  1. This is Fern, 8 weeks old. She is Keeper Bred, out of Shadow bre dog Cardy Keas and Stockiemuir Primrose bitch. Both hard hunting Labs. Dave.
  2. Hello Mate, You said they are coming back in a months time, thats when the fun will start again pal Is this the only litter you have planned this summer Olddog. Good luck with the pups. Dave.
  3. What ever you like the look of best, but make sure you get either from working bred parents, you dont want to have another pet to go with your Lab. Dave.
  4. She looks an absolute cracker, good luck finding her a good home. Dave.
  5. Nice pics, i bet there is never a dull moment with them. Dave.
  6. you have a pm Sorry Mate, never got any pm. Dave.
  7. Oh the joys of a new puppy :11: Good luck with him. Dave.
  8. Smart looking dog pup, will be intresting to see what size he makes, with that breeding he should make a cracking hunter of game. Dave.
  9. Cracking little pup mate. Good luck with the sale. Dave.
  10. If he has a full tail leave it alone mate and only time will tell if this will effect him later on as it depends what type of cover he is hunting, to be honest mine has a full tail and hunts alot of bramble and gorse and has had no trouble, but others can have a real bad time of it. Go back to basics with his training so you then know what training he has had and get as much into him as you can, if he is looking like he is loosing his head a bit make him sit and stay until he calms down. Get yourself a good gundog book or DVD on training and just work your way through it, he is at a good age
  11. You should have no trouble with a cocker mate, as they want to work for you unlike a terrier who is out for himself. I have both terrier and a cocker cross who has terrier in her she is far more user frendly and controlable than the terrier and she also dosent hunt to far away. They are a very versitile little dog, as mine ran in a mixed pack as a bushing dog and ratting dog for her first 14 months, then in March i started training her to the gun and she is coming on very well and is alot more controlable than i ever thought i would get her with her past experiance, in the short time i have
  12. atb means all the best. Good shooting mate. Dave.
  13. Training 2 pups from the same litter can be difficult as there loyaltys are to each other and not to you, like others have said breaking this and creating your bond with each pup can be time consuiming and difficult. Dave.
  14. NOW SOLD Many Thanks. Dave.
  15. Many Thanks for the pics Andy, he is a cracking looking strong dog. Good luck with the sale. Dave.
  16. Thats the thing Geordie keeping them active, We do Vermin shooting every weekend out of season, so there season never stops really, but we do drop onto Pigeons now and again which gives them a bit of a break. Dave.
  17. I have 5 Geordie so i know what you mean, theres always 1 that spoils it. Do you do much with them out of season. Dave.
  18. Nice strong looking dogs you got there Bsheep Dave.
  19. Pity mate its a real good pond with Bonny fish. Dave.
  20. Your dead right ESS, its when its only looks that people are breeding for when things go pair shaped, just look at the show Springers. Dave.
  21. Yes mate, he said you were mistaken (not his exact words like) Dave.
  22. I agree Hendo, it is nice to have lookers but it dont put game in the bag. Handsome is as handsome dose. Dave.
  23. Ive been breeding English Springers for 23 yrs, the two acros the middle of the photo look like theyre well bred, the dog at the back looks like a springer x setter and the bitch sitting at the front looks more like a sprocker than a springer i wouldnt be proud to own those 2, just my opinion P Smith You would have to look at many pics of the dogs, or even in the flesh before you could even start to come out with a statement like that. for someone who has been involved with a breed for that long it seems a very nieve response. (You get some right cocks on here at times) Dave.
