French Bulldog i think mate,see what one of them can do ? but for now Ruby is still putting in the miles on the mountains with no issues so be no hurry to replace her yet ?
-
Definitely getting a visit Vin i promise!!
-
Aye she's still with my lad,she's made a nice looking thing,she can run a bit,more fire in her belly than Mario had too,she will fire into teeth where he wouldn't & loves a bit of hoof too as did Mario to be fair,probably have her mated in the not too distance future with my friends dog & keep a pup back out of them so will have two young dogs to run & retire the rest of the squad ?

Yeah the boys are doing way more than their old fella these days that's for sure D ,keen as mustard they are,I can vaguely recall having the same enthusiasm lol

Having not been on the forum since dinosaurs last walked the earth i thought I'd drop by & shout hello ☺ ..hope everyone is doing ok,the running dogs are all healthy & prepared for their winter campaigns,fingers crossed you all have enough game on the ground to keep your dog's active over the forthcoming months..I've still got Boots who will be 6 years old in a fortnight but he unfortunately suffered a horrendous injury which seen him unable to put his leg on the ground for 9 months which put a damper on last season but he's looking grand just now,I'm pretty certain he will breakdown

A fella can do as much homework as he likes when it comes to choosing a pup,that don't guarantee anything..yeah you may sleep easier for 14 months knowing it's bred out of the best of the best but until you let go of that slip you just don't know what you have in your kennel..that skip in your step & that cocoon like bubble you've been in all those months can be burst in seconds..life in general very rarely runs smoothly & owning a running dog makes the journey even more of a bumpy ride..merry xmas folks ?

Was that Tina bitch directly out of Lucky the Dark Destroyer? She could run abit from what I remember seeing on dvd?

He's not to unlike my fella..

Great bit of sport & fingers crossed there's a few on the ground when you return for a night time foray ??

Brilliant..well done fella

Like Chris above,I'm honest about my dogs & being around running dogs for many years you know from pretty early on in a dogs career if it's going to make the grade,if you have a gut feeling that something just isn't right in regards to a dogs work ethic you can bet your bottom dollar in time when you look back your were right on the money with that gut feeling..you can choose to work to the dogs strengths because it will have some or you can move on & start again with another young gun,yes of course breeding helps but that doesn't guarantee success,it tips the odds in your favour but n

I have one out of a coursing dog X lurcher & a coursing dog X coursing dog,the latter is shite

Not the greatest but then again they don't hang around to have their pics taken..Sand Martin,Swift & Swallow

I'm with Katchum,a coursing dog X lurcher offers far more in general to most folk than a purpose bred one trick pony..I'd prefer to own a one minute gung ho all or nothing attacker rather than see a five minute slog to run one into submission although each has its gains on different types of land which is quite obvious I'd of thought..not all dogs make the grade no matter how well bred they are & have been fed/entered to work,as for catching in the snow I'd rather do that than run them in July/August stubble bashing that's for sure..

Part & parcel of owning a working dog as I'm sure you know,it's a ballache when the mutts are sidelined with injuries especially in the hunting season..fingers crossed for a swift recovery for both pooches
-
I've had a couple of days out with Boots & a day with Mario,i class that as retired or maybe to most on here its classed as a full time hunter? I've given up,my lad does a bit with them,I'm done with the game..best decision I've EVER made!
