[WhelanLad]

some recent pieces on some Pups found and after quizzing people about my recent wild dog, it has sparked some interest in the existance of pure dingos.
some good links below... a bit like ya wolf.

Thanks for sharing WhelanLad. Always great to see a species still holding on! Hopefully some better conservation efforts for the breed will come out of this.

When I was in OZ we were told the last pure bred dingoes were on Fraser Island and the remainder cross bred with dogs.
I'd find it hard to believe the entire population of Australian dingoes had been bred out.
