I gave an answer, and you replied being a c**t !! "Scotlands Lurcher Man" !! LMFAO !! I know for a FACT that there are good Jock Lurcher lads and lasses holding their heads in their hands and saying "who is this prick" ? Don't post when you are on the "Buckies", Save it 'till you grow up ! Cheers. P.S. It's "know" not "no" !

It's "bitch" ! And don't you realise what an arsehole you are making of yourself ? Cheers.
-
Yes; and I can spell.

Bit of a daft question; and some even dafter answers !! Just feed, house and exercise your dog well, and when the season gets underway, give it pleanty work, and the fittness will come automaticaly !! Cheers.

Was it with a woman ? I think I saw the same dog, and commented that I thought it was pure Beddy ! Cheers. -

I've just got back from two days at Selby, and my missus has been there since thursday, and we can't understant the comment about the toilet blocks ? There was a block of at least 20 toilets next to where our caravans and tents were ! OK, It weren't the greatest show, but I thought it was no better or worse than any other "Gamefair"; there was pleanty of country clothing and supplies stands around. I thought the organisation of the Lurcher show was shambolic, but the judging seemed OK. We enjoyed seeing and spending time with a lot of mates, and I had the good fortune to have a craic with two -

No, Dave, it was a stuffed and mounted badger ! LOL ! I think it was one of the prizes !!! Chjeers. -
You know I've actually never thought of turning the fences off, but I probably could do it as the first spot I drive past on both farms are where the power comes from. thank you for your input skycat you're always helpful. Thanks mate, it'll probably be my last post in the sighthound section, really couldn't believe how dumb some of the people are on here... I have to say I'm not overly worried about fences as a lot of the properties I go on don't have any fences on them but it will get annoying when I take her out on my own farms. thanks for your input Don't let the negative r

thanks for helping me get my message across mate. I think you've hunted with the bitch I'm talking about. Gerard had her, he got her off "dooley", the bitch goes by the name of Ripple. I've hunted with both Gerrard and Dooley, but the only Whippets I've hunted with down there belonged to Dromana, so I don't think I've seen your bitch. Cheers. It was the full sister to Milo. get less than half whippet in it but it's got the most whippet out of any of the other dogs I've had lol Milo is some dog !! If your bitch is anywhere near as good as him, she'll be a good'un !!

Feral cats are one of the biggest pests in Australia, and are considered fair game, give the lad a break ! But the answer to your question has already been given.......Slip the dog on another one and see what happens ! Cheers.

Whippet breeding, will a racer make a good worker
chartpolski replied to jimmy.jim86's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Aye, that Vixen is a fine worker... Seen her doing it day and night...... but it needed a real dog handler to show her properly !! Just joking, mate ! Cheers. -
They specify "pet homes" because, usualy, most rescues are sponsored by or have some affilliation with the likes of the RSPCA or PETA ! There are, of course, some rescues who specialise in Lurchers and Greyhounds, and have no qualms about dogs going to "working homes", but these are in the minority, and are the ones we should be supporting ! BUT;any rescue that looks after dogs has got to be admired !! Cheers.

Books are fine mate, we've all read them, but you cant beat learning on the run, as it were ! Get the dog, feed it, train it, excersize it, correctly, get it out in the fields when it's ready, and next year you'll be on here talking like an expert ! LOL ! As for cost..Who knows ? KC Whippets cost quite a bit, £300-£400, but unregistered and Non-Peds should be a lot cheaper. Get you dog and have fun ! Cheers.
-
I'm with paulus on this; it's just personal preference for dog or bitch. I've had both, and they all do the job if looked after and entered correctly. Also agree with trying to get a working bred type, usualy better in the long run. Do your homework, and don't just take the first one that comes along Cheers.

Is it a ped or non-ped ? Shouldn't make a difference as far as working is concerned, I'm just interested . Cheers. -
So basicaly; you got a pull because the driver had no insurance, nothing to do with lamping, poaching, hunting, etc !! What did you expect ? It's suicide going out anytime with a motor that hasn't got all the correct documents, these days, let alone a motor full of lads, dogs and lamps ! All the cop has to do is take a pic of your number plate, and BINGO, in seconds he knows everything about the car and the driver ! Cheers.

I live near Corbridge and I drive and walk around the area every day and most nights. I have an allotment in the area, and allways have the dogs in the car, and usualy my lamping gear. I've never had a pull yet, but if they were to stop me and try to take my motor for no reason, I'd be straight onto a brief and the Police Complaints Commission ! Surely they can't have a leg to stand on if all your documents were in order and you wern't actualy lamping, or had any ilegal game in the car ???? Cheers.

Theres ALLWAYS more to it... but we NEVER get the full story ! Cheers.

Where abouts in Northumberland, its a big place. Cheers.

Why on earth would "free running" be lazy ??? You don't sit at home and let the dogs out the back door for a run about ! At least I dont. If you take your dogs for a walk off the leads for about 5 mile, the dogs will probably do about 10 ! Cheers.

We shouldn't have booed Carrol; we should have given him a standing ovation !!!!....After all, we bought an entire forward line, (one of the best in the Premiership, at the moment), Cisse, Ba and Ben Arfur, for about A THIRD of the £35 millon that Liverpool gave us for Carrol !!!! LMFAO !!!! Cheers.

Huskies who compete do more then 20 miles on a tread mil every day but for a Lurcher that seems excessive free running in my opinion is better then road work for fitness Perhaps I should have said "theres not a LURCHER in the world", but I agree, free running and working, with a bit of road work is all a dog should need. Cheers.
-
There's not a dog in the world that needs 20 mile roadwork every day !! Give the dog a break and do a bit mooching around the fields and letting it run around. Sure, some road work may be good for a dog.... but 20 mile a day ??? !!! Cheers.

does 1/8th of a breed have much affect?
chartpolski replied to Big Jim101's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Well, to the "bag chasers" and the "rosette hunters", having a "Lurcher " with 7/8 Greyhound and 1/8 something else, allows them to think they have a "Lurcher"" !! LOL !! Cheers.
