just think if England win wed , and go to the finale , good god the place will be buzzing 100% , but prob wont happen , but you can live in hope, great to be English , proud of our Land,Air,Sea , people , great display by the RAF .

what type work you got mate, sounds interesting being out side , i liked out door work better than stuck in factory etc .
-
yeh sounds like it , them mals are head bangers , seen few vids and they bite anywhere not just sleeve , suppose if they went right into the bloke throat and locked on, you be fooked your dead . if any dog of 50 odd lb want to really bite you and lock on your in trouble, my big dog Buck got a feral cat the one day, it was on his head 4 feet, but he got it in the chest, killed it but would not loose it no feckin way , ok he big dog with powerful jaw i couldnt get him to loose, but thank god he soft with people and dogs, them bel mals could be very dangerous animals. but i am with you

another way to look at it, is since 66 , we only been in this position 28 years ago and lost , now we may loose wed, and go home, but i got gut feeling we will win , and get to the finale , and take it from there . it our best chance to lift the cup this year, all the big teams have gone, and we played easy teams compared to England as yet .The real test starts wed , maybe the other teams are bit better, but with bit of luck and grit , you never know any thing can happen . Come on England

spot on mate, i dont think i can get it out my system haha , i did speak the other day to a old bloke , who was fookin 82 lol , he got labx , and waled it every day for a hour or so , it was rescue dog it was 4 when he got it had it 2 years. i told him that i like a 1x beddy x grey when these 2 dogs of mine had died , and thought i might be to old . he said bollox , you look very fit and strong now , he said that dont leave you really, he said 30 years lamping dogs prob done that for you . you couldnt sit at home all day looking at the telly , he said when old Bryn gone , yo

COLLIE X GREYHOUNDS...ENDANGERED SPECIES...
bird replied to japs eye's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
thats a terrible injury fora running dog mate, my old lurcher x lurcher bess had the same , it finished her 4 1/2 yeard old, she was good5 on daytime hares , and good on rabbits and foxes, she looked like brindle greyhound 25 in 55 lb , prob 90% grey and drop of whippet, and collie, i kept her 14 years till she died , she was nasty fecker with dogs cats , foxes lol -
i think when you been around lurchers, terriers for 30 odd years like my self , it be very hard to not continue doing so . funny thing is it been on my mind of late , i am 66 in 2 weeks, old Bryn 11 in sep , Buck 6 in august , so really in 5 years both these dogs could be dead from old age. now i be 71 then lol , now i am still fit and quite keen , still lamp Buck once a week , and mooch every day for couple hours. i have thought when them have gone should i get another lurcher , i like 1x beddy x grey make good dog not to big, and ok for bit of lamping and mooching in the day, i would

bird replied to japs eye's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
no prob mate , you right with alot gsds they do have probs , you really got get e/e gsds if you want to use this breed, was it your lurcher that had the in jury, or Razz ? didnt think he had injury Max on here prob could say , but alot of greys get injured there fookin nutters at running , Raz was big grey 29in 75 lb , Buck got his size i think from him Buck 28in 86 lb -
COLLIE X GREYHOUNDS...ENDANGERED SPECIES...
bird replied to japs eye's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
yeh , it was Blaze prob my best collie x grey, good on rabbits and ok on foxes , he take them, but diffent mind set to Buck , Buck more full on than what he was, but not bad dog. he was from richard jones b/b x grey , back to 3/4 grey 1/4 collie bitch that a lad owned , so not hancock bred really . i think that what you got to do with colliexs out x to other breed drop of beddy or pit to colliex thats what go for if i ever wanted colliex type again , i like 1x beddy x grey that make great lurcher not to big and tackle most stuff , might get one in the future if i -

bird replied to japs eye's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
, yeh ive heard that mate , there head bangers lol . would make good x to a lurcher though , better i think than a bel mal , similar temp suppose , but stronger type dog , Buck very docile so was his mother , couldnt live a head banger not for me more so at my age to old for that crap now haha -

bird replied to japs eye's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
thats fair enough mate, yeh the dam pasterns were down abit true, the reason i liked her though was good hips, strong long back , and great temp, we knew Razz Buck sire was very good mid distance greyhound , and all running dogs will norm sort out most other defects in other breeds. 2 vets told this as well, that Buck be more healthy than any pure gsd . Being honest here now , if colliex greys had the same temp as a gsd x grey , i would have stuck with them , thats not just Bryn , thats all the others ive had over the years, they lack the guts = bottle of a gsd fact . i dont -
and me mate , be bloody hard game , but think we just have enough to beat them. i think France will be in the finale , and prob lift the cup , but you never know we just need a bit of luck on the day, , WALKER , PICKFORD ,were Brill great game it was Come on England

i see few by me , one old lady got lovely 1x whippet x grey bitch, about 23 in a cracker, it 7 year old i think, dogs of the lead but quite well behaved , then another bloke got 6 lurchers mainly deerhound type xs and small beddy type x , these donr go off the lead much. But i have deff changed my mind about about rescue lurchers , these good people give them nice home , affection , etc. if not for these type people the dogs would be put down , old Bryn who 11 just a pet now, but the old bugger still hunts in the day like he did when he was 2 year old , he could make nice rescue

if we get passed Sweden , and Russia , i think loads will fly over to watch them in the Finale , we could make History it been long time coming deff.

just out of interest do or are any Irish terriers worked to day, i know few wheaten are still worked, i seen a nice irish terrier the other day over here in England , thought maybe x back to whippet x grey bitch or small grey bitch you get nice size lurcher that have plenty of speed and guts for few charlies a good catching rabbits , just a thought the dog was about 20ins prob show stuff , but not bad looking dog and good temp, just a thought .!!

funny you saying hat the last bit, got to back to loose him out, if you been out in the day your self. even though my 2 are outside in kennel/run , they hold there self's till i walk to have shit and piss, even like now this last 9 days mine have been in the garden 12 hours every day, and they still wait to go out to re leave them, dont get me wrong i know i am very lucky that they never piss or shit on my property . but it gets my wife back at times , say if we gone to a wedding or just might out/meal , ie always got to get back to take to dogs out to be clean , ive been doing it now ne
