    Ooty's lurchers do,the old girl he has has and still would pull a man down on command and she's 10 years old,her daughter is learning and god help any bugger that tried to nick em.The old one don't bark just sneeks in and your f**ked,the younger one does bark(goes quit mental when in the motor really)something he has bred to to keep in his strain.One of the founding dogs of his strain once went through a van windscreen at somone that was winding him up from outside the van,know a few lads with them that gaurd well and if no one belives me sneek in his house lol.

    Can the straw and hay be moved out so some dogs could have a go?,if so i'm not to far from you and don't mind moving a few bails for a bit of sport with my dogs.If not a few live catch traps or fenns in a tunnel should be safe enough for the dogs and kids,is there a good few there as if any of the above are no good then i would bring my misses lad for a pop at them with the pellet flinger.
  9. fireman
    There is nothing you could fault on them,tight feet,bone like girders,chest like a tank(but not over wide)head and jaw to be seen,fantastic coat that would please both smooth and rough coat camps,drive,protective and very clever.Don't recon there's many thefts of these dogs at all either,god i'm talking myself into having one i'll shut up now lol.

    After seeing the posts from lads who want a day out ferreting but are a long way from me in Norfolk,i will put up the offer for a day or two out on some of my permission.So if there's anyone who wants a go then here's your chance,i have a few different locations that include hedges,open warrens and a few over grown warrens that will test us.You may bring a dog that is broken to ferret,if your dog kills my ferret it will share it's hole and that is a promise,a bit strong but you have been warned(my ferrets are as important to me as my dogs).Don't mind who comes as long as they don't mug me off

    Pitmans who mate and who was belle out of as i've heard of this bitch,take it you and gw arn't loved up then ooty? . .
  12. fireman
    Have to get it where i can Smashy,my lurchers broke his toe and his nail sticks so far out he'll rip it off if i run him.Up to the terriers and ferrets for my sport this year and ooty for the lamping.

    I caught 3 rats in the traps in the garden last night mate and the dogs helped me empty them this morning,the acd pushed molly out the way and nailed the biggest for herself.1/2 8 this morning with the dogs going mad,the rats screaming,me trying to be cool so the neighbours wouldn't see what a sight and i bet the whole road heard lol.Will get some pics up of the dogs when the clever one puts them on photobucket.
  14. fireman
    Wonder what they will look like,whats your bitch out of mate?,any pics.
  15. fireman
    Ate one myself the other week and found it very nice,don't know of any meat thats dodgy for ferrets to eat.Saying that i wouldn't feed them on a cat,they can get all cat alements so wouldn't take the risk.
  16. fireman
    Have fed mine everything from mice to deer and day old chicks to pheasants,chuck it in and they will eat what bits they want and i remove what they don't eat.Mine are having rat today from my live catch traps,have fed them rats before and will carry on doing so but some will say it's a big no no.
  17. fireman
    I have John and what a do it can turn into,i just tend to take my terriers these days though do live hand catch sometimes(with gloves on though).Got to keep yourself on the ball,although the last one got me in the side of the thumb.Still the terrier pups had fun playing with it and it helped with thier education.
  18. fireman
    Had one help me to empty my live catch rat traps this morning,no messing,straight in there and a good crushing bite.
  19. fireman
    Like everyone has said feed them after the heat of the day has gone,i keep mine in a court outside and just feed them like everyone has said and get no probs.You will never get rid of all the flies but simply taking away the left over meat in the morning will help loads.
  20. fireman
    Yep use tights but drop the whole net and rat into a sack, trying to extract them from the tights is hard work and letting them chew themselves out is easier.
  21. fireman
    Do not dig into a sand bank while on your own,i had it happen to me once when i knew no better.I just dug straight in and put my self in the hole,it collapsed and thank god i had someone with me.Use a few ferrets and i would use a long net around the place rather than walking over the holes to net it up,we have a lot of sand here in norfolk and it can be a real hazzard,still easier to dig than clay.
  22. fireman
    Not so much kayak fishing but canadian canoe fishing but have had some good results from them,a little landing net helps when unhooking the fish,holds them in place for you.They do let you get to places boats can't go,was fishing off the pembrook coast and we were getting some good results.You do want to take a good little range of end tackle with you as your'll come across all sorts of marks,we were allways thinking of making up a keep net of sorts as when out on sunny days the catch can suffer but never got round to it.Large fish can tow you along for a bit and thats a mad feeling being towe

    Nice looking dogs there mate,know what you meen when they get going.Have seen one pull a man and it had him by the back of the neck,have also seen ours put my lurcher over with so much ease it was untrue and do agree if they make contact job done.Met a elderly couple walking some on a beach in West Wales and they told me there is a bit of research being done by the owners club on hyredidtree(can't spell that one) faults such as cancer and hip probs,it seems there are some ped dog owners who do care about their breeds future.A pic of ours a while back being a sun lounger for my plummer.

    The bitch in the pic is about 21"ish the one i'm looking after is slightly taller 22,23",went for a walk down a beach with all the dogs today and she is very protective,she has to be between you and strange dogs.Both dogs have been out for a few mooches with the other dogs and arn't to shy of getting in cover with the terriers,they certainly don't seem to have a reverse gear but are controlable.Totaly echo what Dogmandango says about them and they really could be anything you wanted them to be,the sort of dog you could have round a farm that wiould kill vermin,round up livestock,go ferreting w

    What i do know is their both pure breds and about 18 months 2 years old mate,weren't kept in the best of conditions and ooty bought them more because he felt for them than because he wanted them.They have filled out well and have really come out themselves,they lived on chains so have had no training what so ever but are coming round,i have doves,game birds and a ferret court in my garden and have only had to tell them no (in a stern voice mind)when they took a interest.A real shame as you can see if had from a pup they would be such a obediant dog(but like i said their coming round),they have
