golden Retriever Male and Female Rottweiler Wirehaired Dacshund Currently own a male and female Parson Russell terrier and a Male Bull Mastiff. I get hit pretty hard when I lose a dog and I have seldom immediately replaced one so sometimes a few years lapse.

I have said, and posted this before, but when Karen Blixen was asked if she could have one thing back in her life she responded that she would like to go on safari with Bror once again. If I were asked to have anything in life back, it would be to hunt big mule deer with Pearl again...the best of times... "...the left considers you vermin, and they'll kill you given the chance..."

Most people that look at ours are just scared of how she looks with the dark colors and muscular body... Last edited by Rockymtnhigh; 02/17/19.

And that's true. when I was introduced to that one the Trainer said " theres about a 50/50 chance this one will bite you..."

The dog has mythical status in our family, super kind and gentle with kids and women, and even more gentle with pregnant women, but with men he was a phugging brute. Smart as hell was his reputation, and had backpacking neck and shoulders. I would love to have old King back. Story has it I sneaked out of the house when I was 2, next thing the parents heard was screaming down by the pool. They looked out and saw me hanging over the pool, King had me by the ass. Maybe he was going to drop me in and got caught, but I'd like to believe he was looking out for me.

That said, a Catahoula can be a real handful. They are a very tough, talented dog, that will keep you on your toes. Mine is a real goof ball. Play, play, play is all she wants to do. She plays rough and feels as though she should always come first. She is high maintenance, but we have a LOT of fun. Here is my list. Field Bred English Cocker Blackmouth Cur British Labrador German Shorthair Mountain Cur German Shepherd

He is crazy about my wife, and fun to watch herd her around while walking him. Once twilight he will sit on porch front legs straight out and rear on deck. He watches. Real absence of barking. Only barks when necessary or just prior to strike. Teeth like a barracuda and jaws like an alligator. But very loving...if that makes sense. And he is a clown! America, Our Country and we’re taking it back.
