  1. I love Saluki crosses. My one and only lurcher was a half cross Saluki dog. His Sire was a pure Saluki and his Dam was a 3/4 Grey 1/4 Whippet and the dog was a good allrounder. Killed loads of daytime Deer and Hares (before the ban), never did much rabbiting with him but he did catch a few, also he didn't like foxes as a youngster but as he matured he would tackle anything.
  2. Is the terrier show on the Saturday or Sunday Bosun?
  3. Like Bosun says a chiminea is good BUT it needs to be a decent size.
  4. What annoys me is these fuckers come to our country, claim every benefit they can, get free healthcare etc etc and then have the cheek to turn on our people and ruin peoples lives by doing these terrorist acts. It can't be too long before the average British man has enough of this shit and there's some sort of civil war on the streets.
  5. Got to say everyone was expecting this. And no doubt there'll be more. Get the c*nts deported ASAP I say.
  6. I was of the opinion that the new chipping law would have dog catchers on every corner checking them but in my eyes nothing has changed and it was just a media frenzy about nothing.
  7. I was really on edge about getting my terriers chipped, but I got introduced to a proper country vet who appreciates a working terrier and their uses and I've got to admit it's one of the best things I've done. My dogs are all above board and if they ever go missing or (god forbid) get stolen there's always the chance I'll get them back via their chip. Fatman I'm like you. I'd say about 5 people see my dogs on a regular basis and I don't attend shows very often so who would know if they were docked ,chipped etc etc. But a little piece of mind does help.
  8. Smart dogs. The black one is in great shape.
  9. Yeah I agree. I've a mate who's a Para based at Colchester and hes not a full shilling. God help them lol.
  10. Rock dogs might have their uses and get some sport but Ive seen piss poor earth dogs be great in rocks and also the same cannon fodder were brave as they come in bales and drains. Drains, bales and rocks are unnatural for the game and so the dogs feel braver. Get them under the sod and you'll see how brave they are.
  11. Where do you get the good stuff from?
  12. I bought the Meindl Glockners last Summer and can't fault them so far. I've previously had the Le Chameaus, Altbergs and Lowas and rate these above all 3. Although the HanWags look a nice boot also. What you need to watch out for is the cushion type stuff used between the boot and the sole as once it begins to perish they are difficult to have the boot re-soled. The Glockners were the only boot I found without it.
  13. I thought shows were a bit of fun and a get together and the showing of the dogs was just part of the fun? When people take the hump over which dog won etc etc I find it very sad and not what WORKING dog shows are about.
  14. I remember reading in one of Harcombe's books that he thinks a Winter litter could be better than a Summer litter due to the weather being cooler meaning less chance of infection and less parasites etc. so in turn less chance of harm to the mother and pups. Would anyone agree with that?
  15. Meindl all the way. If youre walking get the Dovres, if youre digging get the Glockners.
  16. Name and shame the c*nt so he can't do it to anyone else. Bad craic when lads can't be trusted with dogs.
  17. Shit that mate. I've experienced the same thing with a mate and it's unbelievable how quick the time passes.
