Here you go; http://kilbournedeerhounds.com/HISTORY%20OF%20SOME%20PEDIGREES.htm Cheers.

You're right mate; evidently Ms Noble used to put Greyhound into her Ardkinglas Deerhounds now and again, to stop them getting like Wolfhounds, I talked to old lads who put Beddy into their Lakies, to add a bit fire, it's hapened with many breeds, but if I was after an F! Whipet/Deer, and saw one advertised as such, I'd be pissed off if I later found it had another breed in it ! Cheers. Sorry to go off subject a little but do you have any proof that Ms Noble added greyhound? It seems to be comon knowledge in Deerhound circles, and evidently she was quite open about it. Ch

jealous people in the running dog world....

No, (I take it I am included in the "idiots"), perhaps you could tell us ? Cheers. -
wanting to take the lurchers on a holiday?
chartpolski replied to staines!'s topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Last year a few of us went over to Balycommon, Ireland. the dogs were welcome in the accomadation and the pub, and I even got invited out for a days coursing ! Cheers. -

Problem is, mate, when you sell or advertise dogs on here "for a mate", some people automaticaly think the worst. They think you are a peddler using an excuse, they don't realise you could GENUINELY be doing someone a favour ! Cheers. -
Do they still have the delay in getting to full power ? I wasn't impressed with the one I saw, certainly no better than a normal Blitz. Cheers.

Bunny, no arguments from me, we all have opinions. My idea of an F1 is a first cross between two purebreds, i.e. "labradoodle " is a first cross between pure poodle and pure labrador,I class my bitch, Lima, an Fi as she is a first cross, deerhound/ Greyhound. In my mind, there can only be TWO breeds in an F1. I watch Grews every week at the track, some are first cross Whippet/ Greyhound, others are w/g x w/g, which I call F2, then there are F3, F4, etc. But the thing they all have in common, is that there is only TWO breeds in them. A Grew x Deerhound would to me be a Lurcher, or more correctl

BEWARE GENUINE DOG LADS ON THIS SITE
chartpolski replied to welshwizard's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
So; has anyone been daft enough to PM Merlin and ask what the hell he is on about ???? Cheers. -
If it was Grew, (Whippet/Greyhound), X Deerhound, it wasn't an F1. Cheers.

I've got another Deer type bitch, that was bred out of two workers, and both her and the bitch out of non-workers were brought up and entered the same way, and I would defy anyone who didn't know them to tell which was bred from workers and which wasn't. Of course it's probably better to use working parents...but how much better ? Cheers.

chartpolski replied to welshwizard's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Why do people keep coming up with these riddles ? If you have something to say......say it !!! Cheers. -
Does that mean it's a bad cross if the parents didn't work ?? LOL !! I agree it's probably best if the parents were workers, but my bitches Deerhound sire never worked, (although he WAS from working stock); and her Greyhound dam, never worked or even raced !! ( She was a brood bitch and very well bred). Would my bitch be a better worker if her parents had been workers ? She does everything I want and I doubt she would be much better if she was out of workers, Cheers.

Thats bad craic Den, when I read the title, I thought they had stolen your dogs !! Small consolation that they didn't, but the b*****ds could have !! Hope you get your gear back, or at least find out who it was !! Cheers.

I suppose it's down to what you need. I have a 23" bitch that is a decent all rounder, but was a bit small in some situations; so I brought in 1st cross Deer/Grey pup. She is now 29" and doing exactly what I wanted from her. Cheers.
-
No offence mate, but you seem to be a very naive lad, trying to get your experience by talking on here ! Fair enough if you are getting out and having a go, but maybe you should try and hook up with someone who has done a bit and learn from them. As for your dog yapping, it seems to me it was overmatched, to far a slip, possibly a hare, started to young, who knows ?? Also, if you ARE going to run hares.... get a better lamp. Cheers.

They don't need to be huge dogs, and if you are hunting in blackberry, native bush or pine blocks; then something the size of a deer/grey could be a disadvantage. The type of land in NZ differs considerably from the land in Aus, and different types of dog are needed for different land worked. I've seen and heard of all sizes and types of dogs worked on pig in NZ and some very strange, (to us in the UK), crosses ! The dogs in this pic were Blue Merle Collie, Staffy, and two Ridgeback X Labs; This was a pure Huntaway; They all worked pig. I suppose it depends on the type of

Your Views On Lamping Hares
chartpolski replied to jessythewhippet's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Why should the hare have more respect than any other quarry ? Surely ALL quarry, even vermin, deserves the utmost respect ? To be honest, I've caught far more daytime hares, and it's my favourite field sport, but if one gets up in the lamp, it takes it's chance, like all other quarry ! Cheers. -
It's EXTREMELY rare that a decent, adult dog is sold ! Even if there is a genuine reason for selling such a dog, they don't need to be advertised. If they are the least bit good, there will be people waiting to take them on ! And you've just realised there are dodgy people in the dog game ?? LOL !! Never buy an adult without a trial, or better still, get a well bred pup, from proven parents, and bring it on your self. Cheers.

what a brilliant gale, for lamping tonight
chartpolski replied to a topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Well, I'll be the first to admit, my night vision has deteriorated with age, but I find that with a red filter, I can't see a rabbits eyes at all !! Wheras a deers eyes stand out like a beacon ! As I say, it's probably my eyesight, but I find a red filter worse than useless for rabbits. Cheers. try amber Probably worth a try, also heard that green works OK aswell; but I'm stuck in my ways now, and to tight to pay to experiment with different filters !! LOL !! Cheers. -
