My dad once owned a 3/4 grey 1/4 collie not of Hancock breeding just worker to worker she was a fair old bitch by all accounts many lads witnessed her catch decent bags of rabbits day and night she took hare in the day when he used to go coursing at 6mile bottom

Alas the place i hunt dont produce as many rabbits as they used to infact some none at all therefore 1 must adjust accordingly and the dogs I used to run are obsolete

I always think speeds no good with out gameness and drive alot of dogs havent got the strike either they've bat things up and down a field bending etc and they just seem to make meals of things no good where I go

Nigga whaaaaa

Old boy I knew years ago bred and showed some of the best ebts in the country he told me years ago tripes 1 of the best meats to feed your dogs as it does put fat round the kidneys dunno how true this but Ive fed tripe for years at the moment mine are on a strict diet of veno

Ibknow a few lads who worked at his farm and had dogs from him i had a decent bitch bred down from a big merle dog my mate had called moon big rough dog his dad was beardie grey put to a laguna whippet good foxing dogs another lad I know had a 3/4 grey 1/4 collie dog big dog brindle had floppy ears was a slow starter but meant to of been a decent dog on the deer in the end

Not sure properly but think he's 3/4 grey 1/4 bull back to a saluki grey type not 100% though

I went out yesterday afternoon for a mooch with 2 lurchers and spaniels my rough bitch ended up cutting leg blood pumping out of it didn't think it was that bad till I had a good look had to carry her back half way getting back to car nightmare lucky by the time I'd reached car bleeding had steadied up abit I patched her up when I got home anything that happens to me and the dogs historically always been a Sunday few vets have made a few quid out if me due to 1 thing or another if I can sort it my self they ain't going the vets especially on a Sunday she was OK though ate lastnight up this mor

Well let me tell yah them dog had some minerals 1st time we dug that dog he died near enough shallow earth ash pit not ideal but I thought be easy dig for us was easy but dog being a big boy bumping round earths on ash wasn't best idea

This dog was bred off a good dog from up the north there were a few good dogs in that litter few never saw old bones they were hard dogs though you didn't need to worry about getting them in it was the holding back that was the problem
