  1. im not that good at the real thing,so i doubt id be any good at simulation
  2. hi,i have two jills that are about 3 now and really need mating,but i have no space atm for any more,so im looking for a vasectomised hob in the aycliffe,darlo area,any help would be great, Skinnyrat
  3. you wont go far wrong with a rope through the collar
  4. he will be ok to start,at the start of next season,september,all you should worry about for now pal,is getting him obidient,and retrieving etc,if you say where you live im sure one of the lads may offer to take you out next season and show you the ropes,you seem like an honest guy,which should make it even easier to find a partner,all the best for the future good hunting Skinnyrat
  5. i believe grapefruit juice is a natural way of killing bacteria,you could use it to also kill bacteria on meat ,but i personally think its overkill good hunting Skinnyrat
  6. a dog is a scavenger,who is just as happy eating from your bin as from a pristine dog dish,i wouldnt worry about your dog picking up a germ or two as they will gladly eat stuff that a human would baulk at,and there stomachs are built to digest all kinds of stuff,but thats just my opinion,and viva la difference good hunting(and feeding)all,Skinnyrat edit ,you wont go far wrong feeding on a prey model diet,just ask yourself what would a wild dog eat
  7. raw is best,no doubt about it,its been good enough for dogs for thousands of years,but it needs a balanced diet,your best off looking at some BARF sites for some detailed advice, good hunting Skinnyrat
  8. in my opinion you should have got it retrieving before letting it catch anything,use a rabbit skin as a dummy,if you have to tie a piece of string to it and jiggle it,the dog should pick it up,then you got to get it to bring it back to you,with a puppy,you can usually just sit on its bed as its natural instinct is to head back there with its prize,or try in a narrow hallway where the dog cant run around with the dummy,failing that ive had sucess in the past by tying a length of washing line to the dogs collar and gently giving a tug,but its always better to try to make the dog want to come to
  9. eggs are good for a dog,too many may give the shits though
  10. i think you wont go far wrong with a collie cross,as others have said,that said theres good and bad in all crosses,beddy crosses look the business,ive never seen one run so i cant say how they do on the job,collie xs arnt the best lookers but they are smart,and easy enough to train,and if its your first dog that should be important,as you will soon get sick of looking at it,if it wont do what you want it to,its all down to personal choice,i wish you all the best for the future good hunting Skinnyrat
  11. glad to hear your pups ok
  12. a very honest post geordie,glad u had a good day,thats a nice looking beddy x(althoug iv yet to see one that doesnt look good) Skinnyrat
  13. all the best for next season tommy Skinnyrat
  14. thats a nice dog,it has a nice deep chest,bet it can run a bit
  15. i believe they were originaly rat pit dogs,but that was a long long time ago,i doubt if the handbag sized dogs of today,would have the jaw power to kill a big buck rat, keep us posted
  16. couldnt you just posion them,granted not as much fun,and if they decompose under the floorboards,you might not like the smell,but it will be much cheaper option
  17. hi moonmin,all the best for the future
  18. does anyone know where i can get some,as the vet wants 20 quid,thanks in advance skinnyrat
  19. well ill reply,as for being a puppet of asd,if you read through the thread again,you may notice that it was me who stuck up for your mate,markbrick's right to doubt was said without him being insulted,and i even ended up saying way too much,hardly the work of a puppet,but i wont deny andy has caught some impressive bags ,time and time again,who (apart from yourself)couldnt be impressed by such numbers,you are the only person who seems to doubt its true,which seems odd as you give advice out on how to catch the said big bags,but hares dont run on paper,and i,and probally a few others would like
  20. well i offered you an olive branch,and you showed your true character,if you want to prove how easy it is,just do it,instead of talking about it,put up or shut up,ive no more to say on the matter,unless of course you can post some big bag pics ,then you will get an public apoligy,for having doubted your claims,but that remains to be seen
  21. thats no problem mush,but im sure you wouldnt deny,having mentioned it before,by its title?,im not going to go looking around the sites to find the said post,as im sure your big enough to stand by your words,even when they come back to bite you on the ass regards Skinnyrat EDIT:ps,i feel its probally best to end any war of words as all its going to acomplish,is to make us look like a couple of idiots,and i can easily make myself look an idiot all on my own,i bear no grudge towards you,and hope we havnt become enemies,after all its rediculous falling out with someone who ive have never met,
  22. on offence to you mark,but i think hes gonna look like an idiot and a blowhard if he doesnt back his words up,but thats just my opinion,and my right to free speech,i dont claim to have caught much of anything,so that means i have nothing to prove to anyone,but if your gonna say how easy it is to do something,then surly you would be only to happy to do it,and prove to everyone that you can walk the walk as well as talk the talk,coz he seems keen enough to slag other peoples dogs off that he has never seen,well now it seems he has talked himself into having to prove his own words,and like i say
  23. and mush,if as you say ,and are even telling the lads how easy it is to catch big bags of hares,and as you also say how you like to post pics,im sure you wont mind showing us a few pics of the said big bags of hares,as it seems you have the theory all worked out,well,its a little late in the year for most to still be running hares,but as you are saying how easy it is,im sure the lads will understand you running at this time of year,just so can back up your comments,ill look forward to your pics,in the next couple of days skinnyrat
  24. mush,correct me if im wrong,but ive seen you write about a hare coursing video before,and it was called natural born hare killers,its seems funny that you suddenly forgot the title,is it possible that is because baz who posts regularly on here,is on it?,
