If it was me id take the dog out for hours at a time on a regular basis......the trouble with taking a young dog out for a quick hours exercise is they are so excitetable you really cant get a lot done through the dog not concentrating........most dogs will calm down after a while and its then that you get the dogs full attention and have him " in the zone " so to speak..................i wouldnt try to do too much with an exciteable dog you,ll just frustrate yourself.

Nobody wants to see nations wiped away mate......but having sent billions over the years as a nation we,ve done our bit.....if they cant get their act together by now then we cant live their life for them..................they are human beings with brains the same as the rest of us if we have kids they are our responsibility......

Is this one of them big tough rugby boys versus little sissy boy footballers topics While i dont disagree about the horrible influence foreigners have had on the English game.....lets not pretend rugby is squeaky clean.......are we to just forget about the fella chucking fake blood in his gob.....the England squad acting like jumped up film stars.........................or how about that Warrington Wolves player who got done for engaging in sexual practises with his dog !!!!!! I hate the fact that football seems to have become the viewpoint of which society makes moral judgement......its

....Cant remember my own name half the time yet the useless info thats stored away in the back of the mind.....

If your going to dictate a law...................then learn it first !.... Sole charge.......meaning if a person is alone in a home with a dog they are in " sole charge "........and theoretically your back in court.......if it was as simple as 1,2,3........................... The reason i aired that was because im not in the slightest bit ashamed of it and have absolutely nothing to hide in any respect.......im an honest person mate i dont lie and bullshit my way through life like some folk ..........now .....i have 2 guesses. 1.This is not the first username you have had on this forum. 2

Id go along with that

They say the Vivaro/Traffic drive pretty much like a car comfort wise......from what i used to get told they dont tend to have the life of a Transit....in other words 130k on a Vivaro is a lot of miles where a Transits just run in on 130k .....

Dispatch/Expert/Scudo are all exactly the same van along with the lwb Connect they,re the biggest of the small vans....will take 8x4 sheets yes.... if i remember right the Dispatch has a slightly higher load than the connect....swb connect is 625kg ...lwb is 775 kg.....Dispatch is around 830 kg......roughly from memory that is

Laughing at another mans misfortunes ................i bet your a real popular guy.

I do hunt mate...just i have to rely on others so cant get out anywhere near as often as id like............i cant see why folk stress over what other people do or say.....if you dont like somebody dont talk to them or read their posts its not difficult.
-
Ive nothing to hide mate...im banned from owning dogs .............so as much as id love to a morning out hunting for me takes a lot of organisation as im not doing anything with my own dogs....im lucky to get out once a week !.......im extremely jealous of a lot of you lads who can get up and out whenever you like.......doesnt mean i cant have an interest and desire to gain knowledge though does it ?.....im a big believer in learning from experience,but when that experience only tends to be a once a week delicacy......knowledge must be gained in other ways im not ashamed of that.
-
Totally agree with that.....why some people feel the need to tell folk they dont know what subjects to talk about and what subjects not to talk about i dont know If you was in a pub you wouldnt walk up to a group of folk and tell them not to talk about a dead pop star or football...........you would just mind your business and go talk about something else.....................really not that difficult is it.
-
While i respect the impressive qualities of a Greyhound or Saluki...yes i would definately put the performance bred American Pit Bull Terrier way above them as achievements within the canine world..... Strongest dog on the planet im not sure about or much care to be honest......and no their reputation was not built upon 1 or 2 good dogs........for me,a good representative of this breed will be first and foremost a deeply game dog in his heart.....followed by the lesser but important qualities of great intelligence and outstanding athletic ability.......i believe the type of gameness a fightin
-
If its for plastering you will have to rule out the smaller vans like berlingos or swb connects because you wont be able to get the 8x4 sheets in .....if i remember right the lwb connect is the smallest van you will be able to get them in......used to have a yard full of vans years ago you could of virtually helped yourself but its a Mcdonalds now
-
Not knocking that theory mate......but a 3 year old ex rental or ex royal mail van on 40k will often be a far more abused van with more problems than a 3 year old van off one of the national courier boys thats done 120k of motorway miles. Never right off the high mileage vehicles without first seeing where they came from
-
Small van ? connect,berlingo size.....medium ? vivaro size.....or large ? sprinter size 3 grand would get you about a 54 plate at around 90k...connect " " " " a 54 plate at around 130k....vivaro " " " " a 52 plate at around 130 k....sprinter Very rough estimate obviously.....hope this helps.

........................................" most "...............................or a couple ? On the general scale of competetive dogmen worldwide id say thats a very exaggerated statement
-
wow.....i love a good saying,and thats a great one i,ll have to remember that.....promise i,ll never quote it as my own though
-
Thats a very bold statement.....as much as i dont want to offend you......its a very naive one ! Your going down dangerous ground by thinking because YOU raised your dog with your own understanding that means that dog is 100 % reliable..........would you leave that same dog around a child without supervision ?.....you see where im going ? Hard blood soft blood,great environment poor environment......you just cannot be so flippant as regards genetic inheritance...... " you cannot put in what nature left out "..............nice talking to you
-
So we was in agreement all along then ............i dont disagree with any of that.....but whats that got to do with nature versus nurture,which was basically the reason you was giving for dogs attacking people ...never mind. The reason there is so many dogs in shelters all across the world is a society issue......not a dog issue.
-
Ive certainly lost a lot more than ive won over the years......but my high point was definately the Tyson/Douglas fight back in 1990 whatever it was.....it wasnt a good time for me financially so a bullseye at 44/1 for a Douglas ko was a real touch at the time.....................mind you,Tysons 4 previous defences id put the same money on the same result and lost so my luck had to change sometime.
-
Believe me mate.....the fact you work your dogs and have a good understanding of dogs in general..................makes you more qualified than 90 % of American Pit Bull Terrier owners in todays times !.....sad as it is to admit.
-
Ive enjoyed reading your thoughts on this subject its a subject i find fascinating .....i dont agree with you but interesting reading nontheless simply as i truly believe over the years ive been around dogs ive seen the absolute very best and very worst of what a dog has to offer....and do feel ive enough experience of a working/sporting dogs mind to be able to comment.....likewise i appreciate you no doubt feel the same and thats fine. As regards giving dogs human values thats not what im doing at all.....im simply making the comparison to a serial killer as regards the nature of genetics...
-
I thought that was f****n hilarious......Rio Ferdinand what a knob :laugh: .....stands there like a loyal soldier and black brother refusing to shake Suarez hand.....then within minutes gets absolutely clattered landing on his head by the very man he,s trying to protect when both were trying to take out Suarez........you couldnt have written it better it was like something off Laurel and Hardy That handshake carry on is absolutely cringeworthy and embarrasing ! Good result for Utd Rooneys a class act.
-
You are totally disregarding genetic inheritance......are we now to believe theres no such thing as a dog who is just wired wrong ?.....ive been around some very good dogmen over the years,men who could get inside a dogs head and were naturally great dogmen....personally i dont think i was ever on their level for the natural bond they could create with a dog whether it be their own dog my dog or a strangers dog they just seemed to have that special something.............that still doesnt mean they didnt have to cull the odd manbiter...... What you are basically saying is dogs,or indeed anythi
