  1. I have a dog that was bred by D.C. Neal I have done the same mating only using a Kelpie bitch and Greyhound dog not the other way as he did it so there may be differences in size but then again maybe not,time will tell and it will be interesting to see if there are any differences in size or not.
  2. Bitche's hopefully make around 23" to 24" and the dog's 24" to 25" that's only a rough estimate though as with a first cross then things are not alway's guranteed.
  3. My bitch was 4 years old when I bought her,I was lucky I.M.O. to get her and am very pleased with her work in the field.Anyone interested in a pup can see this bitch hunt if they wish,I have to be honest and say that when Ruby is too old for work I will probably get another pure kelpie to continue with while she retires,maybe breed a litter of pure kelpie's from her in the future who know's.I will say that as an allround hunting partner she is excellent and although she lacks the speed to catch rabbits in a straight sprint she makes up for this in other ways
  4. Hi Neal The mother of my bitch is lyndhurst ziggy sired by a dog called scoriochre cracker and the sire of my bitch is Karana Krypto,she was bred at the woolstone kennels.
  5. Oh yes indeed she does ferreting, bushing, marking,working the nets like a good day time dog should be doing, has worked the beating line and retrieves shot game too.
  6. Probably let them go at 8 weeks providing everything is well with them ............. Thanks Whin I hope they turn out well too Mike
  7. Yes I will be keeping a bitch back for myself ferreter.
  8. Well it only seems a short while ago that I made the very long trip north to Dave Sleight's to line my pure bred Kelpie bitch with his black greyhound "Price Cut".I had her scanned at 5 1/2 weeks and was told that there were 6 pups there,but this was only an estimate and there could be more or less when she eventually whelped.She whelped the pups a day early on the 20/05 (last Tuesday) she had a trouble free time which I was very pleased abut as this is her first litter and she is 5 1/2 years old,I have given her everything I could to help her and the best food available,I don't know if this h
  9. That mix does work fine in my jeep but it's not worth doing now the price of veg oil has gone through the roof as well
  10. This is mine all nice and clean and shiny..........................
  11. Cheers Whin,hopefully get a couple of nice racy pups out of the litter.
  12. Cheers Whin,I used nobby as he was what I thought was the best I could get for what I want.He's a bloody keen stud dog too
  13. I have cross posted this fella for you to see the pics of the bitch.................................................. Took a long trip up north last Wednesday but for a different reason this time,no rabbiting planned for the day but a good trip none the less. I have had my Kelpie cross dog for almost four years now and was fortunate enough to get him when I did as there aren't a lot of people breeding genuine first cross Kelpie Greyhounds,he has proved himself well over the years and I would love a bitch just like him .This is the reason for my trip north as a while back now I was fortunat
  14. Travelled up north last week to get my kelpie bitch lined total distance 500 miles,hope it was worth it ............should tell in a few weeks..................
  15. Does anyone know what his other stud dog's are like? I am thinking of breeding my pure kelpie bitch shortly and am considering using either his greyhound dog or the 3/4 greyhound 1/4 whippet dog he has....................has anyone used either of these dog's ? any info appreciated Thanks Mike
  16. They are £10 each, bit late for morning collection now though. P.M. me to sort out if you still want to collect them .
  17. south wales ; swansea I'm from Pontypridd and have a couple of jills that may be for sale.They are last years young ready to work .
  18. I may be able to help .................I live just outside of pontypridd.
  19. Yes mate,I took the pic a good while ago now it was on the front cover of the May 2006 edition
  20. Anyone out there got any spare mk1 ferret collars they don't need ? ? ? ?
  21. Spend 2 hours a month shredding veg the rest is fed as nature intended raw and on the carcass................... each to their own but I.M.O. dried food is shit and can cost you far more than a healthy barf diet ..............everyone has to start learning somewhere novice or not but you should also make your own mind up. I changed over to barf a good few years ago and could see the difference in the dogs after about 2 weeks, if I couldn't have seen a change I probably would have stayed feeding complete but the change for me was significant and was highlighted on a day out ferreting when my m
