    Cheers Kiz, Will order the book then!! Its a hell of a lot cheaper than the BARF book but also has better rating than it, i suppose just because the BARF book is more expensive dont mean its better. Thanks for the links i like the one with the receipe section where it says on most take food/lungs/head/fish etc and hand it to your dog, lol! Cheers for that mate, does the book have much info about feeding pups? picking my 8wk old up in about a wk. Will start aproaching my local butchers then, if i can get enough regular meat might have a look in to getting my cats on the diet also. Neil

    Hello, Im picking up a new pup soon and have been looking in to the BARF diet, Is this book any good and does it include enough information for feeding pups? Its a hell of a lot cheaper and actually has better reviews than the barf diet by Ian Billinghurst. Just wondering if any one had any views on this book?? Any help appretiated. Also can any one reccomend any good books on dog training? Getting collie/grey/whippet will be just used for rabbits but happy to get a good book on just the basics to start with then maybe one for hunting later. What ever is best. Cheers Neil

    Its not important bud just my preferance, and every one has favorite cross/breed, weather its for looks or attitude or how good they work, there all equally valid points. My dogs gonna be firstly a well loved family pet, as thats what comes first to me, then a worker, so everyone needs to be happy, (even if that involves ) I do like pure whippets though.

    Hello, Im looking about at the moment to get my first lurcher and obviously i want to be capable of being able to take the best of care for her as possible, i will be insuring her as i have found it to be a life saver in the past, i would prefer to treat minor wounds myself if it well in my capability, stapaling, like ya say i should be shown, would a vet frown on me if i asked them to show me? or would i be best to find some one locally to show me, also is there any good books for more minor injurys and health care for dogs? Cheers Neil sorry alex didnt mean to poach ya thread, hope it he

    I got chickens and cats mate, Do the local cat actually terrorise ya chucks? In my experiance chickens are perfectly capable of taking care of them selfs with cats, cats might try it once but they will soon learn, unless there bantams? I do have an indian game cockeral now but the hens had no prob seeing off any cats before he turned up. I learnt the other day one of our neighbours had said to our other neighbour that were friends with they think our cats are underweight, our cats are perfect weight, one of them goes the vet about once a month (thank f**k for pet insurance!!!) for an on going

    I dont know the reason you have been kicked off, and, no offence ment, for all i know you might deserve it. And i am sure the mods had there reasons, But i think asking for a reason for this is a very resonable request. Manners dont cost a thing even if you are chucking someone off.

    Im new to lurcher and thought i would need summat with a bit more sight hound in but after talking to a few people who know there stuff it seems i was wrong, Are 1stx beddy good with kids would ya say?

    He certainly seems to know his stuff, didnt realise he had a book, so its worth getting then, will have a look about for it. Cheers Neil A lot of the cases though are just common sense, they walk them 2/3 times a week and about being the pack leader, but he knows some good stuff

    Had a mate who dog was called 'Derek' i really liked the name and my cockeral is called Derek now, really suits him. I had a dog called Newt When i lived in forest gate east london knew someone with a dog calle 'adolf hitler' adolf for short, the woman got given the dog just as long as she kept the name, sick joke i think, if you have ever been to forest gate you will know that name wont go down too well there. Also known, sketchy, trouble, loakey
