  1. Well done Al, After quitting smoking I Went from 11 stone to 17 in 6 years Used to cycle 200 miles a week...not been on a bike for 4 years Used to weightlift.....now lift doughnuts On the good side i'll probably now die of heart disease rather than lung cancer
  2. I could be wrong in in England, Wales and Scotland if you are digging to a fox don't you have to have a gun present to dispatch the fox?
  3. Well I have been fortunate to train dozens of different breeds and in MY opinion labs, collies and shepherds are the most easily trained and can adapt to a variety of tasks. I think a first cross shepherd or malinios would be fast enough for rabbits and if you live somewhere its legal fox too, although I wouldn't have thought it would have enough speed for deer or hare
  4. Not got thta many photos but managed about 20 rats in one day. Best days we average about 20 feral pigeons and a few rabbits.
  5. I'm putting it across an ex-track bitch so put your name down for pups :11:
  6. If your just after a pet smoothrun why not take on a rescue lurcher? Think lurcherlass on here could help.......
  7. Try good old will power :11: I was on 40 a day since school and tried unsuccessfully to stop several times. Got married in 2000 and decided that I would have one more ciggy then quit, and it worked....apart from a drag on one last year that made me feel sick :11:
  8. Landywoods are great, they e-mail me a few days before they are delivering in my area to see if I need a delivery.
  9. Yes got his book on dog training......
  10. Went to the Crawley and Hawsham opening meet and a guy i met told me that his local newsagents, who he has been buying the Countrymans weekley off for years, has stopped stocking it as people have been complaining to the newsagents about the contents, so hes withdrawn it and its now by preorder only. cheers bob Many people I speak to have been complaining about the content for years :whistle: :whistle:

    Lurcher print

    Had a few of these about 10 years ago, terrier and fox, lurcher lamping etc. Ok but I prefer the ones I see at the stalls at the Midland, usuallly about £200 and out of my price range
  15. Bob, have a look on the net at Kirkby k9, quality mesh cages at a reasonable price..........

    which 4x4

    Lucky what mpg do you get with it?
  17. Nice one Frank, good luck with her
  18. Whin, does Steve still keep GSD bred lurchers? Which did he prefer, the 1/2 cross or 3/4 bred? What were they like on bigger stuff? cheers Simon
  19. Agree 100%, mine is the dog mobile, clean it weekly but always has a layer of dust on the dash and hair, also smells and gets covered in mud, inside and out. My wife has a nice clean new people carrier that is a pleasure to drive :11: Just looking at getting a navara to keep the dogs/people seperate, although they are costly and use more fuel than my current car, I do about 1,400 miles a month and that isn't cheap now but a navara doing 30mpg compared to nmy renault 36mpg will be expensive, also thinking of getting a trailer?????
  20. C'mon Will, it's not that good :11:
  21. Whin, I've heard of Steve Barton, Dave Skleight did an article in EDRD years ago. What happened at the Amman valley show? It's a cross i'm interested in. These are two of my dogs bred from European Schutzhund lines. Do a little work with them.....
  22. I agree Broomer, I love my dogs and in one form or another they have been my hobby or profession and couldn't be without one, however my wife and kids come first everytime P.S. Broomer whos the women in your avatar
  23. Its a diary of 12 months :11: Your mission should you choose to accept it is to seperate fact from fiction.............. If you want a good read try Tales of a Rat Hunting Man Rogues and Running Dogs The Working Terrier
