  1. Absolutely brilliant picture is that,you may well get even better pics if you persevere as the Stags are now entering the "rut" now we are into October.All the very best
  2. Exactly that mate..ENGLAND coz CR wants nothing to do with the law North of the Border,i know that first hand
  3. some off the fields over here would really test a dog out , my Alfie dog as stayed behind stuff longer than 4 minutes and he is only got 9/16s running dog (greyhound/whippet) in him the rest being bull/wheaton and bedlington .. and thats going over fences and through hedges and after he as done that id expect him to run again soon as he is back ..... dont know what shite dogs you have been watching rain What??? WHAETON AND BULL, and did it catch.... some of the best dogs the country has bred struggle after 4 minutes pal and they are real coursing dogs, not bitza's....watc
  4. This dog's dam is a full Collie and it's sire is a tad over 1/4 so exact fraction's of that i'm not so sure ,anyway's he's in his 1st season,doing things as they should just steady away at the moment,very atheltic,retrieves even over fences,gates has done well when ferreting,obedient and in over 30 years of keeping running dogs this chap has the drive and determination equal of any of them..next season will be the making of this dog...watch this space
  5. to many f*****g pretenders on here mate your assumptions to them sums them up imo? Fairplay young un for making the effort to get out there,the majority will of either been on here or watching Corrie when you were out with your dog,keep on doing what you do,you'll reap the rewards in the end
  6. Took the dog out a night or two back and he picked these up without too much fuss,missed quite a few through him being very keen,once he settles into things i'm sure he'll come up with the goods? Don with a handful of bunnies
  7. Yeah,they were actually bred over there and the bitch is indeed litter sister to Don,the black dog i posted a picture of which i own although long retired now as he's 13 years of age gone June is their sire and the Collie picture i put up is their dam,i have heard that the black bitch is doing exceptionally well,fingers crossed Don doesn't let the team down over this side of the water We'll see
  8. walter mitty would be proud of this , theres more sience fiction but entertaining Just because you ain't done it don't mean it can't be done ..i don't know leec from Adam but i've had dogs of atleast equal capeabilities apart from the foxes scores ..you want to get off the internet and get out and put in the graft with your dogs...they just might surprise you?
  9. Thanks Skycat,compared to many even my other dogs he is rather unsightly lol but as long as he earns his corn that'll do for me,he has been a "type" i've been looking at owning since i had similar several years ago,they too weren't the best of lookers but they could fill the bag and then some ..he's from a long line of Minshaw bred's back to a Border Collie from Ireland who is used daily for working cattle although when he and his littermates were just seven weeks old the dam won the County Wicklow Sheepdog Trials so he is from decent stock...he has one or two little problems what need ironed
  10. Smart pups and smart parents ,good luck with them all matey
  11. Sounds like you guys had a great night in the end..fairplay to you for getting out there and doing it!!
  12. Trust me matey i have PLENTY of experience :kiss:
  13. Great read,looks like you all had a great day .
  14. Well said mate..the top and bottom of it is that rest is as important as the work load given to a dog whether that be when tuning the dog up or when it's fully fit..i've seen many a dog run flat as a pancake when it's supposedly super fit..without a doubt it had gone over the top,getting a dog fit isn't hard,keeping it at it's peak over a longer period of time ie: several months is the true sign of a good "conditioner"
  15. Is it a tandum? Quite tickled me did that remark even though you spelt it wrong
  16. All the best with them mate,should make handy dogs and be a little more than just one trick ponies?
  17. Joe,what was the pup that resembled Blue bred out of and what old Minshaw dog did you use to inseminate your bitch?
  18. Smart pups,good luck in finding them good working homes
  19. Cheers Dodger .the old dog wasn't too bad was he? As for Don becoming another Bulpa well i doubt it but we'll see?
  20. The humble cony will be this "monstrosities" forte :kiss: ..hopefully he'll do for me
  21. Thanks folks,as for his height well i've never measured him lol but at a guess i'd say 24 tts or a wee bit more,he's 17 month old now,has been entered to work and does things as they should be done,he hasn't or doesn't known what a hard shift is yet BUT he'll soon find out .
  22. Just a snap of my young ugly duckling who'll be starting his first season of work imminently,i'm expecting decent things from him (lamping)..fingers crossed anyway! He's a dog consisting of almost 75% Collie make-up,seems to have ample speed,loads of drive in him,very atheletic and quite clever too..here's hoping anyway? Don
