Some great post's been added since I was last here,top job folks..I've been away up Scotland in our old motorhome & I'll reply to what's been asked later on today,thanks everyone it's very much appreciated ..here's the 'pup' from a couple of days ago,she will be 12 months old in the very near future..

I don't think there's any one particular type that is guaranteed to be successful working the high ground. Every dog is different. Were the laws reverted back to before 2004 & hunting deer with dog's legal one cross that I would personally be intrigued to try would be a Saluki/Grey x Deerhound/Grey or at least with a mixture of that blood. I'm not sure how one would do but it's a type I'd of loved to have worked on the mountains. It's not just running style that's needed as you also need a dog with plenty of fire in its belly for what resides up there inevitably isn't chicken fodder. I've

I must admit since I was first introduced to lamping back in 1977 & from therefore on done lot's of hunting with dog's,lurchers & terrier's alike. Lamping being my longest involvement with running dog's & having also had a number of year's coursing I have to admit even regarding the hard work very often involved in getting to many of the place those critter's call home during the winter,on the highest of mountains,in remote glens etc where & when the weather can be borderline life threatening at the best of times,no mobile phone coverage should something untoward happen to you,

Turmeric tablets are cheap enough on Amazon & instead of the cod liver oil I'd probably go for the Red Krill Oil matey..another very effective tablet to chuck in the dog's dinner daily is one Glucosamine tablet, Turmeric & Red Krill Oil have many proven health benefits including helping with stiff joints/arthritis & Glucosamine is also excellent in regards to helping relieve stiffness/soreness in joint's..

Very best of luck with the pup matey

Don around 4 year's old when he was as fit as a butcher's dog when we were regularly amassing good hauls of bunnies out lamping with Tomo & his pooches Tara & or Don's half sister Venus,great time's,great memories & great dog's too..
