Have you seen any go stiff,iv seen a good few over the years,good mixed through a lurcher,tho they don't all make the grade same as any cross

First Barbel of the season last night,river was extremely low and full of weed,was hard going tbf...just started packing up and putting kit back in the car...and my upstream rod went over...I've missed the sound of my old whiskers screaming in the darkness ...

Never really seen a wheaten lurcher in action but heard they are the real deal. But, come on, a good bull cross is a chainsaw on legs. My uncles mate had a bull cross that went berserk when chucked in the motor and when I say berserk when he went lamping he used to throw it out on a hare or two just to try and settle it down, when it spotted something on the lamp it used to try and jump through the windscreen. Lol

Yes mate but then it needs the energy an bollocks to kill when it's hanging of the dogs face lol

Finnish or finish?

Wheaton’s are scrap let’s have it right

I'd love to mate but it's basically part & parcel of working on the railway unless you have office hands..lol

Mate, a bull cross of the right type is unrivaled by anything barring perhaps a good wheaten cross.

Few from my journey back this morning the cream and brown building is the stables cafe and years ago was the stables for the tow horses that worked on the canal

110! Bloody hell that's some innings... what a life, I'd like to have sat and had a yap with him.

Scout was foxy Charlie Seagull Charlie I think So linebred coursing stuff 3/4 ish saluki I'd say My red bitches grand sire

Was darlo scout that belonged to PG, never saw big Pete the beater for years, hope lad is going well, bitch I had was from same dam but a diff sire, lovely dogs to be around, just pure natural grafters I found

Talking up at em and wanting them dead having that drive personally id go coursing bull into a coursing bred before I went hardblood

Will try try a few types a land be good to see the young dog on

Not sure which scout it was, and yeah I think Don had one maybe from the same litter. This one was MLB’s, I only had it at mine for a few days and nights. Cheers.

I'll travel anywhere mate if the offer is there. You don't know how your dog will fair till you've tried it . Completely different land to what I run but it wouldn't put me off coming. 150 yard slip and they need to catch it within a 200 yard field by me. You may get 5/6called into your feet a season . Should be easy pickings up by you lol

Was that Peter the beaters scout dog or the other scout from Darlington? sure @WataWalloperhad something along those lines as well

The training over here is poor and there is a money shortage and most training is only a couple of years and they use them the companies get a grant to train up the young with all the promises and at the end you Finnish agencies do the same promise you a good offer and still don't get awarded the ones from aboard are only here on a short stay then and the job is Finnished they pay them less and if they really had to stay here and pay their way like the rest of us then they may realise what rent and tax and paying bills like in the UK

What is it? This is my only social media lol

Fs why didn't they leave it here . Was a great thread

Thought you were going to jack in the nights?

You got no say in the matter it's all on their side human rights human rights and they know who to play it to their advantage

That's why we need apprentices though not only to learn a trade but to learn to graft aswell. I don't know who's going to be building and engineering in a few years time. When I go to site I could be the youngest there and I'm 60.

Coursing bull; Sire; Scout Dam; half cross bull / greyhound. I may be wrong and it may be the second cross, I’m sure someone will correct me ! LOL ! Cheers.
