No !! Cheers. -
I wish I could give you a "I LIKE" , but as a mod you aren't allowed them, so I'll just give you a Cheers.

im also a member and was for a good while before becoming a mod, yes its a good book but then again theres been a few good lurcher books of late, but there still books, yes the contents will be discused in the lurcher forums today and in years to come but the book belongs in the book section. nice edit by the way Aw c'mon, you know I'm like a dog with a bone ! I hate letting anyone have the last word ! And your "nice edit by the way"; I'm not sure what you mean, was that a genuine, or sarcastic comment ? BTW, a good tip for mods is never get into online discussions or arguments with memb

Of course no one can tell you what dog to like; and I'd never have thought I'd own a Doberman for over 12 years ! I was gifted a Saluki years ago, and when he finaly had to be PTS at 17 year old, the guy that gave him to me sent a Doberman to replace him !! Of course I had to accept this thoughtful gift, but it wouldn't have been the dog of choice !! I brought this bitch back to the UK and she started a whole new carreer working with the Lurchers and did a great job ! A fantastic house dog, guard dog, pet, companion, but would I buy a Doberman ? Definatly not ! Would I have parted with her ? D

Well, you're determined to have the last word on the subject; so....................... actuly, I would think that staements like "a lurcher is a lurcher", and "a book is a book", is about as dogmatic as it gets !! But you're the mod... I'm just a member !! Cheers.

Deano; I'd ignore any advice you have recieved on here ! Get the dog to a good greyhound vet and follow their advise ! If it were possible to diagnose a dogs injury on the internet without seeing the dog, then there'd be no need for vets !! Cheers.

You lucky, LUCKY b*****ds !! LOL !! Cheers.

Thanks for your reply and explanation. I, personaly, would have thought that a post that would have generated replies about Lurchers, Coursing, and top class dog owners, would have been better placed in a forum were it would be most read !! I.E. "Lurchers & Running Dogs" ! If you want to be dogmatic and keep it in a rarley read forum, that is your perogative as a Moderator. But you should be aware that some forums are read by FAR more members than other forums ! I appreciate the job you do as a Moderater, especialy as a NEW Mod, but perhaps you could take a leaf out of other Mods books, s

Tomo; perhaps the kid is "special needs", and instead of ribbing him as you and others do; and grooming him, as Bigdaddy and Moscow do; maybe we should help him ?? !! LOL !! Cheers.

I thought Jimmy Savile was dead !!?? He's alive and predatory on THL !! LOL !! Cheers.

Have a good cough and spit up the Modern Gamekeeping, Countrymans Weekly and Shooting Times you have swallowed you stupid, ignorant c**t.......I can tell you what you have seen, f**k all, that's what you have seen ya f*****g idiot! Wilf !! It's not like you to beat about the bush !! Tell the guy what you think !! LOL !! Cheers.

What "Lurcher World " would that be ?? The Lurcher has allways been a dog to provide food for it's owner; that was it's job from time immemoriable ! Of course there are wrong 'uns in the Lurcher game... but let's not sanitise the Lurcher ! It is, and should be, a working/hunting dog ! Cheers.

How did you work that one out mate ? When i didnt have a job getting to any good land was bloody hard work.even going with other lads had to pay for fuel. ATB sorry mate i should have explained it better,i mean a man will feed his family regardless of the law.i honestly believe we are in for some real hardship in the coming year. I know what your saying mate but i think the romantic tales of poachers taking rabbits or hares for the pot are just that (fairy tales). Lets be honest most of us work our dogs for enjoyment and to see the dogs work. Even so called deer poachers i dont thin

I just can't get out my mind a new character for Little Britain;... A Subaru driving, track suit wearing, bull cross owning teenager, with Vicky Pollard as his girlfriend !! LOL !! Cheers.

of all the sites on the internet you quickly thought of this one Possibly because this site has 40 odd thousand members, more than all the other UK hunting sites put together ??? Cheers.

Nail in the coffin ? It's way past that stage ! The funeral has been held, the wake is over, and the deceased, (legal coursing), is only a fond and distant memory !! If this injust law is ever overturned, it will probably be to allow lisenced fox hunts only ! Hare coursing as we knew it will never be legalised again. I'll fight to my dying breath to get it back, but my head over rules my heart and the days of the Waterloo Cup or the Forley are long gone and will never return ! I'm glad that I saw those days, but sad that the youth of today won't ... Cheers.

I consider myself as strictly a Running Dog man, although there are a few terrier breeds I like. There are any amount of breeds I thought I would never have near my house or kennel, but sometimes circumstances force things on you. Due to family circumstances, we now have a Mini Manchester Terrier, ( via the Ukraine, Dubai and Australia), and a Chihuahua, (via Australia) !! Never in my life would I have even contemplated owning either breed; but now they are here, they're here for life ! And a right pair of characters they are !! LOL !! They'll be fed excersised and looked after as well as my r

thats mods for you great with pc :laugh: So do the same as me and hit the "REPORT" BUTTON !! This thread should be where it will be read most; in the "Running Dog" forum !! Why has it been relagated to this barely read forum ?? Cheers.

Who's moving these posts ?? They are completely relevant to Lurchers and Running dogs; so why move them to an obscure forum on the site ??? Are you trying to restrict participation ?? Or justify your posistion as mods ?? Cheers.

"Sporting" Dog Breeds; Becoming more popular as pets ?
chartpolski replied to chartpolski's topic in General Talk
Wonder why this post was moved ? It is specificaly about "working" dogs and mentions Lurchers and Greyhounds. Cheers. -
Civilisations have allways been judged by their literature and books. The heathens and dictators have burnt books; from the Roman times to Hitler, and the Communists, to keep the people uninformed !! The Labour Government banned Coursing, and would like it erased from history; but as long as books like this are written, with interviews and pictures that are from the recent LEGAL past, then the next generation of coursers will be aware of what we had and continue to fight for the repeal of an unjust and wrong Law !!!
