well rocky2, i'd enter him with another dog dog for first one or two till he gets used to handling foxes. then see how he fairs single handed, all the best, y.i.s, sionnach
there glenn of imaal terriers
you have them in good order ray, you should come down with foxhunter next season to us for a bit of hunting, y.i.s ,sionnach
very good dog show only the rain lst year and bad judging
there was no rain there last year. and each judge has his own decision just because its not your choice do not make it a bad one, very well attended last year.y.i.s, sionnach
one big difference that ye also must rember is that unlike england where there's big shooting estates that are keepered but in eire there's few. most of the land is controlled by gunclubs who are quite happy to have foxes controlled all winter as its mostly rough shooting here. then again if some of the summer digging lads dogs meet anything bigger then a cub they wouldn't stay in a hole very long imo. that excludes lads who are digging on keepered estates. y.i.s, sionnach
sound for that foxhunter, a real bit of craftmansship there. have a lovely finch picked out for it. a true sportsman and a man of his word :notworthy: . y.i.s , sionnach
what a prick the man explained his lad was sick and ye shower of wankers want him to be worried about a compettition that was suppose to be for a bit of craic in the first place
maybe if people didn't spend as much time on the net talking about hunting etc and got out there and actually did a bit of hunting an got things out of the way this shite wouldn't of happened, y.i.s , sionnach
well lads, to start off with hope johns young lad will be ok and make a full an good recovery. but for your comment about green eyed monster bit its a load of bollox john. ye where supposed to run on the tuesday the 10th of feb its now the 19th of march nearly six weeks later. my season like most others ends on the paddy's day. this comp has ran on too long at this stage. the lads in england could run off a 32 dog stake in the same time as our 12 dog stake. this should of been finished in dec or jan. as for real sportsmanship i can only say i had the pleasure of hunting with real countrymen d
