whys that?

You are entitled to your opinion,personally I would say the standard of dogs is still pretty high. I don't think the original thread mentioned Jackers, he asked if it was good dog do you keep it ,? If it was an average dog do you get rid of it? How does keeping a dog after its working life is finished ,mean that you have no balls? A dog that has worked its best for you ,until old age set in ,and it couldnt do it any more is entitled to a warm bed ,and some quality of life in its old age ,thats how I see it. If that makes you laugh ,perhaps you have a unique sense of humour? Iv

if you've taken a dog into your home fella it's your dog.............end of. every one is entitled to do what they want with a dog, but if the lurcher and terreir men who breed dogs over the last few hundred years took your approach there wouldnt be any good dogs around today FACT.

The biggest majority of folk who have failed their dog, f****d it up or just spoilt it in general will still blame the dog mate. Not many will look it in the eye and admit they could have done better. Not very macho that is it - just blame the dog!!! you do chat some nonesense you, no body said anything about failed dogs, I had one bitch that I didnt part with till she died, she had something inside her that you can never teach you dont own many threw your life like that, but I like to always have at least one dog at its peak as my aim is to catch game, and to do this the kennel space nee

thats the way to be Im affraid, A bad or retierd dog takes as much room and food as a good one, if you look on them as a pet thats diffrent all together. I understand what your saying But if this animal in question has put its back out, gave all it had Everytime you were out then it deserves to be with you until its not anymore in my opinion it deserves a good home, but you dont have to keep it yourself.I will do my upmost to re home a trier

dont be a crabber! think there the best vids on lurchers ever made a bit dated but a great watch. sure some rabbits bounce of walls and some of wire on the vid but I myself catch heaps and some die in the middle some in the hedge row a dog can only take whats infront of it. what boring video that would be on golf courses with flying rabbits and a bag of 1 or 2 rabbits that would be. thought the jordies entertainig myself.

all I said is how are the kennels good? they are what they are. And if you came to me in sunny april to buy a pup you wouldnt cath me going out rabbiting!
-
im not getting into the whole hancock debate but ... who ever told you "there kennels wer really good"? there heapeded with sh*t and the dogs have never seen a rabbit or sheep and the man will tell you that himself. whats good about that? all your getting is an exact x that you were looking for, they havent got any reputation as a working lurcher. nor has the kennel.

baldockbanks courser replied to Good Man's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
to be fair a lot of saluki lurcher you would not dream of trying to train. iv raised two from diffrent liters exactlie the same. one wouldnt leave your side the other would get you locked up, unless you runned the guts out of it youd be kidding her up to get her to come close and then shed run off, and Im sure most coursing men have had or know of one like this. -

baldockbanks courser replied to Good Man's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Iv got a bitch breed purlie from coursing stock, She is a very good bitch with long net and ferret, marks 100%, soft mouthed and takes most rabbits 5 to 10 feet from the holes. not a good retreiver of rabbit dispite carrying dummies and tennis balls back when trained. Salukis have a better hunting brain than most other lurchers Its just they hunt for thereselves at times unlike the ever pleasing collie and kelpie. Dont mistake this for a lack of brains. -
Is anyone still ferreting?
baldockbanks courser replied to lurcherterrierferret's topic in Ferrets & Ferreting
I wont do it full stop. My farmers need me as much as I need them they understand Im a sports man. Its the same as the dog if they wont let me use my ferreting lurcher they wont have me ferreting. If I was paid and asked Id leave my lurcher but otherwise its all or nothing. -
I reckon my jaffas a bit far for you mate to come from leicster. funny every one slated me when I suggested offering my hob for a £10 locally on here but hes been ragging mine and my brothers jills about saving us a fortune and then hes off to a freinds to ruine his jills! what a job the jaffas got the lucky git ! !

mines so clever that if a hare makes a break on them they wont waste there valuable energie and come strait back ready for the next run. I didnt even teach them this they just do it. -
is she a tree surgeon when shes not chasing bunnys?

I know what your saying about the k.c price tag mate. If you buy a well breed k.c bitch look on it as an investment. you should get years of work from her and then what ever money you buy her for you can expect the same back x 10 if she has only 2 litters of 5 which is not unreasonable to expect from a cocker bitch. and cockers are popular little dogs so your less liklie to be stuck with any of her pups where as russel spaniels may be a diffrent mater. But at the end of the day do what suites you.

You are wright in a way that a lurcher is a mongral yes, to me if a lurcher is breed in such a way that you struggle to see its a running dog it crosses over to being an out and out mongral a lurcher only in its distant heritage. at the end of the day I could take say a collie x lab x german shepard x lurcher out of an animal shelter and work it like a lurcher, it would be too slow in a strait line but would most liklie catch rabbits when bushing or ferreting. but to me that would no longer be a lurcher lacking a running dogs shape and pace. if you dont want a dog that will go to ground wh
