  1. I was referring to the video .......
  2. Why is it always women? so many of the side show pursuits involving shit running dogs are all kept going by a certain type of women .......
  3. I know. I try not to bite normally ? but sometimes you just gotta ....
  4. Ok, I’m not usually into long winded stuff on here, but I’ll break it down. “The wheaten offers far more, far more often, and without the assistance the bull Lurchers are often wanting” - what does this even mean? Im not sure we are talking about 1st x bull greys and wheaten greys here? But even if we were, can you tell me how a 1st x wheaten grey is so so much better than a 1st x bull grey? What’s the more that it offers so many times???? All I can see is a better coat if I’m honest and most 1st x wheaten Xs are smaller and less athletic than a 1st x bull grey ...... so that kind o
  5. Some amazing levels of utter drivel on this forum. You sound like a clueless kid and you’re not a kid so that’s a bit worrying......
  6. Out of our team of four runners back then, one died, one lost most of her chest muscles, and two were fine.
  7. Sounds very similar to some of the places we used to hunt back home pre ban. It’s a case of bringing the dogs up doing it from day one and crossing your fingers. It also seems to help your catch rate if you’re bumping into herds in the thick stuff, as they seem to try to lie up and hope you miss them, and in the ensuing panic when they jump up, not everyone can take the escape route at once at speed and someone or other gets caught up and in trouble.
  8. From my limited experience, when folk talk about stuff like this, something like ‘heavy woodland’ is a subjective term. To me it would mean proper forestry blocks, close planted, or old growth deciduous, with no clearing, so it’s like a tangled maze. The kind of stuff you struggle to walk through, unless you’re on your hands and knees. Dogs do catch in it, but everything is stacked in the deers favour. Light and open woods or thick stuff with rides cut and clearings, are a bit different.
  9. Anyone ever pointed out that all rights come with responsibility’s. Often folk are very vocal about the former but less so about the latter!
  10. Serious question. . . . . . why is it that the yanks believe they really need machine guns? Other than the fact that everyone else has machine guns. . . . . . . Im sorry but I've always found it concerning when I hear about angry, slightly confused people toting machine guns. . . . . . .
  11. What was the sire again? Sounds like a pretty good outcome for the bitch, the pups and you. Least she / they are away from that window licker.
  12. Theres hound packs out there fed on pasties lol.
  13. It looks like she's done the pups well, which means you've done her well, so hats off to you. You never know the pups might be absolute belters.
  14. Yep. Years ago i remember thinking, if everyone caught what they said they did / had. . . . . . . there wouldn't be much left out there! I agree a couple of hard nights / days out will take it out of a dog. But I just think some folk worry too much / over complicate things. If you go ferreting once a week, maybe catch 20 rabbits, of which the dog nails a few. . . . . I wouldn't say the dog is going to be needing special supplements, and an overly complex barf diet to be able to perform. Even a couple of hard nights . . . . . if you're after rabbits and are lucky enough to
  15. Is this the one you bought off some knob head, and then he said it was in pup?
  16. I think something that makes me chuckle a little bit sometimes. Is folk talk about conditioning their dogs like canine athletes, which is great. And a healthy and balanced nutritional diet is important. But let’s face it ...... how many folks work their dogs THAT hard. Folk do a lot of talking, especially on the internet, but how many folk really have the dogs out and grafting real hard multiple days / nights a week throughout the season, week in, week out. Serious question ? And an hour or twos mooch isn’t really hard work ....... it’s just normal exercise.
  17. Yer I feed Dr John’s titanium which is in the silver bag, and then whatever meat is around. My lot will do a whole roe deer in a sitting if I let them.
  18. Probably more folk than you think have perm to run dogs. But it’s tough. We’ve done ourselves a lot of damage over the last few years.
  19. Pat/springer x Russel/whippet
  20. Don't get me started. Funnily enough though, the thing that got that started was actually true.
  21. You do realise he’s talking Lb weight and not “ TTS?
  22. Some of the folk on here must live in la la land. Its not at all surprising really. Bunch of wankers driving around causing agro, get chased off by a keeper, and then decide to take revenge, because how dare anyone try to stop them. The revenge usually takes the form of burning / stealing / killing something. Some of the keepers and farmers round here wont confront them anymore for fear of getting barns, bale stacks etc burnt out.
