The mainstay
of Australian pig hunters, the good old cross bred hog dog.
Crossed to
add individual traits of various pure bred dogs, I don't think a
cross hasn't been tried except for maybe the toy breeds. Most
have a dash of bull somewhere in their linage, but the rest can
be a combination of virtually anything. The crosses add what is
referred to as Hybrid Vigor and just about everyone that pursues
the wild boar have their favorite combinations. Many a beer has
been downed whilst discussing the best combinations, a habit
that will continue with time.
These pages
will try and depict some of the more common crosses over the
years. (click on the links below).
