Anyway after getting her and the pup back into the shelling box I whent up to the house and stripped off and chucked my soiled clothes into the outside utility room where the washing machine is and forgot all about them ....

  5. I was under the impression vasectomising a hob is actually a pretty tricky operation. As a result quite a few vets don't offer it. The last time I had a hob snipped I rang round about a dozen vets to get quotes and about half of them said they won't do it as it's too complicated. I had one refuse to do it too but there are plenty who will. My advice would be to shop around, I was quoted anything from 60 quid right up to 130.00 Like you I had a range of quotes. From memory I think the cheapest was £73 but most expensive was about £180! If you ever want one done drop it down to me mate I wi

  10. I think its years of being ran into by big b*****d police horses at football has left a mental scar ! So if 1 hand is 4 inches why not just measure horses in feet and inches ?.....is it some sort of horsey etiquette or is there a clever reason ? I'm sure the horses will get over it with a bit of therapy ........ Charming......stick your clique up your arse then ! Lol I don't have enough friends to form a clique ........

  13. The rest are all doing well and the bitch is a real good mother ... She tip toes around them in the bed she will only lay down when there are no pups under her ... She is very attentive and gentle with them so fingers crossed the rest will be ok .........
  14. Down to 11 ... small little blue merle bitch dead this afternoon ... I didn't hold out much hope from her from the beginning as she was half the size of the rest of the litter .......
  15. Collie grey saluki grey on both sides with a dash of bull in the bitch and a dash of whippet in the dog ......
  16. The scan wasn't a waste of time for me as I needed to know if she was pregnant due to work commitments and when to ease up on the dog .... No mate gaffer isn't the sire ... The sire is a dog bred by phil that Sirius off here owns ........

So if 1 hand is 4 inches why not just measure horses in feet and inches ?.....is it some sort of horsey etiquette or is there a clever reason ? Don't quote me on this but before correct measuring equipment was readily available men used an outstretched hand to measure a horses height and at some stage it was standardised at 4 inches ... I suppose due to good old British tradition it stayed as the measurement for horses ... Much the same cattle at market are sold in Guineas not pounds .....
  19. A hand is four inches gnash ... Get amongst your mates horses regularly you will soon feel comfortable around them ......
