  1. Couldn't disagree with that Neil and he is a nice bloke, he has done me a couple of favours.
  2. Trouble is most people buy a pup, raise it and when something bad happens they expect rin tin tin. It takes hundreds of hours of training to get the real deal and regardless of breed if it doesn't have the minerals in the first place you can't put them in. Shepherds may have originally bred for herding sheep but how long have they been used a guard dogs, police dogs, prison dogs, security dogs, PP dogs, etc etc. I think its widely accepted that this is the breeds main role and has been for a while. Not saying they are the be all and end all, I have seen and trained some real crap She

  5. Some interesting points "Hare coursers have a sophisticated information network" = A Mobile Phone "They may contain evidence of dogs inside – such as muddy paw prints and dog hair". = Beware dog walkers, if your dogs hasn't wiped its paws and hasn't been groomed that day you are a courser "Hare coursers often travel in convoy with transit vans at the front and rear containing minders and the cars in between containing the employers".= Minders and employees of coursers.................. Trouble is Joe Public laps up this drivel..................

  12. Gareth, I'm assuming he means if they feel pressured they will pack the game in and walk off. Which is true from the ones I have worked.
  13. I remember that book getting a bad reveiw in EDRD some years ago and Sean wrote to Dave to complain but didn't get much change When I read the synopsis for the fox of whitersrush moor I nearly died laughing

  15. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM If you did some research then surely you would know that the barf diet IS a balanced diet and not JUST meat.
