The one trick ponies of today what exactly are they ?, i've never known a running dog of any breeding that did'nt show an interest in working a variety of quarry given the opportunityyes most running dogs show intrest.But is that enough some excel at coursing some at lamping exc.When we were young there was only space for one running dog.It was expected to take rabbit hare and feather exc And do the job when out with the terriers Today a lot of lurcher lads keep diferent lurchers for different jobs. -

. Do you use the spaniels for beating as well or just bushing? Do they come of game when behind it when running with lurches or keep running?I us both of them for beating and picking up two times a week in season.The springer does not chase at all the cocker will chase but stop on the wistle.Its my lurcher that thinks it a gun dog it retreaves shot game like a labrador.

I think the kids slept in blender tents next to the Waggons aswell...they were made from the same canvas material that the bow top is made of...young hazel shoots bent over to make a dome with the front lifted up facing the fire. Not just the kids slept in them and those families with just a flat cart would have as well,i've lived in many a bender(the tent not the faggot type ) and i used to be able to build one without using string to tie the poles just woven through and you could swing off the frame, but not built one for many a year now.We use to use car windscreens as windows along the
