  1. Seems to me saluki owners make excuses for there dogs(and why not),You cannot have one if you have to work becouse it has to be with you if you put it in a kennel it wont come back When it dosnt come back or it runs of,Its becouse its so clever And knows more than you or other dogs.Im yet to own a lurcher that didnt remember were they had killed or found quarry,just becouse they didnt piss of to it,every time means there not super intelligent. Plenty of ferreting dogs predict were rabbits are going to bolt.One thing for sure there not for me any ways.Just some genral observations so dont
  2. they might slip into a hole though,i think there fantastic dogs at what they do and am not knocking them at all but i wonder how many he's missed with them slipping into a hole when maybe a more committed dog would of caught them?as i say a great film to watch and i enjoyed watching the pup from starting out to being the finished article on the last dvd,he would be a good lad to follow if ya were into ya terriers i would think They mark like they get the odd reward to me anyways.
  3. I LOVE A BUSY BURY LIKE THAT,THE EXCITMENTS WORTH MISSING A FEW.
  4. Last couple of years been getting rabbits with young since xmas.To give up then would make a short season.I will give up ferreting when little young rabbits start bolting.But will lamp were the rabbits can take it till march.Normally glad of the rest then.
  5. Dogs do there job and do it well.They dont need to grab a fox any were they have all the time in the world,There not about to slip in a hedge.
  6. I Cannot spell it but there somthing called a inter digetcist or somthing like that, if its this they tend to come up every time a dog works heavy cover.
  7. Its all part of hunting socially when the shooting news was popular what page did you go to first,The letters page to see all the legends of the time acting like children slagging one another of.Go out with a hound pack and there will be a 20 lads who dont know the front of a hound from the back trying to tell you the huntsmans drawing the wrong cover,or the whips standing in the wrong place.This dream of every one getting on is a dream.Lads ignoring my posts because ive bruised there inflated egos by questioning them doesn't make me sad,It makes me laugh that there so precious.
  8. Of course single dogs would have faired better, and more rabbits would have been caught. I cannot understand, why YOU cannot understand, that was not what the day was about...how many times, in how many ways do i have to explain Don't equate not agreeing with not understanding, I understand it was a social occasion rather than a serious hunting trip ( or rather hoped it was the case) but my views are my opinion, that it's shoddy. Now if you only want nice remarks from your friends why not say so at the beginning of your posts, otherwise expect positive and negative responses. You and
  9. You defiantly need to see it for your self,dont trust them,to tell you its not yours.
  10. I have my ferret box painted a very bright blue put it in the hedge to stop rabbits running along the hedge.
  11. I took my Pup out on a pretty long walk last weekend and she couldn't sit still when I got back for about 2 hours. Moving from one place to the next and whining. I figured it was cramp but didn't know how to help her... Tomatoes you say... unless she had been around stingers,brambles ect
  12. I didnt have ferrets around for a few years there,i was just lamping and mooching,but the ferreting realy makes a team of you and your dog.
  13. Ha especially if they live in run around like made things rubbing there selves on the misses new carpet
  14. Had a couple of hours free this morning,and not being under any pressure for rabbits decided to take the young pup,and see if i could teach him a bit. . .
  15. So why can i not breed my 8 year old lurcher,even though shes still able to do a days or nights work??
  16. Winning best under 26" at 2 hunt shows this summer
  17. OK fair play flick, when do you think the cut off should be for breeding a bitch for the first time? Just for future reference and to help other members. FTB I'd say there is no hard and fast 'cut off'. Each man should know their own bitch....if she's super fit, having regular seasons and wil get the best of care, then obviously, the risks are minimal. However, if you're not sure about the age of the bitch ("at least 8" ) and she's not having regular seasons and is not in the very best of health, the cut of point would be a lot earlier. This is just my opinion. For me, pers
  18. OK fair play flick, when do you think the cut off should be for breeding a bitch for the first time? Just for future reference and to help other members. FTB I would like to know this to,I have a bitch i would like to breed of she would be 8 having her first and last litter.Im going to take some convicing to before i let her line die out.
