Yea, it is pretty dead. There is only a couple of us that post but we aren't going to carry it for everyone. Let's face it.....not that many working dales anymore. It was really slim before. Left you a PM.

Why is that though?We need more video and almost marketing to show people how versatile the breed is.Get skme dogs into peoples hand that can show it all!

A working dog today seems to be dock diving, agility, etc, for the most part. I posted pictures for years of dogs working rough game and they weren't alway well accepted. Besides, I don't know of many folks that will video when the dogs are in a life or death situation that is real and not a game of some sort. Example here. I was just reading a discussion, on a hunting forum to boot, questioning if others would let their dogs engage a coyote. The unanimous answer was NO! LMAO people today want to see dancing Border Collies on Utube......and they love it.

As an aside, when I started posting video, it was mostly on how to bring pups along so you can live with them 24/7 without relying on the dog living in a crate. Unfortunetly, putting a dog in a crate is much easier than teaching them how to behave in the house today. I posted a lot of video on how to and why to do things. Pretty much a waste of time. I still have all the video. I worked entire litters at the same time rather than one pup so they are in short segments.....and no treats or correction....and no crates in the house.

Horrible,they are killing this breed,just as they did the German Shepherd.There is a new registry thay just over took the ADBA in less than two years!They are all about working dogs.We are getting many Real Catahoula people to switch over.We want to have tests before you can even breed or register !Much like the German system.They are the APDR .Maybe you should start a wave to get the true Airedale breeders over before its too late .

Neto, I have always been somewhat controversial in the dog world. It is time for someone else to carry the torch and beat thir heads against the wall.....maybe someone one with more tack than I have on my best day. The dogs you see today are the direct result of the mindset people have today regarding dogs. Breeders today will breed what the majority want......simple as that. All the vids and pictures I have are on my private site. The password is "hunter". Enjoy. smg.photobucket.com/user/hicntry/library/?sort=3&page=1.
