    Welcome to another Yellow Belly.........

    Some really interesting replies, thanks gents. Perhaps i'll start a separate thread on scenting abilities as the thread is being pulled that way like iron filings to a magnet Anything is better than a "show us your bull cross" thread

    No

    Personally I wouldn't say mental concentration is drive. I have owned drive focused dogs of various breeds, but not all dogs with drive had concentration......

    A crap photo but I got this dog as a birthday present in 1987. He came from a pet home in Nottingham aged 8 weeks and through stubbornness and youthful enthusiasm he made a ferreting/bushing/lamping companion to a keen youngster who really wanted a bedlington greyhound ...........

    Jason Powell won either best pup or entered dog (not sure which). Champion terrier was a local lad, sure somebody will have a better idea than me now I have written this lol.............

    I have a bitch here who in my opinion has lots of mental stamina, she will carefully focus on what's going on below ground for long periods of time and wont wander off or get distracted, BUT take the same bitch to the dales on the lamp in the peak of fitness and I know she wont be catching 30's or 40's. She would keep trying but doesn't have the physical tools.............

    Totally agree Ken 100%, my point was more that some dogs have natural stamina or it's in the breeding and some don't. My dog was fit but his breeding doesn't give him the natural stamina of some other lurcher types

    Stamina thread Paul, your turning into a tangent mod lol
  12. Simoman
    That wasn't the question though, this is about stamina

    Kits bite, same as puppies but soon settle down with regular clam handling, also the have kits teeth!!

    not an answer to your question but mental stamina without physical stamina is a recipe for disaster But is it Paul? What about a ferreting dog that needs mental stamina to concentrate on a warren for extended periods of time but may not be required to use physical stamina as there may not be many bolters that aren't caught in the nets? thats concentration i would say mental stamina without physical stamina can take a dog past it limits I would say concentration IS mental stamina

    Just wondered if stamina is an important ingredient in your rabbiting dog's? I'm not talking about hare dogs, just bunnies. Personally i'm lucky if my dogs run a dozen in a night before i'm off home, we just don't have big numbers on my permission but when I visited the Dales with Tomo I was in awe of the vast numbers and I can say without a hint of embarrassment that i called it quits for my tyke whilst Tomos bitch was still filling the game bag. I have no doubt the spirit was willing but I knew he just didn't have the stamina and i'm not going to injure my dog for the sake of a few more r

    I locked it, and of course it was because I wanted to feel all powerful,, Now I feel like an internet Genghis Khan. Not because there was numerous pages of arguing, photos that may of caused members problems j1985, was just about to pm you with the reason as you asked politely But "Lurcherman" has rumbled me

    Tree Pollen allergy?

    Well this was the first time I had been to the new venue and must agree that it has lost it's "grass roots" feel. Was great to see some old friends and meet new people, my ole mucka boots. Also met spindererlo, nasher, hywel and a couple of others. My family still had a good weekend and two days in the company of Dai Harcombe is always appreciated.............

    999 should be for real emergencies, surely?

    Ray I didn't know he was banned, BUT often there are reasons, reading it seems he is a member banned on previous occasions, so that's why a mod banned him again. Also warnings, discussions etc do happen "behind the scenes".............

    And I want world peace and that never gonna happen either.............
