  1. You are joking....tinned dog food???? Milk and bread??? You must be on a wind-up... as ridiculous as that sounds when I first got into ferrets many moons ago everyone I knew who had ferrets used to feed them bread and milk! I think it was just something that got passed down, it was almost like the standard thing to feed ferrets, bizarre when you think about it because it actually contains virtually none of the nutrients that they need and lactose which doesn't agree with them.......but strangely, none of them seemed to suffer for it, either condition, lifespan, energy levels, they seemed
  2. Think you'll find a few lads on WBF work KC above and below depends who you get them off and who you speak to. why would anyone intentionally get KC stock for working when there is working stock around? especially from a breed that has been mutated beyond recognition by KC breeders?? I don't get it......it'd be like deliberately massively stacking the odds against you having a decent worker for no reason other than to try and prove a point. I'm far from an expert on the breed, but looking at the state of every show bedlington I've ever seen I'd be amazed if there's a single one in t
  3. for those that bush with beddies, or any terriers for that matter.....how do you get on when the terrier has flushed a rabbit and the lurcher has caught it? don't you end up with a tug of war? or a lurcher wanting to give the terrier a good hiding for trying to take the rabbit off it? a spaniel would be train to flush but not catch, but could you realistically do that with a terrier? from what I can gather most bushing terriers catch their fair few when in cover so there's no way you'd be able to get them to stop chasing as soon as the rabbit breaks cover, is there? or is it a pecking ord
  4. just my opinion but I found it hard to keep their weight down with dried food, no matter how small the portions were, never had that problem with raw meat.....some people swear by it though. It's easier feeding dry but I'd rather have them in tip top shape which is easier when feeding meat IMO.
  5. I give mine either half a pound of mince and offal, a couple of chicken legs, three fillets of white fish or approx half a rabbit......that's once a day between three ferrets. I'll also give them two eggs between the three of them if I'm taking them out that day.
  6. I've always found hobs bolt quicker than jills.

  8. I'd hate to see the worst dog you've ever seen if the best is a nasty chow that runs into doors!
  9. scum! where did that happen bud?
  10. talkin more sense than half the people on here.
  11. you keep a lockable cupboard upstairs cos you ain't got room downstairs, you see someone downstairs who you believe is a threat to your family, your gun cupboard is upstairs even though the point of it being there was nothing to do with the potential threat you may encounter......whatever the reason for it being there you take your gun as you are scared for your own life and the life of your family. Not a lot of arguing with that is there?? I guess a lot of it would boil down to how good your defence lawyer is? hopefully none of us will ever be in that situation!
  12. if you live in a rough area and are therefore at risk of break ins couldn't it be seen as reasonable to keep a weapon to hand? the fact is most people have a kitchen (full of knives) around the back door area of their house, so chances are if someone broke in they'd do it at the back and have access to weapons straight away....so surely having your gun or whatever in your room to combat such a threat wouldn't be seen as unreasonable? not in the uk, they are ment to be locked up not possible to have a lockable cupboard in your bedroom then?

  14. presumably you ain't got kids then? for her to come out with that? for me, if there was a 1% chance they could harm my baby they would get it with both barrels and the consequences of that action would be secondary, simple as that.
  15. trust me, if she's been told that a collie cross weighs 56lbs 200 times and has still stuck with him then a THL thread isn't going to ruin anything!
  16. good luck 2 the boy if the pup was any good it would not have been sold for shit money who the f'ck can tell if a pup is any good while it's still a pup....fool!!!!
  17. are you saying Sarah Harding doens't like ginger benders????
  18. ???? what a shit thread!!!! I'm not sure what the original poster was trying to get at, but akitas are nasty...big news! ridgebacks bark....big news! a ridgeback sniffs out a few rabbits? bit fookin deal, trust me...that's not what they were bred for!!!!! there are show lakelands and russells?? and????? there are show bedlingtons aswell? do they have any relevance to the working bedlingtons? no! simple as that. This has to be the most pointless thread on here, and that's saying something!!
  19. The fact is, if you give away pups or sell them for low prices you're always going to get people trying to make a quick buck, it's just human nature. If you think anything else then you're very naive. But I don't get the attitude of the people posting on this thread saying it's his pup he can sell it if he wants......so you're saying what he's done is fine, he's bought a pup for presumably 50 quid or so, and then put it straight up for sale at £150, so he's cashing in on a working lad selling a dog at a decent price to keep it affordable for other working lads? any of you lot that are sayin
  20. If you're talking ferreting then I wouldn't have thought it would be an issue, think of it in terms of a rabbit being underground, they will hear the vibrations from thuds on the ground much more than the noise of a yapping dog 20, 30, 40 yards from the warren. A heavy footed person stood on the warren itself will make the rabbits more wary than a yapper chasing a bunny away from the warren. Bailey, forget that people label your dog as a yapper, if you have good days out with it that's all that matter. A lamper yapping might be a problem, I don't see why a ferreting dog yapping would cau
  21. Akitas are aggressive with other dogs....nothing to do with working???? and ridgebacks make good watch dogs, i.e. they bark at strange people/noises.....do you know for a fact that was an ex police dog handler? or could it have been a silly old story teller? I'm yet to here anyone ever say that any ridgeback is a better police dog than a decent GSD!
  22. don't let on it's you FFS....phone him, arrange to see the dog to buy and then just turn up!
  23. congratulations to you both!!!!!!!!!! hell of a sentence that is!!!
