Katrina Hartwell is one of those people who will come into your life and you wont be able to forget her. It may not occur to you why at the time that she’s one of the nicest people to meet. She doesn’t say much at first. Katrina is quite quiet when you first meet her, however she is a deep thinker with a big heart.

We didn’t know it at the time that Katrina is a known and celebrated Bandog breeder. Apparently world famous too.

As well as all that, she’s the meme queen in our local dog chat groups and hilarious.

You’ll no doubt love her as much as we do.

Just say no dam it

Interviewing Greg Tonkins has been on the cards for a while. A fellow Aussie, larakin and bushy from the outback. Greg is well known for several reasons, one of them being great at pig hunting and training pig dogs.

We wanted to speak with Greg about this as he is injecting a bit of a spin on an old tradition. Pig hunting has remained similar in it’s training practices for many years , however Greg is looking to change that.

Greg also chats with us about the negative community feeling towards pig hunting. One of these issues is that people believe these are monster dogs that eat little babies and kill everything. They also have a incorrect image of pigs.

What people fail to realise is that are describing any dog with poor breeding and socialisation practices. Pig dogs in many cases are mixed breed dogs that are also family dogs. They do have a biological capacity for pig hunting, however it still needs to be trained.

We also talk about the negative aspect pigs are having on farm land and the environment. many don’t realise they are an introduced pest and in some cases very dangerous. Pig hunting does help to reduce the numbers and return the endangered species.

There’s a lot more we can tell you about Greg so we will look forward to having a chat with him in the future. We are looking forward to our next interview.
