Sadly my best dog ive ever owned got pts recently of old age. I had her since 9 weeks old and i use to spend hours a day training her. her retrieving was good,marking sets, and deffo her recall. she was the most obedient dogs ive ever had. She was an inside dog and at night i used to let her into the garden i went to let her back in and she jumped a 6 foot fence.! but i think she got onto the ferret hutch and then over the fence. I would take her out lamping sunday and thursday night and then on huge hikes in the day. She was the rabbit destroyer she was spot on. She had a few haires back in

Is there any agriculture colleges around the northeast area?

Got a 3 year od lurcher so will be ready to bring on in august if i calculated that correctly. the problem around here is too many lurcher lads going out the wrong time of year getting all the rabbits and ruining it for others. thats the bad side in the sport. hopefully rabbit populati

someone start me off?

Gonna right something on notepad print iy off and post it through letter box!

went to about 7 farms half em didnt even answer and one said my husband aint in....

alot of people say if you keep yuor dog inside it affects them. And if theyre out they are real working lurchers. I have a 4 month old pup and i keep it in the kitchen, its fine, house trained and well being. who else keeps them inside or out and whats your opinions

Cheers for all the help, all im wanting is some permission for ferreting and with my dog, its 5 month old already and starting to take it down the allotment with the hens and some sheep fields. Anyway im based in consett Co durham
