If i remember correctly that was fake as well, maybe an anti-abortion thing? I think Hannah put it up. I don't think it was a fake lab but if I remember right there was a bit of controversy over it. It appears to show a baby actually grabbing the hand of the surgeon as if thanking him. Like you said, the anti abortion mob used it for their cause. I think there was another picture hannah put up that won some sort of international competition, a dieing african kid struggling for for help or something. i think the photographer got a lot of grief for it and killed himself.

The little monster finally grows up a bit
Born Hunter replied to skycat's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Is that the little ball of trouble I saw back in the summer when I came to pick up my kits? Wow he's grown into a looker! Will you let him see anything on the lamp before the end of the season? How did your kits turn out? Mine have come on steadily, havent given them as much work as I would've liked but one of the jills in particular is impressing me! The other is very daft and 'kittish' at times but has worked very well when she settles down. The hob is a bit more timid than the jills but has finally realised what his calling in life is and last weekend I was very happy with him. It could -
My mate has had one for a few months now, every week he shows me something new he has found. Old paper weights, coins, buttons, a musket ball and last night he showed me what we think is the end of a WWII AA shell, but unconfirmed as of yet. Quite interesting but not my thing at all. A lot of history in our area dating back to the Romans so it's not a bad place for it.

Christ Marvin! Where the hell did that come from? I guess some of the syptoms to do with social interaction could be imposed on a young child by poor socialisation etc but f**k knows....

Generally I agree Chart. All I was saying was that if that same dog proved to be exceptional at the rabbit game then the fact it failed at its originally intended purpose would not bother me as it contained all the right stuff for what I wanted. Proven lines are very important but I wouldn't be afraid to take a pup from a breeding where a parent was a failed fox/hare/deer/rabbit dog as long as they were exceptional at the job I wanted the pup for.

We're talking about breeding rabbit dogs. If breeding from dogs that jacked on rabbit I would agree but jacking on fox does'nt imo have any bearing on whether a dog will jack on rabbit, so imo that statement in irrelavent.

How can "the best happen to be a failed fox dog " ?? If it failed at what it ws bred for, but happens to catch rabbits, then it can't be the best ! If I wanted to breed from a very good rabbiting bitch, and rabbits were going to be the pups main quarry; then why on earth use a stud that failed at what it was bred for, when there are any amount of very good rabbit dog studs out there ? It just doesn't make any sense to me ! Cheers. Why..... If it happened to be shit hot at rabbiting and was the best stud you had available then why not? I never said it was likely that the best would b

You really are priveliged to some good hunting jiggy! Nice to hear the big dog done the job for you. I'm sure with a bit of refreshing he'll see the difference between sheep and feral goat. Would the kelpie cross manage one? Had a good do out my self this morning with the dogs, bit of meat for the freezer and successfull vermin control.

The f****r PMed me asking about lamping and touching me inapropriately! I'm not shitting you either. Bless, my first stalker..... I feel two timed now though red!!!!

I hope not as they are out of season....

Christ, it was painfull watching him fannying around. And then he cuts the live buggers antlers off! Good deed but f**k me.
-
Surely you breed the best to the best! If the best happens to a failed fox dog or failed hare dog or whatever is that really important? Of course in an ideal breeding both parents would come from a long line of proven workers all doing the job on rabbits but are you all saying you would turn down the best rabbit dog out there as a sire just because it wasnt bred to be a rabbit dog???? Good breeding aint that common never mind the 'perfect breeding'.

Unfortunately you're right. It would'nt matter if there were 60'000'000 signatures, the government won't risk breaking international law. i know its fecking mad,,, other countrys just feck it ,, look at france,,,, or the china,, did you see them on top gear just blatetnly copying cars,,,, or the worst of the lot south korea Yeh I did watch Top Gear and just had to laugh at the bare faced cheek of the Chinese. Fair play to em though I suppose. Then again, I dare say if China had the same predicament we have here they would just enforce media censorship and shoot the b*****d.

carring badger twins :laugh: of ethnic background with ginger hair and a disability, LOL. All us hunting folk should be ashamed of our selves, I never realised we were so barbaric untill the media told me so.....

Does'nt anyone use it as an excuse for a good old wind up? I would have told her they were badger tails and watched the opinionated clueless cow hit the fecking roof!

I really love daytime mooching with the dogs, hardly ever catch anything but love it! LOL. Nothing quite like watching it all unfold; the terrier is hunting hard on a thick patch and the lurcher is tuned right into it all and then BANG the chase is on! The dogs really tune into their handler as well with this type of hunting, they have to, man, lurcher and terrier are equally essential members of the team. It's the nearest thing the average man can get to Fell hunting. Just hunting in it's purest. I only wish I had the time and land to be out 3 or 4 mornings a week, I doubt the lamp wo

I think what you call common sense thinking Gnash is just the basic human survival instinct to protect those of your own and f**k others not of your own. Would you agree? I don't think many people would knock that thinking at all, it's such a natural basic instinct that is essential in a world where natural selection has ruled since the beginning of time. The trouble is we all define 'our own kind' differently. From your posts I get the impression your definition is white British? That's fair enough and in an idealistic world that would be mine to. Unfortunately though that simple but defi

Very true, they hand licenses out to anyone that stumps up the cash these days. I know some lads that think it makes them some sort of plastic policeman flashing it about to doorstaff when they get in bother in a club themselves. Makes me cringe listneing to em. When money was hard just after uni and I took a 'security steward' job for a short while the majority of licensed lads were gutless fannys with no bollocks and a few others took their role abit too seriously. Not knocking the real deal door staff but having a license doesn't mean shit to anyone imo.

I wonder how many truly feral cats there are?..........see in the wilder parts of england and scotland then you can make a fairly safe assumption that a cat is feral, but in areas close to villages and towns I would personally ere on the side of caution as I would hate to think of killing someones pet. All the ferals I have shot have been farm cats that have been allowed to breed out of control. Often mixed with strayed cats from other farms and quite possibly strayed pets that have joined the farm ferals. I don't think there is any definite rule. It's just a case of judging the sit

The last act of a desperate man. By the sound of it his life was crumbling around him and the only thing he had left that made him feel good was his shooting. He feared he was going to loose this and lashed out violently. It's a sad story indeed.

The system will be an opt out system Scot, so no one will be 'forced' into anything.

Chop me up and feed me to the wolves at the zoo for all I care. A corpse is a corpse. I personally feel it very important to let my redundant body be used to save lives or further scientific research. As for the race debate, it's not an issue for me. Fortunately I'm not the only one with that view, otherwise there would be a lot of sick people condemned to death.......... of white British and ethnic origin.

Some right heartless cowards on this site. Look at the big men knocking a 17 year old straight after her dog's been killed..... Should I really expect any more from this site? I can take people ruining threads with bullshit and I can deal with the dick measuring contests but what some have said on this thread is pretty f*****g sickening.
