    We always had goats for milk ,would tether them out along side the hedges and they was always happy and full ,goats love to climb and ours spent more time in trees than on the floor lol ,my parents took us kids melton mulberry market and we came back with goat each as the muslims were cutting the throats for meat and we cryd until all five baby billy goats were safe in our van lol my dad not happy about it,over a few months they found new homes for them lol .

    We have been thinking about buying some land to start small holding ,produce all of our meat ourself grow veg etc . id like to breed pigs mostly but few sheep and fowl maybe goats for milking ,cheese etc . its just getting land in uk at right price ,to be honest we are thinking about going Hungary to look for a property with plenty land as its so cheap to buy out there .if we could find land in uk at right price we would stay here but for 5 grand you can get old farm house and few acres .out of interest what kind of money per acre did you spend ? are you going to put static on

    How I wish I took notice of my grandad when I was a young chavie ,every morning he would leave the horse drawn camp with his basket and terrier by his feet , he always took one or two of us kids with him for company on his walks . he would no what to pick and what to leave ,what ones gave you a bad belly and those good for eating . his favourite was what he called blue legs ? i should have took notice as still to this day I haven't got a clue what's good what's not good to eat . i was out other day and came across a few large mushrooms that looked edible but left them

    Hi ,my whippet x started to get tears in eyes and runny eyes , if you don't find anything wrong with eye then be carful as my boy had lung worm ,some dogs show no signs other than runny eyes and then a reverse sneeze noise then it turns to cough. might be something simple but best be carful . atb mooch

    Of course there's no good c@nts every were ,I try my hardest to stay away from spiteful b....... Don't know how any one could hurt a jook they feed every day or any dog .I spend more time with my dogs than I do any other living thing ,I learned young animals bite because there frit of ya but people do it for fun .

    Your right there's no excuse for a dirty kennel and yard ,what I was trying to get over is don't judge folk by where they live ,"dirty concil estate"is what you said , we got wires x . the gypsy thing was a example of how folk judge sometimes .

    I see some cracking lurchers bred and run by lads that live in sh@t holes and feed there jooks befor them selves ,never judge a book by the pic ! my family all lived in bender tents and wagons but we all fed and mostly what the jook or snares,katty took .we didn't have much in way of money but it was best of up bringing .and our dogs cared for as they should be,"good feed,warm bed and plenty work and treated good .any one looking at us back then would think we had nothing but we had something money couldn't buy "freedom" big house,money,nice cars,clouths and nice neat garden don't m

    Of course your right ,got to put the care of the dogs befor money .and make sure customers are matched with the right pup etc . i don't know David or sally well anufe to comment but if they have not found good homes for there breeding stock and put them in incinerater they both need putting against a wall and a 22 round in the head . Some one must no were dogs are going ?

    How many work them ? By work I don't mean fly ball and x country running . i ask because he sold more pups to pet,fly ball and dog runners than he did to working homes . im in no way saying they don't work as ones I seen been good workers but I only see a couple.

    It's always about £££ in business just a shame the dogs didn't have a very good life in way of exercise and litter after litter . it wouldn't have been that bad if he had some one working and exercising them daily . i hope all the dogs find loving family homes and get the care and love they deserve . i know of several lads,lasses over yrs that offerd to work exercise the dogs but David refused ! any idea were dogs gone to ,

    Never had bull x lurcher but had bull breeds and iv never met a spiteful one ,. like any dog you have to bring them up right !!!
  24. Moocher71
    I was speaking to my uncul other night ,he's 92 yr old and he's forgot more than most no about lurchers and this was his words . all the xs you see today at lurcher shows are the same as what they had in 50s apart from Salukis but as a kid he remembers a fella having a brace of lurchers that looked spit of a first x grey,sal belonging to a German gypsy who's family fled the war . he also said it's not the dogs that Chang but the folk keeping them !! to many hobby hunters and Rosette chasers , as for % i don't bother with it , he always says best dog is the one catchi
