Wilf, get some decent pics of the pup up !! I'm interested to see how this litter turn out ! Cheers.

Just an example of how "luck" comes into it.......... today I was walking my two dogs back across the field from my allotment when they took of across a wheat field after something and the deer cross came back with a split on the top of her front paw, and the little bitch was limping on her back leg ! Now this was 50 yards from my house, on soft ground, and both bitches are fit and have great feet !! Not an injury all winter, then this on the back field !! Even the best looking feet aren't invincible. Cheers.

Don't know what happened there, my PC wouldn't upload the pics !! Cheers.

Here's a bitch of mine from around 40 year ago, one of the firsrt Saluki types I'd heard of A first cross Deer/Grey bitch I'm running now; Cheers.

My dogs get almost no road walking and they have great feet. Some breed/types have bad feet no matter what. Some people swear by road walking, but in all the time I've had dogs, I've never made it a priority. Cheers.

Unusual for me to agree with Pantsdropper... but Bird seems a very decent guy, who contributes a fair bit, and works his dogs, so doesn't need slagging. Cheers.

working young dogs through the summer
chartpolski replied to davehunter1's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
I have to have a chuckle when people talk about "The Season" !!!! There is no "season" for vermin; OK, I understand, and respect the "September to Febuary " season that stops the hunting of mating, pregnant or young, and this usualy refers to hares.....but rabbits and foxes, to a farmer or keeper, are fair game ALL year round ! And most of the people who talk about "The Season" are running dogs,which of course is ilegal at ANY time, with the exception of rabbits and rats ! I'd LOVE to know the real numbers of dogmen who still run a summer hare, it will be far more than those who admit it !! LO -
I suppose it depends on your outlook; ifyou are just in it for sport,ok, but it's a different situation if you are a pest controller or a keeper. They will look on a den full of dead cubs as something they won't have to spend time killing at a later date. Cheers.

I don't realy understand your post, mate ? Aren't foxes fair game all year round ? Cheers.

Do You Leave A Run In Your Dog Coming Home.
chartpolski replied to ferret features's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Yes. Cheers. -
And they eat horse, frogs and snails !! Why on earth would anyone want to eat hedgehog ?? There's nothing on them, they're covered in lice, impossible to skin, (forget the romantic gypsy notion of covering them with clay and baking them, it just doesn't hapen !), leave them alone, they eat the slugs and snails, etc, that ruin the veggies in my garden !! LOL !! Cheers.

Hey !! It's all a wind up, it's only the internet !! To answer the origional question, I'd say again...Give the dog the best kenneling, best food, best grooming/conditioning and pleanty exercise, then when the season starts, pleanty work, and it should all come together ! There is NO magic formula for training working dogs !! Cheers.
-
Obviously "Scotlands Lurcher man " and "Coursing Man" Are either the same person or are two kids trying for a wind up, but they realy shouldn't come on a hunting site..they soon get found out !LOL!! They can't even take the piss correctly! Anyhow, I'm bored of them now... BYE BYE !!
-
I gave you a straight answer, mate ! What was wrong with that ? "Coursing Man"...Perhaps you need to change your user name, how much coursing have you done, if you need to ask how to get a dog fit ??? Cheers.
-
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. -
England Selby game fair
chartpolski replied to surrey lass's topic in Gamefairs, Meet Up's and Events
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 -

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 !!
