  1. It seems a small pocket of dry lunches who because they can't offered things want to run other people down purely because they think a price tag is to dear, but as you say no one has to pay or buy anything. Little bit silly to start calling people pedlars because they ask a bit more than others. One asked me for a straitner in a message then said "you realise it was a joke"... Har har, because you joke about things like that ? more like your arse hole dropped out. Didn't take long to start finding the names behind the anonymous profiles who wouldn't give me the names
  2. Anyway Iv greatly enjoyed my short stay back on the hunting life, I can't imagine why Iv not been on here for so long. If you're genuinely interested in the pups feel free to contact me. Im in Cambridge I'm a real person I don't hide behind profiles and pretend names Iv no need to as I'm genuine man. ATB Bill 07719306404.
  3. You asked me how much they where and I told you the price I wanted for a didn't I. You didn't give me your name or where you are despite me telling you who I am. Your a Messer you had no interest in buying anything, if someone asks me what I'm asking I'll tell them it's pretty straight forward, you can't afford it or don't want to pay it fair enough. Breed your own then you'v no problem or just take a chance buy something cheaper, it's a free country, it's the same old story too many "working" dog people like yourself want everything for nothing, as I said if you don't wa
  4. As you'v asked a couple of times. She's a greyhound, looks just like a greyhound theyv never been breed for looks just speed. Iv used a well breed track dog to put some speed in the cross as anything other than that wouldn't produce enough speed to be useful to a Bedlington IMO.
  5. Wow I thought when I went into Bedlingtons that the breed seems it needs people who are just interested in keeping dogs for work. It turns out the way a lot of you all bitch about each other you'd probably be more suited to mincing about with a poodle on a green carpet. What absolute tarts. Anyway these are dogs that in the right I think should make decent ferret bushing and lamping dogs on what you come across as well as catching the odd hare given the right conditions as well, a nice little all-rounder, if you want to prove your a better man than me that's fantastic I
  6. What's kennel club registered gor to do with anything?? This is just why I don't come on here. if someone wants to genuinely buy a pup I'll show them the breeding Iv the pedigree here, I'll make a working pedigree with the Bedlingtons on one side the greyhounds on the other . I can't imagine the racing greyhound is registered with the kennel club don't mean it can't run round a track ( I'm guessing as you just look a greyhound up for it's breeding ) and isn't a greyhound, so you need a set of kennel club papers for a dog to have fire in its belly ? Iv had plenty of lads wh
  7. I spent many a happy winters afternoon after work spot coursing hares on them banks with my old coursing Lurchers, a bit warm round there to be taking a leisurely stroll bar a few big open bits out of the eye shot ?. Im a jack of all trades myself now dog wise I breed them to do everything, too much money and drama in the matching game for me now, such a shame, to watch a fit hare and a decent lurcher on a cold sunny winters morning really takes some beating on land like them banks.
  8. All from down your kneck of the woods Coco, my friend Alun Taylor from Rhonda valley breed the dog and got me the bitch and a bitch I had before that ( almost a decade ago, she got killed in kennel fight ) all from your way, I'll send you the working pedigree if you're interested, they get plenty of work through the season with us.
  9. 9 1 born dead 1 tiny runt that died at a couple of days . Left with 5 dogs 2 bitchs. My take on the cross is yes they a jack of all trades but going on experience around my area it the last 15 years you can't justify owning a dog purely for rabbits, this is a handy size cross that you will be able to take out and do a bit of everything and for someone who is limited to or doesn't want to own a load of dogs to have 1 dog that you can enjoy and find plenty of work for that's got to be a good thing for both owner and hound, I think you'll struggle to find a better 1st cross for t
  10. I don't post on here or come on here now I can do with out the aggro and argument just I googled Bedlington greyhounds to look something up but if you had no luck finding an F1 cross I have breed these. Track bitch that had her last race February cross my working Bedlington dog. I'll not be going through what my dogs are or aren't on here but theres some here if you have been struggling to find the cross.
  11. What's niave? The kepper shot 160 with a shotgun not me the keeper. Surely your not so niave to think the rabbits sitting in the corn are the only rabbits!? That was what got me the permission and that season I had good bags but at the end of the season there was still large numbers of rabbits at which point I stopped at seeing the first young rabbits in the doe rabbits for the breeding season. Next season they were almost gone the holes were almost empty were before they were very active. Makes me laugh that someone who has never been on that land doesn't know how many acres th
  12. But what I'm getting at obviously is as a rule people aren't nocturnal, If youv hunted muntjac you will know they are easier to take during the day as they rarely venture that far into open country at night so if you want to work a bushing terrier and lurcher in the absence of rabbits around me you'd have to work muntjac instead ( in the day ) if anyone is in ear shot in this busy country we live they draw a lot of attention and a lot of people would find that off putting to say the least so would be reluctant to change from hunting the rabbit. I find it very unnecessary people try
  13. Regards to breeding litters of Lurchers. Absolutely no call for Collie cross rabbiting dogs or anything specially breed to carry out a hard nights lamping and run all night taking big bags of rabbits. In 5 years I couldn't tell you a time when i'v run a dog out and thought that's anoth for you girl let's call it a night and in all honesty my dogs never get fit so they don't actually take that much running out. I can't believe that in the past i'v had to sit by the hedge line waiting a few mins to let the dogs get thier tounge in before sending them out to yet another squating rabbit.
  14. Australia is slightly different isn't it? There is lots of reasons not to want or need a single rabbit over there. To an extent nobody in Britain wants the rabbit to disappear it props up the food chain and actually benefits our environment like stopping brambles taking over and keeping heathland as it is. I saw some clips of Australian rabbit control on you tube and it was all out war the didn't care how they died just as long as they did some of the old film the numbers were unreal! Literally any breed of dog could go in a bush and catch 1.
  15. Most good dog people will. It's like when you hear the drop in otter numbers were due to hunts. Wrong it was pollution, hunts were the ones who noticed the decline and stopped hunting them. I spoke to Simon Whitehead at a show a few years ago about this. Disease, rabbit proof fencing, thermal vision and yes Lurcher folk not Letting numbers recover have meant rabbits are no longer a pest any longer. I went on holiday in the lake District there's no rabbits there massive areas void of rabbits, it's sheep country they should be everywhere.
  16. I'v not been on here for years but just wanted to see how bad it really is everywhere concerning the collapse of rabbit numbers. 8-9 years ago a friend who works on a big farm estate on the Herts cambs boarders came to see me... Fetch your dogs n ferrets on here as much as you like and john's farms over run with them I'll get you on there too!!! That year my friend Richard who got me on that land, shot... and I will admit he's a great shot 160 rabbits cutting a corn field at harvest as they ran from the combine. This year he shot 2! I had a great season taking decent number
  17. theres one doing the same on p4h buying dogs n just selling them at silly money An I the only one who doesn't see a problem with this? As soon as you give up the rights of ownership of a dog, it's got fuckall to do with you what happens to it. If you want a say in how a dogs kept, used, sold, etc, don't sell it or give it away, it's really that simple. i cant believe it baw, after years iv actually agreed with something you have said, talking some sense, instead of saying something for reactions or taking the pi*s, fair play! and no baldricks not your friend now!
  18. what was your result in court in this case? They had to give my mates dogs back when we won our case it broke their hearts! I stuck my 2 fingers up behind my back in the court, the country side police and natural england " badger experts " where behind us in the public galary, when they said there was strong circumstantial evidence but... not guilty. they dropped a bollock in our case and we stuck together, you can beat them, the antis didn't fancy turning up outside the court case either, the shout and jump up and down at fox hunts, but "badger diggers" they dont fancy it unless i
  19. It's a bigger picture than that, dog work and ferreting always let's a few go by the nature of hunting, the ones you let go will be shot or Alundie of disease. It's the same with fox's.. If you see a field of young fox cubs after the stubble and think I'll leave them to grow up. The next week the knob heads with the red beam and bullet rifle have killed the lot. If you would have run them there's a good chance you'll educate 1 or 2 you miss. So youv a choice run them now or leave them for the guns? Worst is when it's shooting on arable with no pheasants for sport?! I watch them on y
  20. i ant making it up! looking it up all surveys have found it talking the entire country, your lucky at the moment my permission had heaps of rabbits till 3 years ago. when it gets to you it will be a sad day. so your saying there is more rabbits in britan now than 20 years ago?
  21. Tomo iv seen them rabbits on your gate! I'd have a rabbit Dog too if I had access to that ground! I used to be able to take good numbers and have dogs that are no better than others but they love a hard night on rabbits but these last 3 years iv hardly took any double figure bags and that's not because my dogs are worse. If you rabbit lads started coursing that wouldn't fu#k it, police, labour money and the dog thief's have done that. I don't go coursing anymore I just can't be bothered to change my name!!
  22. Would you see dead rabbits on top dead with vhd? It really saddens me to see farmers put r p fencing every were and people shooting rabbits and fox ( he must struggle too for dinner) for no real reason as what there is don't really do any damage and there struggling as it is. It won't happen but I'd like to see night vision band, what's sporting in pitting such technology against animals? The public could never understand the respect most of us hold for the rabbit.
