  1. Groovy Stan

    in Lurchers & Running Dogs

    Posted

    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!!!!

    In the mid 90s, I bought a 3rd hand first cross bitch under a year old for 30 quid. Got the receipt of the original buyer later, he had paid 150.Bitch was out of Rufus, never had much chase about her, 'stalked' threw to the collie in looks and in general. Turned snappy with kids, that was that.

    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??

    Who says I'm doing nothing.the antis have took nothing from me and never will. As for saving my conscience I don't have one where .antis or gov. Are conserned  I will do as I please ,you admire the antis if ya want, for all I know ya could be one ,I've never heard of ya on here before, I've fought for things I believed in and got nowhere against the gov. THEY SHUT THE f***ing PITS didn't they . what chance do we have

    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 .

    Is this the same Lurcherlad that bred the merle bitch to a black bull x last year? Well if it is I said years ago he was a peddling little prick who is full of shit, he had them run over, injured, broke up wae his girl and had to rehome dogs, all the pishy excuses under the sun, he's a f***ing disgrace to the genuine dog lads more dogs than Battersea wouldn't encourage him to keep pet mice, sorry for the rant lads but the dogs the boy goes through boils my piss, one of the reasons there's so much shit being bred

    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

    What did the police have to say when they pulled you over and what did the letters say out of interest. 

    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 ?

    we done all that before, in London  i went on ever march , was 1000's there  the Ban still happened .Even if Labour got back in, god forbid  , all what would happen they put more restrictions  on the fox hunting ( horse back)  but the old running dog  what ever the x , or the so called new dog lol , they make it hard to own a lurcher , more so if it was smooth coated with bit of size to it, all this is just another nail in the coffin for people  that like to  own/work  a running dog .We really are minority regards hunting with dogs, before the ban alot of people joe public  werent that bothered  more important things to worry about  no jobs, lack of money, NHS  going down pan etc, hunting was well down in there mind. But since the ban the public  who werent that bothered  before , will be now .  it over and finished now, just go out   watch your back , day/night  , and you deff got to keep lookin over your shoulder , you did 100 years ago , and deff have now FACT.

    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!!!!

    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.
