Who's John Welch ???? Apologies for not explaining my question. You've told us all about Mr John Winch and how much you personally know about him and then couldn't be bothered to even know his name. I've a funny feeling the first time you heard of Mr Winch was when you read P3D first post. Another thing I find funny is how you ,P3D and Corkman are always the ones questioning the breeding of black lines when none of ye keep them. Even though ,Stopend, you did ask a couple of men who keep proper lines of black terriers for pups and they reclined. So, you boys debate the topic of the

Spot on post. IMO money ruins working dogs. How can you say that when there's two of your buddies churning out pups with false pedigrees up this half of our island. Maybe you didn't know but it's the truth. Personally I have no problem with someone selling surplus stock, adults or pups, but when that surplus is 20 + a year then they're a dealer.

aye whiskey How dare you ? I drink it neat. -
Thanks Sean, you've made up my mind. Yes I've hunted over the years with some of the families who are mentioned or their buyers are mentioned in it and it's amazing how the rabbit got them through the hard times. A fact that makes this new disease even more sadder.

It was me. You said you'd send it over to me with a nice bottle of scotch, remember ????

It's Official, Foxes Are Not Afraid Of Terriers.

I wouldn't think so. I'd say the fact he couldn't see me and the terriers weren't looking at him he felt safe. Funny enough on the same farm a few years ago I witnessed an amazing piece of animal behavior . It was a hot Summers day and I was sitting on a gate looking across the fields. The only dog I had with me was a small but racey Pit Bull bitch called Pepper. Across the field there was a Hare going about her business and she spotted Pepper and came over to investigate. She couldn't see me on the gate and Pepper spotted her and took of after her. I stayed on the gate and after a few mi -
Well not mine anyways, LOL. I went for a ramble this morning as it was getting bright bringing a couple of terriers with me. In the second field here was a large dog fox rooting so I crouched down behind an upright girder that was a gate post and started calling using my hand. The two terriers were loose in front of me. I wasn't expecting this fox to come as it's well lamped country but he flew to me. One terrier was having a good sniff around and the other was standing looking at me wondering what the hell I was doing. They were about 20 foot from me and the fox came within 30 or so foot

Fox Bite On Dog ...any Suggestions...
neil cooney replied to nans pat's topic in Working Dog Health & Training Talk
no.theres a concrete ramp running into the sea to walk the dog along in the water.theres a few million pound worth of racehorses walked in the same water everyday so it should be sound,ive always used salt water I'll bet those race horses don't have open sores. Keep the dog out of the sea. When the wound is completely healed by all means swim it. The injury is a result of an under-estimated wound allowed to get out of hand, but can be cured by common sense. -
Sean, is that the new book ? What did you think of it ? There's plenty about local men and country to me in it and was thinking of getting it.

Exactly and every time I see someone here in Ireland with Chinese writing tattooed on them I wonder do the Chinese go round with Irish tattoo's ? I know one girl who has a Chinese tramp stamp and she bent down in a take away and the Chinese girl asked her had she a son ? She said "No, only a daughter." Her tattoo said SON in Chinese.

Maybe Burnie PM'ed you Gnipper but several mates got eggs in and it's a pure lottery. I've heard of 1 from 60 eggs and I've heard of 18 from 20. I also know of one lad who got his box of eggs brought in with a big boot print in the middle of it breaking most of them.

I hear where you are coming from and totally agree,yet the reason id not waste brass on the CMW is the fecking nuggets that write with expert opinion and they don,t have a fecking clue,id take P.T. out of the publication and its a joke.I can read between the lines and get the gist of a purposeful article,the majority of the articles,terrier and lurcher orientated are written by folk that like a less educated audience. Just like the nuggets that write on here Morton LOL, unless you read an article or a post on here from start to finish how do you make your mind up that someones a nugg

I was calling in a fox one night and my father was standing slightly behind me and he started tapping me on the shoulder. I asked him whats up and he told me there was a barn owl dive bombing me and coming very close to my head. I never even heard a wing beat. Unbelievable and it turned out there was actually a pair working together. Regarding Short Ears, the best view I had of one was bolted out of an earth by a terrier and he only flew about 20 or 30 feet into a tree and sat watching me.

I swear on Wedgey and his boyfriends lives it actually happened, .

The Ram reminds me of a time a mate and I were out shooting. In a field we came across a large hole ,around 6 foot across, and we couldn't see the bottom. I threw a stone in but there was no sound. My mate thought we needed something bigger and he found a concrete cavity block and threw that in. As we were listening for a splash or some sound a great big bloody Ram charged at us from out of no where. It just missed us and fell down the hole. We couldn't believe it. We carried on shooting and after a while met the farmer. He asked us had we seen his Ram. We looked at each other and aske

A friend who's bald has a tattoo on the back of his head just on the hairline of a little man pushing a lawn mower. Sounds funny but totally stupid.

He might surprise you and pop in one day, it's what they do.

Fantastic. Who doesn't like Barn Owls ,

Looks like it's popular Adam, you'll have to put a sequel in the pipeline and interview some more old timers before they're gone too.

What did it have for breakfast ?

That's good news Fatlad. He has youth on his side.

I'd have called them Poo-pits, much more consumer friendly and stick a £15,000 price tag on them per pup. You wont sell them otherwise.
