  1. I have some of this years siskins for sale , nice birds aviary bred £35 each or £70 a pair , can do unrelated pairs
  2. Border terrier = rough coat thought everyone knew he put it in his breeding early nineties?
  3. Thats a poor looking Deerhoundy bitch,short coupled,short necked,narrow fronted and weak skulled,the dog looks a tad wider between the ears but is slender jawed and as weak looking as the bitch.A very poor representation of a Deerhoundy.do you always have a bad word to say? Not always,this is a site for open debate and discussion.Nearly all the posts on this thread enthused about the pups.Many know im a massive fan of Deerhoundy lurchers and id not wish prospective Deerhoundy lurcher owners to be influenced by poor specimens,which many are.Looking at these two it would be easy to believe there
  4. thought you had a couple of ratting running dogs as well?

  6. Done it a few times, went out to early ground hard dog runs sound, let it out of kennel in morning and it's lame, mate blaging me to go lamping at the mo , even my mrs says this time of year it's called limping!
  7. Don't want to hijack the thread but does anyone know of a boneman Coventry area please? Richard torr not doing it now I used him before
  8. Watched a programme about the Welsh sheepdog the other night, anybody used one as a lurcher cross ? Collie brains but bit more natural hunting?
  9. I can't work out if people are saying the dl170 is better or worse than the blitz, has anyone compared the 2 together for distance?
  10. Bought this book and took it on holiday for a read, I've read a lot of. Books over the years on lurchers and the authors experiences with them, I was very impressed with this book and could tell it was genuine, maybe t he best book I've read on lurchers and terriers, not bought in ready made dogs like a lot of them do now but creating what suits her from selective breeding over decades, alrounders are hard to get but she bred a good few, fair play.
  11. is it saluki bull, cross whip grey, or saluki crossed with a bull whip grey
  12. that's made me want the season here now!
  13. It is actually against the law to kill a mouse with a dog they are covered in the hunting act not if flushed to gun by no more than 2 hounds like!
  14. . Triggers already said he took the opportunity and stacked the odds in favour of his pup it's these llottle things that are the difference between some handlers living breathing there animals knowing and knowing when it's coming home a winner the pups probably dreamt those litltle catches over and over and will do until his next little conquest.i am afraid there's very few handlers that come up to scratch and have that little bit something else I believe trigg has it end off he has been schooled where it matters from a bairn in the fields and woods.speed who mentioned speed lol they're feckin
  15. I bought a sprocker to use as a bushing dog with the lurcher and I found out that it takes a lot more training to use a spaniel properly , I have spent a lot of hours training it as a gun dog which I have enjoyed doing, it is by no means the finished article but its in my eyes doing very well, I will use it this season on shoots gradually doing a bit more as it learns, the thing I am thinking is will I be able to use it with lurchers as well or will it maybe ruin it as a gun dog,stoping to flush and picking up etc, anyone do both to a high standard or is it one or the other?
  16. I've seen dogs entered to early mine included, yap ,yap , gutted, never again, why over match a pup that's going to do the job when mature physically and mentally? Not worth the risk in my eyes
  17. Had 7 chicks out of 1 pair of siskins , think I will call it a day now as feathers moulting on adults, anyone ever had siskins with white rings round there necks before?
  18. Barf this time of year for a yard full of dogs is hard work, grain free dry food is good mainly meat protein good fats and veg,
  19. Grain free dry food is good
  20. how's it made up? Beagle x lab?
  21. Sorry, is the sire three quarter bull or three quarter greyhound? Thanks
