lurchers

My mate had 2 over the years a blue Merle that snapped its leg at 13mths old so he was pts,the red Merle was keen as anything to,but started to growl on at my mate after it turned about 21/2yrs old.He said the only fault with them is they are to fast and strong headed but loved teeth and big game.

I’ve never known anyone from day 1 of the ban ever getting stopped or checked to look at paperwork or who done it.Just a money making racket

Old Austin princess,allegro estate,ford capri and mark 2 escorts in the 80s and 90s.Then moved up to Astra estates,escort estates and now 4x4 pickups

Diatomaceous earth is shit,max force quantum is crap to for ants,use a good liquid insecticide and soak it down as much as you can to the nest to kill the queen.For fleas ya best off using the stuff ya put on the back of the neck as it works a treat,but they reckon vosene shampoo does the job but I don’t think you can get the old stuff anymore.But if you can get some fiprenol insecticide that’s what’s in frontline

That might not grow back mate my old bitch ripped hers like that and never came back.Just put some healing powder or cream on it and go from there mate.

There is loads around me mate but I still don’t want another lurcher

Yeah the last time I heard he was working for Durham county council I think on the pest control but that was a very long time ago.At the end of the day just because you are in books and a member of a club ya still don’t treat people like that mate.Thats why my mate charged him to line his bitch.Any one else he line them for nowt.He lost all the pups and still knocked on Alan’s door for the stud fee

Alan Wilkinson only coursed with his in a club apart from that did nothing else with them.No where near what we did with them.He is the only man my mate charged to line his bitch as no one liked him.He was an ignorant man and looked down his nose at to many lurcher lads.

Don’t do what a lot of people do that’s never had one mate and expect a world beater at 12mths old.They mature slowly and start coming into there own at about 18mths old but the bitches click quicker than the dogs.

Over the years they have got bigger but like chats says doxhope was the main ones up here,and you got a leggy 1 now and again.But done the job.

That’s mint

If I wanted another lurcher I would be tempted for one of these,but couldn’t do a lurcher any justice now apart from big game.There’s plenty of that around me

What lad from the northeast and which hunt is he on

They’ve gone nuts this year

I did to mate but so far so good
