10 questions 10 to Sebastián Cruz. Galguero and flamenco singer. 1: Why are you a galguero? I'm Galguero because I think it was when I was born. My father was a good galguero and my grandfather Sebastian also had greyhounds. He told me that he had one called "Careto" that brought the hares that killed him at the door of the house and thus also helped in family support. The truth is that I am passionate about this world. 2: What do greyhounds bring to your life? Greyhounds practically since I was born, bring me much satisfaction. They are the ones that help me to di

After a very poor season last year due to a back injury hopefully will get better luck this season. Been out a couple times this week as the weather and grounds is abit more favourable albeit warm still. Edi still has got a fair way to go to get a level of fitness back for decent night, but hopefully won’t be long. Atb have a good season everyone!

A HORRIFIED vegan is “traumatised for life” after biting into a Greggs pork sausage roll after asking for a meat-free one. Sharleen Ndungu, 20, said she had heart palpitations and burst into tears after realising the pastry snack contained animal flesh.

You will struggle to find any politician that has worked for ten years let alone in the constituency. Take Corbyn (please); according to Wiki he worked for 2 years until aged 19 he went travelling and then has been in politics for the rest of his life. And he is not in a minority. Few of our current politicians have done what we call proper jobs.

My view on Brexit has been changing slightly over the last couple of months. Now the EU is a shit organisation and they are definitely going to a very sinister place with all this empire building, it also has a distinctly anti democracy agenda on many issues.......however I think the last 3 years have shown us things that we didn’t know before and, it seems, many still can’t grasp.......namely that a massive amount of our daily problems were the fault of the politicians we kept electing to our own parliament, they simply hid behind the EU. We blame massive free movement of people, 3r

With plenty of rain forecast for tonight I decided to go and have a Trip out on the lamp. unfortunately the rain didn’t come as expected or even at all, up on arrival of my first spot I gazed on the temperature gauge in the car and it read 15 degrees so with that I decided I needed to take things steady. I made my way through the first field which was very long grass, next field had been planted but nothing was yet to start growing but that’s where the bunnies were and so my night started. I picked a few off and made my way round my route, every time the dog would make a catch I stopped to

Get some tripe down him for a few weeks mate, does wonders for their coats after they've had skin problems ?. And I aint getting into a debate with ANYONE concerning the merits of feeding tripe, or not, on a regular basis. It's great for dogs' coats, FACT lol ?

yep the reason I wont have dogs in the house....and my 3 are soft as bollox......but as ive said a dozen times on these threads....your average lurcher is 50lbs of muscle and teeth... how many of us have small whippety lurchers that can kill a fox or a 50-60 lbs roe deer in a matter of seconds by crushing its windpipe...my 5 year old weighs around 40 lbs....even my 10 year old is only around 70lbs...... make no mistake they would make short work of a child....

I keep a first x and so far not a bad word against her ,she's doing everything I ask , hooping for a good season .

This has been a saga to say the least, Nobilo in NZ has been no help at all. Thanks to tremendous efforts from members here (they have been thanked in PM's) it seems a bottle is on its way from Europe. I am eternally grateful to all who spent a lot of their time and made tremendous efforts to help, there are some really great people on THL. THANK YOU!

I've lost dogs, to all manner, of 'over-running' maladies,..some dogs seem pre-destined to die young, whilst others will suffer from abuse and can handle, even the stupidest of handlers...? Trust me, I used to be, a world-renowned authority, on the fecking subject... ? You got to take things really slow and, let the jukels run themselves into, a natural kind of fitness...?

I think others have explained, I don't fully follow the chart as there do seem to be some odd anomalies. http://www.varmintal.com/17hmr.htm This is the link if it helps! Again, as other have said cutting the barrel down is going to make a marginal difference in reality, don't be tempted to cut to much off first go though, its hard to glue it back if its too short!

Their becoming a bunch of escape artists now,any slacking on our part and their out to freedom,and I've another greyhound bitch here that would happily kill the lot of them,it will be a relief when the go to their new owners

There are certain breeds of dogs that really should not be kept without a special licence, also there are certain breeds of humans that should not be allowed to own dogs under any circumstances. Most people in their lifetime will come across a situation where you will be worried or attacked by a dog however mild a situation, but a full blown attack by a large breed you dont stand much chance, unless youre armed. A friend of mine was attacked recently by his girlfriends dog and suffered quite bad injuries to his face and neck. As was the case it was the usual chav type dog and feckwit owner, n

Lithium battery’s are a game changer I remember wet cell 24amp batteries I feel sorry for the car battery boys those poor feckers had it hard

“I’m traumatised for life now — I’m never going to Greggs again.” I should fkn think so now go and buy some free range pork and get the bbq out ? and make it snappy

I've been pumping it into my Wheaton bitch from day 1 along with oily fish,sprats,fresh herrings,salmon heads and oil,sprinkle of that Damascus earth powder......all my dogs terrier or lurcher look real good on it,nice thick workman like and weather proof coats?

Back ya on the tripe mate good gear my pup gets tripe as part of her mixed diet most days my pups growing like a weed on the stuff I can’t recommend tripe enough if your raw feeding lovely stuff

Se what vets says. For general info treatments that contain isoxazoline should work on both types of mange, the active ingredients in some flea tablets.

The black pud runs hots so its gently gently this time of year. Handful of runs and home if that. No panics

If its demedevtoc the shock ta the system of being rejomed diet etc can trigger it if its sat optic mange that's different easier ta deal with hibiscrub. Will get on top off the first signs of both but demedctic a fecki g nightmare every time the welps omune system comparamised it returns I've seen bull xes with demedctic terrible weekly jabs of ivo. Ec atjo g etc and got on top of it but this mange his a test of wills its AllwYs there waiti g ta come back with a vengeance it's acquired from the bitch when nursi g the welps. Atb bill

Blimey ! That escalated quickly......so before I get drawn into something that’s none of my business let me just make a couple of things clear: The only thing I’m into flattening these days is my dinner ! And nothing Max has ever said to me would make me feel angry in that way towards the bloke and I’m sure he feels exactly the same. We exchange some banter, some strong opinions and a few friendly (and sometimes not so friendly) insults.....that’s it and that’s all ......no skin off anyones nose as far as I can see. just for the record

And they gave you a licence!

max tuck your teeth into your waistband you f***ing fat slug and give your lips a rest......your getting like jobi/dogfox with your f***ing shit mun?

Fist season for mine ,she had a few runs out end of last season and I was happy with her so I'm hoping for a good season , not a very good pic ,few nights out will soon bring her tip top , atb mooch

Yep, looks like demodectic mange

Nowt wrong with my temperament pal I just have no time for piss takers and people who jump on other folks post to get attention or to spoil someone else’s thread. Regards Collie John.

As we all know there's too much cover yet but they got a few, had some fun and I like a change of ground for the young un's to work out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Crg9bCu-4Ao

He looks a cracker. How old is he? Is it from your own lines? Not seen him on here before but I haven't been on much lately. Hope to see more of him.?

Mouse gun?

My little girls friends parents rescued a dog very similar to those types I stopped her going round no chances taken at all very different having a bull cross in a kennel at the bottom of the garden than having things Like that day on the couch with you what goes through peoples minds

You can’t expect to get £500 for a lurcher pup that hasn’t done or seen anything ... lower your price and look for a good working home ......

Do you not mean a drain on 'british' funds, old chap? It's not just england that might be leaving the e u. Or is it only england that matters?

That is a disgrace! Whoever let a pup go in that condition should not own a dog. See if you can get some Benzyl benzoate from a chemist and rub that on, i wouldn't wait till Monday.

If we don’t leave then we all just need riot and burn down the Houses of Parliament because if they don’t put in to action what the majority have voted for then what use are they other than a drain on English funds

Starting to get this lad some ut like hope you all have a good and injury free season

Whenever I see things like that I always think of that poor little scouse girl who was killed at her grandmas house. that dog pretty much removed that little souls head from her body just think about that for one second before thinking , ah they’ll be alright only takes a dog’s tail to be stood on , or an eye poke tragic

That’s true, no offence, but anyone that says any dog never mind dog with aggression in their blood is 100% is not thinking right........they may be 100% SO FAR but that’s no guarantee of anything. I seen a couple of red noses for sale the other day and for a moment went “Ohh” then right away I think how I have a 6 year old plus other kids and I just wouldn’t even entertain it. I just wouldnt want a dog that requires so much thought and planning every day anyway.

Had you been talking to it about football and it couldn’t take no more? Lol

Anything born from nature has the propensity to be " bad ".....usually it doesnt come to the surface but put enough ticks in the bad nurture column as well and dont be surprised when that bad nature shows itself.

He's looking well Bosun.... ?

It is grim reading mate, but goes back to what I said a couple of weeks ago in another thread on here. The majority of dog owners in this country really are not fit to be dog owners. Not saying that particular woman, but most dog owners, regardless of the breed they procure, will buy that dog on a whim, with no knowledge at all of that particular breed, it's physical needs, mental charecteristcs, etc, or dogs in general. All dogs need ALOT more than a 10 minute walk twice a day, and a few throws of a ball or whatever, to keep them grounded, happy and secure. Not trivialising this incident

Hope he’s still here then mate, because if Corbyn and crew get in before a brexit of some kind is sorted then the eu will be able to sit back and laugh whilst he sells us down the river well and truly

bargain
