  1. well take my 2 last lurchers , bryn my 1x collie x grey, bryn at 9 months old, had caught 100 rabbits, he just had that knack, his strike, and pace was very good, he still knock over few rabbits 10 year old, he died at 14 year old .Now Big Buck , could catch rabbits at young age similar bryn , he was the same, ok he wasnt bred just as rabbit dog, but he had good strike and pace for big dog . i say at 3 -4 years old he was on fire, he catch and hold big things, feck me he bring back foxes to me lol , when he got 8 year old, he lost bit of pace. he 10 now he just like a mooch at night for 40
  2. your right mate, i just dont GET this size, people keep saying his small . lets GET this straight once and for all, Usyk 6ft 3in , 100kg= 15st 10lb. now the great man Ali was the fookin same size, after his ban when he came back he put on weight, as lost that bit of speed. i still think fury will hold all 4 belts, put it think it could be is hardest fight of his career deff, i really hope they get it on this year i deff pay to watch it, lets hope it comes off, as all boxing fans would love to see it.
  3. Is it on April 29th= Fury v Uysk or more bull shit, in Wembley if they dont, they both got fights this lined up, I think that's what happen, for some unknown reason they won't fight, but think Fury will hold the 4 belts, if they 100% going to fight I watch it.
  4. Spot on, like alot on this hunting site, been hunting with lurchers a long while, me 35 years, in that time if l am honest, they didn't want you on there ground 40 years ago, and nothing changed. Only now since the Ban with hunting dogs went though England / wales, it got 100% worse to try work a lurcher, the ban made it easy for a farmer or keeper to give a big no to you. I used to go round lot of farmers asking and even done 8 years beating. But the rife lads always given the nod from keeper or farmer, they shoot a rabbit, than ferret or lamp with lurcher. Yep it's finished I think with
  5. Yep, deff a collie thing, with them watching you all the while old Bryn I had the 1x collie x grey, was just like that. And very easy to up set, say the wrong thing, and you was fooked, he stop working, big Buck very sensitve as well, I think it trait in all herding type dogs, there very in tune with there owner. Both good in cover, Buck go into thick Bush etc if game in there, he smashed though door to get a fox, yet when not hunting quite in kennel, good with people /dogsike said on my doberman post, he not dog aggressive, he don't like to fight any dog, yet full with his quarry. Your pup
  6. And me, like bold pup. Another thing, get the pup out on its own, without its litter mates there, then you really see how bold it is. If say you only after a male pup, just do the above, this litter sounds not bad x, I like drop of bull in the x. And I like drop of collie as well, not over keen on salukis, but it be watered down any way, they had great stamina, and good feet, but from what people say they can be very aloof, but like say the collie and pit, might put that right.

    Dobermans ?

    had one attack my dog for a 2nd time now, ok it got a muzzle on it now, 1st time it didn't . it as big as my dog , poss bigger so it big animal. my dog not dog aggressive , but the way this fookin was trying to bite him, it good job as he kill that twat deff. he been working dog and knows how to use size and teeth for his job , he dont want to fight any dog, he just moves a way from them if they try to kick off on him, but like my wife said many times it bloody good job he soft with people and dogs or be nightmare to take out. dont know nothing about Dobermans , but i think read there g

  9. yeh, old post, but i did see a bit of that vid, think it was youtube with the pat x whippets , they were black about 20in racey but weak things, i liked them alot. was few years back , so not many about now i think, but deff nice little x for rabbits , rats, and prob up for a Charlie , the none ped male whippets down the track , were game little dogs deff.
  10. was reading that a XL bully dog was been stopped , reasons from make of it the ear cropping etc .I dont know much about them type dogs, i not that really bothered them, but got in a bit disagreement with couple people that like the breed. i said it just a money making thing, and macho crap to sell there pups. i know bloke who got a cane corso natural ears and tail , now this thing would bite if you went in the bloke house, i wouldn't trust no way, my mate got a borboel bitch brill guard dog , both these type dogs natural ears, i know borboel have natural ear, but the point i am making, i

    cramp

    as daft as it may seem, get on of those hand grips , you prob seen them there spring loaded , might be bit hard at 1st, but it will help. but make sure you get one that you can spread fingers easy on it . ive got quite big hands, i can do it, but next time i get extra large size . with all any kind of joints probs keith, you got to keep moving them, i learned this from 40 years bad lower back, my knee fecked now but do knee exercises 3very day, plus back exercises , more supple you are in all your body hands, feet , back it will all help , apart from your dick , that just shrinks with old a
  12. Meaning with collie in the x, about a 1/4 that plenty enough,. Hope it works out for you, ?
  13. Well read your thread on this post, and the thing comes over to me, is 2 things, 1st the dog age 13 month old, and the breeding. It a long dog, there not going to be that biddable, as other lurchers, the only sight hound that are clever, and will work with you are whippets, what you already got, 2nd it's age, I know you got it at 8 month old, I know this is young, but with say 9 week old pup, you mold him into your mind set, and it by time he. 7 month old, he know your the boss etc. If it was me I stop all playfighting with him, just do lots of training with him. Start with recall in confined
  14. Yep, nice 2nd gen 1x pit xgrey, make great lurcher, enough pace, not bad wind for this type x, I have seen few race 1xs, there not all 80lb heavy things, plenty 70lb dogs, that kill and cat ch foxes, day/night.
  15. None, just being around them, and give them nice easy attention that all they need. Most my colliexs, liked to play with a ball, my. Bullxs weren't that bothered, most lurchers, sighthounds, have nice calm temps anyway, not like you playing with full on apbt lol, even if they got some in them, it be watered-down with greyhound in them.!
  16. Looks great, when you do it again, save me a nice big plate?
  17. you could be right last fight he was 15st 11 lb , maybe fight 15st 5- 6lb , he be quicker and not gas out with the extra 6lb on him. his size 6ft 3in 15 st 6lb, was the same as Ali size, people forget that, i hope they get it on this year. But be good fight .big Joe as fight with either usky or fury, that be good fight , joe got good stamina, and can punch.
  18. are the still fighting in march, from what ive usyk wants to fight in march, fury said yes ok, so is this just more crap talk, or will it happen.? if it does happen i think fury beat usyk on points, he wont ko usyk, fury just out jab him with his reach , if tries to get in close and drop his extra 4 stone all over him, like did with wilder, usyk with counter it, and nail him with some good strong shots. fury clever boxer he prob know this, so he just work of his jab. fury win the 4 belts , from this fight, if rematch think go same way unless usyk, can get in close and nail him .
  19. you have the dogs both side of the fence Davie ,? you need a dog either side for the bolts.
  20. Well done, hobs did well, dog' looks good.
  21. They can Davie, my old bitch I had lurcherx lurcher most whippetx grey, with bit of collie, she still knock few over in the lamp at 12, OK not long hard runs, but she good strike on her, nice size 24 1/2in 50lb good pace caught few daytime hares when young lived till 14. Big old Buck ageing quicker than her, but he lot big dog, and I think big dogs age quicker, sad but true. ?
