  1. And don't forget that a dog has the shortest digestion of all mammals and will completely digest his food in 8 hours so if you are going lamping at say midnight you can feed a normal meal at 4pm and the dog will have a full tank to run on ..........
  2. Feck me can the Irish just not give a straight answer to a straight question ..........
  3. There is no season for rabbits ... They are classed as vermin and can be hunted all year round ..... I think what the lad is after is what are the LAWS for taking game with a dog in Ireland ... What can you and can't you legally hunt ??? ............
  4. I have tried every natural remedy under the sun to no avail prescription meds are ok for a week but as soon as I get used to them they just don't have any effect ... I also have outbursts like bird has but as I get older they seem to be less and less thank god ... It's a bit wierd when your wife wakes you up and you are fighting with your pillow ............
  5. You go through 5 phases of sleep with REM being the last which tells your brain its time to wake ... I skip the first four and go straight to REM sleep so i can dream wake within 90 minuets of going to bed and my brain is convinced I have slept all night and makes me wide awake with no chance of going back to sleep .........
  6. I have a real shit sleep pattern ... I suffer from insomnia as I fall straight into REM sleep when I go to sleep .... So I go to bed knackered and fall straight to sleep but within an hour or two I have fallen straight into REM sleep have a dream wake up and my brain is convinced that I have slept all night and I then end up wide awake ... It's a fooking nightmare .........
  7. Campbell just outside Swansea brilliant vet who used to race his own greyhounds so very good with running dogs ..............
  8. Yep chicken bones are also fine ... ALL bones or ok to feed raw or boiled its only when they are baked in the oven that they change and can splinter ..........
  9. Half of my ferrets i currently have are from a strain that is over 25 years old and mouse and her sister are just two i have from that strain and never let me down ... These ferrets have to work day in day out for weeks at a time with no day off and have to consistently produce the goods ... I don't only want or keep ferrets that work only underground they have to be able to find track and kill or bolt rabbits above ground in thick cover also ... In today's throw away society ferrets suffer badly as they are so easy to come by ... This means that good working strains are lost and potential goo
  10. Little dogs looking good will be ready for the comming season ...........
  11. I have a thumb nail from hell
  12. The one that was mouthing the hare was a pup surely and if you were bossing your prey and you saw something else like and eagle wanting in on the act you'd maybe crunch it that bit harder...seen that many times (pre ban with two dogs on a fox) not sure it shows breed diversity at all just a young green pup and an older dog concerned it was going to have its quarry knicked.... After watching it again I could see it was a pup .... Still I think it takes some bottle to hang on to your quarry when a huge eagle is swooping down towards you .........
  13. Yhea it did look young and unsure of itself ........
  14. What I found interesting was the diversity between two dogs of the same breed ... You had one that was mouthing the hare and didn't want to grab hold of it then another that hung on tight to a fox whilst an eagle hit it at full force ... Just shows that all breeds have their hard and soft types ............
  15. I heard about this on radio 2 the other day .... Apparently this had been going on for 10 mins before the students started filming her lol .......
  16. The dog was not CHASING livestock she was set to task to move them then recalled back to the warren to carry on ferreting ... a truly versatile canine ..........
  17. You are correct the pictures don't do her justice ... She is a very canny wee bitch and very handy at a variety of quarry .........
  18. Chalky will tell you its his dog I will probably get it wrong .........
  19. No more shaving training eating healthy or hair cutting for me ... I am now a free spirit ..............
  20. If you just punched your missus in the face and it isn't going to bruise you must hit like a fanny .............
  21. He done the right thing but should have said nothing ...........
  22. Take a leaf out of the welsh way of doing it ..........
