In an urban/suburban setting, a pet is a luxury.
I grew up on a farm and always considered the dog/cat/goats pets
The cows and horses livestock
yeah that's what I was thinking
Dogs didn't heard or anything
@Whats gay anymore We used to treat cows as pets too when I was a kid, but they gave of some milk
@Whats gay anymore how was that?, one of my goals is to move to a semi-rural area and have a small family farm
Still livestock
Loved it
is livestock and pet mutually exclusive?
Well our dogs gave us company and that was it 🤷 I'll call them pets
Yes.
A hunting dog though, I wouldn't call a pet
livestock has real utility; pets are a luxury
@DankChum No, lambs where treated like pets too, still ate them though
Granted, you would probably love the shit out of your hunting dog.
No one I know with a hunting dog loves it
Really?
They go down to boars all the time
They're tossed away
like I'd love a friend but that doesn't mean I wouldn't run his pockets when he dies
Oh, boars are fuckin' nuts, though.
same goes for pigs
Well boar hunting is the only reason to have them where I grew up
At least pigs don't come equipped with those damn tusks.
Probably different for other hunting dogs
@Xychotic You pull the tusks out when the pigs are young
You'd be lucky to get more then a year out of them
No more than a year out of a hunting dog?
Yeah in my experience
Wow. This is news to me.
Some last awhile but my school friends who hunted would always talk about new dead dogs they had
Aww.
They use about 3 each trip
And they did go regularly
Whenever I think of a pig with tusks, I often confuse boars with warthogs. I think what makes the warthogs different than the boars is the shape of their snout, it's supposedly designed for digging.
warthogs are african, iirc
Yep, the geographical location definitely makes a moderate difference too.
Were the boar hunting trips pest control or food hunting?
I have a problem, can u guys chime in on what yall think
