i feel physically sick Wilf. we all know the only decent thing to do now would be to sent them out here (paying is your punishment) ill pick them up after quarantine and give them a good life free from cruelty and nasty words. lets all try to forget and put behind us what this man has done...

well done lads sounds like a good nights hunting even if the bunnies were abit thin on the ground.

is there anything a bullx will do in the uk that a deer/grey couldnt? no. they do it differently, a deer/grey will tend to have more finesse and brains about how it catches but at the same time does it very well. i dont think the chavs like this sort of breeding because they dont look huge and musclebound and dont get scarred up quick. out here both are used, the bullx comes into its own hunting bigger prey ie roos but then we have the roohounds which do it just as well but different. this said i would rather have a bullx holding a big pig on its own than a deer/grey simply because a good one

What do you reckon........Rottweiler x Lurcher
lampinglurcher replied to Miss Tarka's topic in General Talk
interesting idea if bred from the right stock then who knows... i was working a rottie yesterday at work a brute of a dog about 2 years old and just staying still with him on the lead attacking a sleeve was a challenge! i personally think a first cross would be too big and heavy to regularly catch smaller quarry, but out here they would probs fair quite well on pigs. just as a side note there is nothing lacking in the "drive" department with a working lines rottie. -
you'll be alright fella dont let it play on your mind to much or you might not look left and right.. and then BAM! you get hit by a bulldozer and flattened! in all seriousness it was probs a hallucination i get em especially if im tired.

UPDATE: been hired full time by the centre working malinois' today crackin on with the other breeds this week got a few celebs dogs in right now actually, lol they aint the best dogs but... gettin a malinois pup later this week!!!
-
haha i bet thats why they wanted him so quick lol haha lol i aint even been asked to do that yet! doubt ill be doing it as the dogs already are soft as fresh poo around me!!!
-
thanks for the replies lads. finished my first day, had a cracker was working with the young (under 12 months) dogs mostly and a few clients dogs. theres room for 200+ there but at the moment i think theres around . some stunning dogs though, a couple of the rotties hit the agitator or guy in the padded suit with massive force it was great to see. another bonus - a bloke there has invited me pigging with him on the weekend so cant wait for that! simoman ~ thankyou mate yeah ill give you a shout if (when) i get stuck!! atb lads matt
-
haha lol, better than being asked to "work" in a room with thick padded walls though ay!!
-
all the best from me if you decide to, ive always wondered about doing it with my retriever but as has been mention it would have abit too much nose as a half cross to be a great lamper, but as a mooching, ferreting gundog thing im sure it would be fantastic.

fair one.. on the shoots i pickup at theres a couple that try both and end up looking like fools. if your dog can do it thats great but alot of dogs struggle to know when to stay at heel to be set out and when to fan out themselves.
