  1. Groovy Stan was a decent Greyhound,made finals of both Irish and Scottish Derby ,would be 15 now if still alive ,but I don't think he is . He sired about 40 pups but to be honest he never sired anything any good ,if that price of 1200 isn't a misprint,the pup I have in my yard whose sire was an open race winner and whose grandsire won the Scottish Derby is worth 5000!!!!
  2. Mate of mine many years ago had the 3/4 collie off him ,,talk about too clever ,,,if it didn't think he could catch it he stood and watched it run off??
  3. I agree with what you say ,we are pissing in the wind trying to keep our way of life going ,you have to go about your business discreetly and have a little smug grin occasionally,,,, but trust me Barrie is no anti ,he's fought to keep terrier work going for years ,and he must be in the top 5 terriermen this country has seen ,so cut him some slack .
  4. Lovely looker,broken coated ,leggy ,dog ,just started marking and putting rabbits up out cover ,lad has been out of the game 20 years and went back to what he had before,, hope it works out for him .
  5. Mate of mine had one off him about 6month ago ,cost £350 ,nice looking dog to be fair but in my experience at that price you are really taking a chance on one off his pups ,seen one or two decent ones but more very average ones .
  6. Very well bred ,,,better value than a Pug at £1000 ??
  7. I don't go to many shows nowadays but this one is frequented by working dogs with, let's say ,,,,,interesting owners ,,,,,lol ,,,,,always a good ,entertaining afternoon.
  8. Nearly 12 months,,,,bull grey X saluki Collie grey
  9. The Merle was the mother to his bitch who he put the bull X over ,that bitch is a decent dog ,takes a lot of rabbits and hares ,I have a pup out that litter , showing good promise,I have been in the game long enough to have seen plenty of similar lads but I knew the bitch was doing good bags on the lamp ,to be fair he didn't make money on them ,gifted a couple and covered the cost of jabs on the others ,I think we have all bought in rubbish when we actually have better in the kennel to start with,best to be your own man in the lurcher world .lol
  10. I'll get my coat and piss off then ,,had my first greyhound 35 years ago but what do I know.
  11. Robert Meek is good ,he travels all over to kennels ,tracks or will meet on services, his number is on the net I would imagine .
  12. Letters warned me to stay off land ,which I didn't as public paths through it and no quarry on it anyway ,,,,motorway cops were sound ,told me why the car was flagged ,and who by ,and that after 28 days Staffordshire police should remove it ,,,,but probably won't !!!! I phoned rural police and told them what I had been told ,they went mental ,wanted motorway cops details etc ,,of course I couldn't remember them ?
  13. Spot on Ray ,you are made to feel a lower form of life just for owning a lurcher ,a couple of years go I was with the girlfriend on a public footpath, with dogs on leads and a member of the public reported me to rural police as they thought a crime was about to take place!!! This resulted in letters off police ,car was flagged and was pulled on M6 with my Dad and son in car on way home from a rugby match !! Since the ban the media have misinformed the public about hunting and this has led to a lurcher owner becoming one step below a sex offender!!!!
  14. Bitch looks well ,nice shape to her ,,,,pleased with mine ,nice temperament, easy to work with.
  15. Nice one ,,,,I shall get the bitch out before the New Year .
  16. Sister to lurcherlads pup ,4month ,18tts ,smart easy going bitch she is .
  17. Garlic flushes toxins out of the bloodstream,the toxins are created during excersice should garlic should be given after excersice,,,I remember some top pigeon fanciers using it after visiting Belgium fanciers in the late 70s ,,,,also used honey ,brewers yeast too.
  18. Yes will do, ,,,,she's settled in well,,,, very bright, alert pup ?
  19. Cheers Dan çollecting Saturday
