@Luca Here's a breed you can read up on, very much like your Enzo but more solidly muscled. Bred for pig hunting.

oh man! Going up against a feral pig? No thank you. These guys must be clever brave and strong.

How about the mighty dachshund who is bred to go after the badger? That’s some ferocious tenacity on four little legs.

Or Yorkies, they were bred to hunt deer. Ferocious.

I think the English Bull Terrier was bred for preventing sofas blowing away.

No, hunting the person who has cookies.

Professional hunters don't use guns, just dogs.

These professional hunters cause a lot of controversy in remote communities too. Some of them are unscrupulous and will cut your fences for vehicle access, they also deliberately start bush fires and burn areas out for easier vehicle access and so that pigs are easier to find.

Fire also ruins fences, it removes the galvanisation from the wire which then rusts through very quickly.

I'm not sure if the Internet of the 2000's was more or less dumb than it is today. Perhaps it was both.

Dogo Argentinos are bred to hunt boar too and big cats. Which is why they look so “fearsome” and “ferocious.”

And here you can see the ferocious beast cornering her prey…
Yup. So scary. So fearsome.

(Never met a goofier and more ridiculous creature in my life. With a good owner and proper training, the only thing they’re going to savagely kill is your favorite sandals.)

On a totally different subject, I received these gifts from a client.
(Now if anyone needed physical confirmation that my name is, in fact, Luca… here you go )

Greenland sharks often catch prey whilst the prey is sleeping because they are too slow. there was also a case where they found a polar bear inside a Greenland shark. Anyway they live for a long time too. I just find them really creepy.

We did it!!! And didn’t finish dead last lol and I didn’t fall.

I thought we were going to walk the whole thing. But towards the end, Enzo started running, and kept pulling and pushing me so I actually started jogging! He was actually encouraging me!

No selfies for me because I am bright red and covered in sweat. But at least you have pics of Enzo.

Is that step count accurate? 5500 steps for 5200 metres? That's a fairly long stride for someone only 5' tall.

Well done.

Don’t you know Luca has fairy wings?

Enzo was probably pulling so hard that she barely touched the ground.
