Yep, I hear you mate, I have done plenty of failing the dog myself. Thats a very sensible, honest reply mate and imho there are not enough lads with that type of honesty left in the dog job and that’s why there is so much sub standard breeding going on.

I have never owned anything I consider top notch and I no longer own any dogs other than a pet for my boy and a farm collie mate. My mistake was seeing a couple of really good dogs in their glory and knowing what that looks like, after that everything was shit. I was never one to make excuses for my dogs, even my last proper dog was my mate and I really liked the dog but he wasn’t good enough in lots of ways I brought him here and the poor b*****d had nothing to go at and it was driving him mad so he now has a nice spot up the back. As I said, I couldn’t own anything I’d wan

Don’t tell lies, you’d want the absolute liability and the killer is, you always compare, you can’t help yourself......you know that as well as I do brother

I think you misunderstand mate as is easy to do in the written word. Im not slagging lads who just enjoy their dog, that’s what it’s all about. Im sure Stiff isn’t either, in fact I know he isn’t. But what you have to understand is that personally I would always know and I wouldn’t feel happy not being able to do what I personally want to do. Thats no reflection or slight of anyone else, it’s just a personal thing. It gets sickening after a while putting articles in the ground.....it’s f***ing horrible in fact.

As you know mate, he was home 6 months of the year and that dog went out every single night of those 6 months. Did he have his deerhound Sal with him when you judged that show ? Sal was a lovely bitch

It’s strange chatting about dogs and a little sad actually because I will never be able to own a dog I’d want again. My circumstances dictate that it’s just no longer possible, I have livestock, not enough work for it, the topography of the land provides no test and in fact would sicken an animal and there isn’t enough tackle to point it at in any case. A very odd sensation actually.

The dog just killed whatever it was slipped on. You missed out mate, Mik is a top countryman with a deep knowledge of fish, fur and feather.....it’s just interesting being in his company and the amount of gear he can put in front of a dog, rod or gun is mind blowing ?
-
That dog saw graft every night of the week mate ?

If it took 2 adult bull Xs to kill a fox cub I’d shoot the pair of them !
-
Yes mate, but in fairness even Tigger was limited in his experience of certain things but was absolutely without equal to anything I ever personally witnessed at the things he did do. Same for the dog Paddy.
-
I have seen two (What I consider) good dogs and never owned any (other than a little terrier who’s heart was in the wrong size body) One was a dog called Paddy, a Wheaton greyhound and one was a dog called Tigger. I have travelled widely but been very selective about who with so I can’t claim any experience whatsoever of what dogs are out there mate.....there could be thousands of outstanding dogs for all I know, but I doubt it. But if it’s breeding stock we are talking about then something with a sickening level of barbarity and bottle would be the foundation to go to imho, no

Limerick my arse......we have schools in England with higher knife crime figures ! Hows that for a one up ! Lol Makes you proud to be English I tell ya !

Sandy & Charts.....lads, for two highly intelligent chaps who I always take time to read you don’t half sound stupid ! It’s been Labour or Tory since I don’t know when ?.....certainly for 70 years or more and the country is in the state it’s in.....I really need to understand how either is ever better “this time” ? If you voted for me once every 5 years and I then came round every week and punched you in the face, at what point would you stop voting for me ?
-
Newsflash.....there is already ginger in your curry powder most likely ! Lol
-
I totally agree with that brother (as you already know)......I have come to the conclusion that the dog worth having you can’t have in most situations. Imho not enough people are trying to break dogs and so not enough dogs are getting bred from that ever got pushed to limits.
-
You’d trip over and blow your toes off !
-
The “Hogs, Dogs & Quads” DVDs are decent mate, I could get round a bit of that. They are taking like a dozen pigs a morning and stuff running the dogs off the back of quad bikes, it’s mega like ?
-
I think anyone who has worked closely with pigs will have respect for what those pig dogs do, even a 90lb bull/Arab will get tossed about like cotton wool by a pig if it takes a mind to it.
-
Likewise mate ?

Zzzzzzz......zzzzzzz.......zzzzzzz.....zzzzzz

The most impressive and awe inspiring thing I have heard was by your neck of the woods actually mate, a scientist on the telly had been studying your stretch of the coast line up to Donegal or something. Anyway she was stood at the top of a cliff by this dirty great rock that was as big as a 3 bed semi, she said it weighed about 50 tons or something and she said: ”This used to be down there on the beach when I first started coming here and studying and an Atlantic storm threw it up to the top of this cliff !!” That just blew my mind that did mate

They’d come out of it looking exactly the way they told the media they want to look and nobody would give a flying shit about you or your poor old mum mate

Don’t know why we are asking Born, it was the likes of him invented the atomic bomb !.......the mans literally a raving lunatic ! Lol ? ? ?

Do what is sensible to do......but keep one very close eye on the government while you are doing it You can’t take a firm position in a developing situation, you have to develop with it.

I’d say Rick is a better cook ?
