  1. That white dog bit like my ol dog mostly whippet with a touch of bedlington and his mam had a bit of sal in her . me and him we done some miles and he put plenty away in his time and punched well above his size , He's next to me now ,no longer works but he'd still break his heart to catch.
  2. He did say what type but forgot lol it was the biggest dog iv ever seen,my mates parents have Danes and this 8 moth old pup was just as big as them , not my kind of dog but these kind of breeds are getting popular because they are coming over from Eastern Europe ,turkey etc were large guard dogs are needed,are they neede here in uk ?
  3. Lovely pup that ,hope it all gos good for the pair of them ,no better friendship than a lad and his juckel especially when hunting .
  4. I was out for a walk other evening and I see couple lads with a monster of a juckel ,looked like a Akita x Dane or something along them lines , the lad said it was 8 mts old and a Turkish mastif , the size of this things head ,I wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of it that's for sure ,
  5. Always going to be those that beleave there way the best ,I need a knock about mooching juckel so bedy grey suits me for what I do, I just like seeing a good lurcher no matter the x do the job it bred for . all the bitching on here puts folk of,and you find its same few people arguing about my dogs better than yours !!!!
  6. Sorry to hear about your wife Phil, my wife going through treatment and it's been a very dark time but we can see some light at last , stay strong and I hope everything turns out ok . atb mooch
  7. My old bedy whippet good dog for feather,he took plenty kaneys,he would snaffle them in long grass mostly and I see him take them on the run befor take off, i see him pin them with his paws and wait for me to deal with it , wish he was young again !!
  8. Just thout I'd pop the pic up, we all get the juckels that suit us!! all the" my dog better than your dog" does my head in !! evey one to there own ,I have had dogs since I was ten and my family always had pot fillers and my uncul always said the best dog is the one that puts grub on the table and helps feed the family ,don't care what it looks like ,what breed or x as long as it works!!! we should be happy with what we have ,
  9. I was out for a walk other day after work and I noticed the pair of buzzards was out with this yrs young un ,one was jumping up and down and looked to b stamping on something ,I got closer but spooked them so got on with my walk ,on return walk we went through the paddocks were we see the buzzards, my tink found a snake that the buzzards had just dined on,all the jumping and stamping was the bird killing the snake , i never see this befor,but I'm sure they was teaching young how to survive ,
  10. Same as you mate,going out early or late when it's cooler and walk the brooks , my dogs get the odd run if they push something up
  11. Hi every one my whippet x started to cough couple yrs ago so trip to vets ,they said kennel c and gave meds ,this didn't work but he stopped coughing couple weeks later ,six months down line it comes back and again they talked us into kennel cough treatment and this didn't work,they also gave steroids for ten days and they did nothing but make him fat ! .he as had this for past 2 1/2 yrs on and of ,he's had lung rinse and nothing it came back clear ,we was told specialist who looked and tested the swabs from rinse believed it was maybe kennel cough or a irritant making him cough ,
  12. She's looking good skycat ! bedlingtons very sensitive I find and easy offended ,but once you are mates and ground rules set they are bags of fun , atb mooch
  13. In my opinion the whippet is the best pure bred long dog for any kind of rabbiting ,it's only down fall it rips easy , whippet x bedlington would be my choice for a small lurcher under 22 but the whippet don't need any peping up from any breed other than to give coat , got one here 314 whippet bedy ,wish he was young again ,best dog I ever had .took fox ,munty,hare and plenty rabbits and feather . dint think you go wrong with a whippet for knocking rabbits over . atb
  14. I was out with a lad that runs a lab x lurcher last yr ,big lump of a juckel looks bit like some of the bullx you see , I see him retrieve fox and drop them at ya feet ,good on the lamp and loves water .
  15. If you can not find one there get a pup from England , dave platts as sent pups to USA so Ireland wouldn't be a problem ,
  16. Do the lurcher lads ,lasses use cattle dog ,Kelpi x lurchers or mostly staghounds for running bigger stuff the whippet makes a good rabbit dog like you say,they punch well above there size . any pics of some of the types you ran over the yrs . atb
  17. Love seeing old pics ,we was the same out most nights and days and took good numbers and had some good juckels but sadly never really thout about taking pics back then ,
  18. Nice looking pup mate ,wish all the luck with her ,
