  1. thanks to all who responded, the dogs seem to be on the mend, one of them is still oozing blood and puss but the worse case scenario seems not to be what we were thinking thankfully cheers all
  2. Good luck mate, i know that feeling... Hope she turns up safe and sound
  3. That was my worry but the Forest has been so dry, even the normally boggy heathland isn’t that wet; also it seems that it’s more common on feet first- plus they’ve not shown any kidney problem signs like excessive water consumption and pissing all over more things than normal. Maybe I’m just trying to be optimistic or pessimistic as the Roy seems to act so fast that by the time blood tests have come back the danage to their kidneys is almost irreparable. The vet mentioned plasma transplants as an option if it were to go that far. im hoping that it’s simply an allergic reaction as has also
  4. Hard to get a good photo, weird the speed of how it developed... vet recommended antibiotics
  5. You can,t really see the swelling in the first photo but he looks like a comedy witch from side profile; just shocked at how quick it came on...
  6. Hello all, just got back home aftr work to find that the second dog has come down with a rapid swelling on the nose with accompanying blistering, weeping of puss and blood. There was a small cut one day ago but no other visible signs this morning. the other dog (the white one in the photos) developed a slight swelling on the bridge (no discolouration) which develped into what you can see within aprox. 24-36 hours. Only previous injury was a scracth or two around the mouth following an encounter in the woods where i work sometime last week... off to the vets in an hour but would
  7. any chance you can point me in the right direction to take a look at some pics please? cheers
  8. Great pictures, I love that first one - sand flying, going like the clappers!
  9. A breed i heard about from reading Col. Hancock is the Cretan Hound, it's one of the so called primitive breeds that's remained pretty much unchanged for possibly (?) as long as the Saluki. He put me in touch with a guy just outside of Athens; as mentioned previously, a very nice chap and he seem to know his onions. We went on holiday out there, to Crete, and managed to track down a fella who's breeding them - http://www.kritikosichnilatis.gr/en/abperiechomena.html Another very nice chap, he took me and my girlfriend to meet his family and we all went out for dinner, the Cretans are a very
  10. What a nice encounter, were the dogs noisy by any chance?
  11. there's a good thread a few pages in on lab crosses - worth a read
  12. Sorry to hear that mate, i've been in the same position and it's horrid- i'd recommend getting on Doglost too - very helpful and supportive. My friend did facebook for me. Get some posters up too. Hope you get reunited soon
  13. I got hit by a van whilst on my bike a few years back, ended up in hospital, bashed up, a minor stroke and it gave me PTS. The NHS provided me with a psychotherapist to help; I'd never hunted prior to that but I remember telling her that i felt the need to kill something and eat it, i'm not sure she really understood it but that's when i started fishing and a few years later bought my first dog which i started rabbiting with. There was a point at the beginning where we were night fishing and I'd caught a wrasse, it must have been on the line for a while, i unhooked it and tried to set it on it
  14. we went for a fish this weekend, no hatches but we heard the cuckoo and my mate caught us a seat trout yum yum
