  1. I use a cream called dermisol for dogs and ferrets, think it's also for cattle and horses, it seems to work on most stuff.
  2. we didn't have a great start, this was just mooching at 6 months, she gets her share of knocks but is highly committed and is catching well.
  3. Ben banham on ebay, not the cheapest but good choice, just had some from Billy fowler also in ebay a lot cheaper and good quality
  4. I only shoot a lighter setup due to arthritis, I have wrists like Larry grayson, I find. .65 and 9.5mm steel is up to the job for hunting or anything else, I like precise, silinxiate, jinpu, sumeike all are good.
  5. thanks arry, is there a chance it could be a penny bun?
  6. I didn't know we had any of them in here
  7. never had a ped dog until now, my whippet bitch is bred half brother to sister, looking on whippet pedigrees it looks a common thing and with good results.
  8. good shooting mr W good to see there's a few about, do you think you will be getting the nets out soon?
  9. you keep going on about your middle class upbringing, good job merchant navy sorted us brothers out
  10. this is really for us older generation, as it will be obvious, I know it's different times, less quarry, new laws, country full of do gooders, it's hard finding good well bred pups, getting good working stock ferrets is a challenge, do you think dogs of the past were a higher standard or are we just looking back through rose tinted glasses?
  11. raw, and a bit of high protein biscuit, sardines, eggs. she's never been above 23 pounds but she is high energy, never stops when she's out. also I think she as thrown to the racing side of her breeding.
  12. it divides opinions, he's young so time yet, what some call sticky others would say no interest, personally I like a pup using it's nose early, wanting to find out what's around the corner, I would rather have to reign a dog in the have to gee it up, the keener the better.
  13. mine is very hard mouthed, this is the only time of year she keeps any weight on, she's lightly built but doesn't lack stamina.
  14. they would knock them out to worm them now ££
  15. nice one mate, have you bought a couple of kits in?. my only ferret a 6 year old Jill unfortunately didn't take, the good stuff isn't easy to find nowadays, but I managed to get 2 Jill kits a couple of weeks ago, how's the whippet coming on?
  16. hearing test, eye test, doctor and dentist, you can't be in fxxking England my friend.
  17. I think that was a chap called Jason Powell.
  18. she's 3 in September, didn't have her 1st season till 14 months old.
  19. thanks for the reply, she is in good condition, very active when we are out, just a pain in the arse coming in season early.
  20. my whippet has come back in season after only 4 and half months, all my lurchers tended to be pretty regular at 6 months, is this normal with whippets?
  21. all mine have had Jaws like a gin trap, shows how different dog's can be.
  22. Yes I can see your point, I have always used them for hunting up cover, marking holes etc, this they exel at, they do catch on short runs but I don't class them as running dog's, not mine anyway.
