I've seen plenty of dogs jack Giro including Minshaws..i owned one called Red that Chris has..it had a mind of it's own lol but also lots of other types too even the sister to your own bitch was a total jacker that i tried to re-home after the lad who owned her died...it can and does happen in all types of lurchers..having raced greyhounds for many years too i've even seen and owned the odd one lol that refused to run so again a no good jacker...if a greyhound won't chase then believe you me there's every chance that now and again there will be a lurcher that will do the same no matter how it'

I would consider anything from working stock that impressed me in the feild.. Seen some footage of coursing in soviet union.. I also like the look of them Tazi's and slougis (spelling).. I would not take a punt on a first cross but would take secound cross from proven parents.. I Remember in CMW few years back labradoole x grey... If they had turned out world beaters I would of liked to see one..

What dog fighting got to do with this thread??? It dose not interest me, why??? -
I Wont hold my breath on any count.. It was a free vote that got as here was it not?? I would actually find out if your local Torie MPs would even support this.... Half of them are not the pro hunt ferterinty we would be led to belive.. I dont have perticually strong veiws, where just mushrooms left in the dark and get fed shit lol.
-
Why do you belive its suicidal?? And what would have to change for the vote to be more in our favour?? The time will never be right the Hunting act will always envoke stong opiions on both sides..... JMHO
-
I recently wrote to my local MP, regarding repealing the hunting ban and the purposed free vote that was in their manifesto… I was not given a firm answer to when this would take place but the Tories claim this will take place. Overview off of content ; “There are many greater priorities facing the government at the moment, but the Coalition Government plan to honour that commitment by putting forward a motion on the issues at an appropriate time”. “If it’s in favour of the of an repeal, the Government will introduce a Repeal Bill in both house of Parliament in due course”.

Thats a bit strong " A Retard".... Anti bark collars work great. Lads mabie received a letter of complaint from council, these collars will compelety stop the problem.. Least the lads willing to cure the problem and not pass it on... Give him a chance he mabie has tried several other methods and failed.. You would be better with anti bark rather than remote, they are cheaper and will work when your not at home.. Friend has used one with great results.

Its bad crack.. I know when I first came on forums folk would just give away surrplus equipment, I guess charity begins and home and folk cant just give exspensive goods away for nothing but seems to be a rise of folk ripping other folk off. Dont send cash use paypal and once bitten fella... I would of learnt from the first time.. Hope the man see,s this thread and dose the right thing..

Just walk him, let him have free running over the summer and show him the lamp in september.. You will see the difference in a september rabbit in grass a foot high compared to a wise febuary rabbit on grass like a bowling green. I would just wait fella no rush what so ever, you may also want to get a flying start to the season and go mid summer if thats the case make sure the grounds soft enough, its like concreat round my way now. You dont want a knocked toe and your young un will loose the best bit of the season and the easy runs.. Never used a lure they will have some benifits but

Hope the dog comes good, If its having a few moist turds mabie change the diet ?? More raw meat and bone easier to clean. I have fed varoius mixtures of different meats, carcases with addtional biscuit found my dog had the best shit on raw beef mixed 70/30 with cooked rice. Found when feeding bones the dogs done shits like marbles however they noramally hold them in the run over night but with loads of bone they shat but it is easy to clean. Had a dog cage bound for long periods felt like slippin it a load of blues to keep the fecker calm, must be hard when its a young dog all reve

I cant belive the other copper was happy to watch his pal getten his arm chewed off and ran off,came back for closer look and stood on the wall.. I am no hero but sure I could of attempted to set about the dog with a asp when its jaws where frimly clamped of the other boy... Chicken shit. Could of been my dog if folk burst into my home shouting and screaming.. I dont condone dangerous dogs however belive you cant brake someones door in and expect the dog to greet you with a waggy tail and a lick.. f*****g media dramtising "the blood spread across 30 yards" the bulk of thats the

Should be a moocher,net dog,coursing dog and lamp dog taking all edible game in my eyes... Jack of all trades master of none, meaning when I said "coursing" I mean can catch daytime hares thats not 5/5 fen match dog.. Most folk Say all rounder, folk will have all rounders and never know it..

Been watching this thread and believe some folk are not only kennel blind but believe a name is everything..... Every line will start somewhere but where is it now and where is it going??? Has it developed and improved??? Has it maintained the initial attributes that where so desired?? Is it completely diluted?? I would be looking for the best dog be it a first cross, a lurcher lurcher breeding or even a dog from unknown parents if it was truly cutting the mustard I would take a line off a poodle cross.. Poor dogs get credit because they are from a great line, dogs that y

Still lads on Moochers with the dogs they just dont post....

Typp Ratcher has good reputation... Collie john made some good posts about his dogs, dont think he is on line now.. Loads of collie dogs. Folk just dont shout it from the roof tops after all their "only rabbit dogs" ha ha Chipper Smith has some nice collie blooded dogs.. Had the pleasure to see "nell" in her prime. He coulkd trace his dogs back 35 odd years.

Wonder where this will go.......

Naa dont get fat fella.. I stopped smoking and packed 3 stone on. I was struggling with nicotine withdrawls and would just eat shit on mass. I could not stop eating and was going to start smoking again just to get back in shape lol.. Just do more exercise, eat loads of food but reduce the fat and carbs.. Curcuits are good or boxing drills.. Drink plenty water fella.. I have been off the fags about a year now. Smoking definetly effects your metabolisim, I was rake thin when I smoked and ate anything I wanted.. Still exercised then and was fairly fit but I am fitter now.
