  1. My mate has one. they have brilliant feet and very intelligent . Can take a good knock a good hardy type. He reckons it’s just the top end speed the dog lacks . I m going to use him across my lads whippet bitch .
  2. Well done . Lovely to see the kids out enjoying themselves. I used to be obsessed with lamping heavy dogs. Now I prefer mooching with the whippet and a terrier or a morning with the ferrets. Just nice to be out the house and watching the dogs work. Are the rough dogs half beddy whippets.
  3. They last a nights lamping which I doubted before I got one . No foot problems so far and no bother in the cold . She s had some good knocks but just got herself up and kept running. Their only down side is their size and weight , but my lad keeps reminding me she s a whippet not a bull cross lol . Can t help myself sometimes it’s just habit owning heavy dogs for years. When I see eyes in the lamp to just slip the dog . He s bollocked me loads of times
  4. I’m impressed with this bitch. She ll jump into brambles . Mark’s , hunts and retrieves to hand.
  5. Nice dogs mate . Is the top one collie bull grey
  6. My best all round dog was a 5/8 x 3/8 . We were out a lot at night, then he was out with the terriers Saturday and a foot pack Sunday’s . Whatever you threw at him he d do it . Was a handy dog on an earth and lamped off the lead, really obedient. When I put him down to old age I had dogs with a higher bull percentage ie first crosses and reverse 5/8 x 3/8 . All game but none as good all rounders as my old dog . I tried 3 3/4 gh x 1/4 bulls. They could all shift but had no bottle . Yes you d have foxes with em but they were vocal when they got bit and fxxxed about with stuff when a bit sore .
  7. Well done . Nice open places as well . Most of ours is hedgerows at the minute
  8. Wish our Morrison’s priced like that. Beef bones are £4 and lamb bones £3 . No where near that size tray either
  9. Well done . Like an old boy used to say to me . They learn nothing in the kennel
  10. I would nt hold my breath mate tbh. Is there nothing decent about by the dogs litter brother or sister
  11. A mate of mine sent me a terrier down and sent a bitch down to be mated to him. The dogs 10 and put her in pup. A vet said to me once if the dog has been used regularly he should still throw pups to an old age
  12. Thanks. I think he s putting a half cross over her next year so be interesting to see what they make. How did u rate the bull whippets compared to a small half cross bull greyhound
  13. Good luck with her. My lads got a bitch with that line on both sides of her breeding . She s a decent bitch . Dives into any cover and has good nose amd stamina for a little whippet
  14. How did you rate the beddy whippets ?
  15. Well done . Nice strong compact little bitch.
  16. Nothing to do with being less of a digging man . I used to be out a lot over a lot of ground and had 2 steady workers and 2 mute mid tube jobs. My mate had a few dogs so we alternated . If I only had rough dogs I would have needed a lot of dogs to get round the digging I did. A rough dog will obviously get way less graft than a steadier dog who can be dug a few times a day . But u have to work with what u have. If someone wants to keep 20 terriers good luck to em. Each individual dog won t get the digs under his belt unless the owner has a shit load of digging and no work or nagging mrs lol.
  17. There’s loads of digging and lamping lads selling dogs for big money . Has been for a while now
