I prefer a dog of 25/26tts BUT height has little to do with the dogs ability to catch all quarry pre-ban. Drive, speed, constitution, strike, heart and various other attributes need to be there to make a good dog. I have seen little 21 inch lurchers taking bigger quarry pre-ban and to look at them you would think a strong breeze would blow them over, I have also seen big 27tts 90lb monsters that weren't worth there chow.............

I don't think lurcher lass was being derogatory just asking a question, hardly calling for a middle finger retard..........

Yeah I think an over night stay in a dirty Travel Lodge might help ment the rift, or we could have a bumming comp and let RFYL and Lurchermainia go first. What a ridiculous idea, THL bumming comp, haven't you noticed all the comps end in arguments

RFYL has probably decided to stay away as lurchermania seems to be either a stalker or trying to get into his pants, wipe the brown off your nose, send some flowers and a pm asking for a date. Although you may be out of luck as he is straight.........

Have you knocked on the farmers doors mate? Put some adds in countrystores, get beating to make contacts and just keep trying. We all struggle with getting permission, thats life unfortunately. My mate has some permission in Derbyshire that was crawling with rabbits but recently when we went for a night out, no rabbits on several hundred acres, bizare as the farmer hadn't found any bodies and we didn't see any signs of mixy. I also have some small permission in Derbyshire that is good for ferreting and lamping bunnies, you just need to keep trying, we have all been there.............

Excellent read artic, keep them coming

We went and there were some good stalls, got a nice picture and some moleskins etc, saw a few folk there, had a chat with Barrie Wade, thanks for the book. My one big gripe is we coulnd't even find the lurchers and terriers and had no end of people ask us where they were, hidden in a corner as per usual no doubt. What really concerns and annoys me is I must attract weirdos and numpties, whilst waiting for lurcher lass outside a stall one fella asks me about the breeding of my pup and then proceeds to tell me what a hard man he is(wow I was impressed) and his nocturnal activities, all the

Corbetts bokks are class, i have five. Gazehoungs and coursing by Dutch Salmon is a good book but a little known book from the UK is "with gun, rifle and bow" by James Douglas is a fantastic read..........

Me too...I've been racking my brains all afternoon and calling people. I know it's silly to get emotionally involved but it's the pups I feel concerned about.We've only bred the odd litter over the last 24 years and have had good homes lined up well before the pups were born. I think working dogs need so much more 'protection' than pet dogs. You can't get any better home for a Lurcher or Terrier than a good, knowledgable working home...however if that dog falls into unscrupulous hands, their lives can be a living hell. Ha ha, as, no matter what, i'm dog daft. Nowt stirs me quite as m

Its been going downhill for years, BUT i'll keep moaning like many of us and keep going................

This has always been a problem, the initial purchase price is a mere drop in the ocean compared to the rearing of a dog. TBH the breeder should say jog on and its the breeders perogative who the pups go to, if you don't feel comfortable with the purchaser don't sell, simplessssss
