My Bitches share but you can’t give them any on the bone meat or any treats to keep them occupied some times there scrap/dispute over spots to sleep tbh honest it’s not worth the risk even more so with dogs your asking for trouble especially if it’s powerful types or if one decides it wants to be Alfa to the old dog that won’t give in easy one of my mates had his younger male nearly killed a older male over nothing probably over sleeping spot luck he was home when it kicked off to Go and stop the scrap the he said the old dog would be dead else he said his young dog was intent on killing the o

What did the government expect would happen when they made certain quarry illegal with dogs all them years ago?? they took power away from farmers who could dictate who they had on there land that had decent lads take care of things that had things all in hand if a land owner permits permission now to run illegal stuff he’s liable as well as the people committing offence so with the ban in place they’ve created a illegal competitive gambling racket were the punishment is hard if your court hence why vehicles are used damage is caused because of competitiveness to get to game an cash is king

That’s it mooch all down to the horse for the course i mean your not going to go far wrong with a whippet beddy if your games a bit of ferreting an bushing about but a decent bred bedlington greyhound will do that an more with gears same as me mate I like the ready for anything type I bred out of 2decent dogs but didn’t get what I Was expecting ?? others that had pups off me got what I was expecting An they seem happy I got unlucky but I can’t slag my own dog off to much she’s better than I give her credit for she’ll ferret for me works the lamp bushes she’s live to hand works through stock an

Half x whippet bedlington to me don’t make no sence when a bedlington greyhound isn’t a big dog a f1 beddy whippet it’s not one nor the other but terrier whippet x f1 whippet greyhound or other larger sighthound makes sense but then again people have to start somewhere I don’t think I’d own a Little whippet x again I’d rather have a straight work bred whippet if I had to have a whippet size dog I’ve found in our country your to restricted with small dogs you got to have a medium/large type an be ready for anything no point in a small dog that has to run twice as hard to cover the same ground d

I’ve seen whiplingtons for £750 bloody crazy money it’s not doing the bedlington lurcher any favours but then again nor are the people that are breeding straight bedlingtons with there greed an breeding for names charging high price tags the only way types or breeds prosper in the working game is working homes at working mans prices to get them the work good workers go back in the shit gets discontinued but money changes the goal post

That would do my nut if I wanted a dog for mooching an running stuff but ended up having to take a shovel everywhere I went because the fecker was dropping to ground the idea of owning a running dog for running stuff an the thought of having to use my little arms to shift dirt don’t sound to appealing to me if it did I’d own a terrier id rather you than me

I’ve no plans on breeding out the white bitch at present as I’ll be over dogged Again but I do know the right bull cross if I do a mate of mine owns a good un I’ve seen run that I like a lot got a lot of time for this dog and his owner ??I’m sure his owner won’t mind me putting a pic up of his dog he’s a decent dude

I like the sound of that bull bedlington greyhound ?????I’ve 2 bedlington hybrids there both related the white pied bitch is auntie to the pup the mum to the pup is sister to the white bitch bred out of the first mating I done I lost the original bitch I kept I’ve high hopes for the pup as the white bitch as not exactly turned out what I was hoping for

Wouldn’t speak ill of the bedlington mate there be after ya ??? the secret society of straight bred bedlingtons!

Id like to see more working bred bedlington greyhounds about bred out the right stuff it’s becoming a Very sad old doo for people that like bedlington Greyhound Lurchers finding a decent bedlington stud that produces decent hard bedlington greyhounds an produces what the cross is meant to be not just rabbiter hunting dogs I’ve nothing against rabbit dogs but it’s just handy to know there not limited ?

Recognised the hall I used to get up there when they have the cage bird sales in there. Bloody shame the traveling lads all kicking off with each other at a kids boxing event ??There not doing there selfs no favours always moan about predigest against them they could of took there disputes out side there’s a massive car park an big field out the back of there they have sorted there disputes out out the way fairly the proper way instead of bringing disappointment up on there selfs an others that will look upon traveling folk as all the same

Whippet won't let go of rabbits

Worst thing to do is go to the dog. if it’s returning dummies to hand regular it can do what your asking but I guess it’s down to experience /excitement next time it has a catch call the dog show how excited you are with the catch An how happy you are about the catch f**k all this bullshit about making noise your at the beginning an learning a dog the ropes You do what it takes to get what you need from the dog if the dog picks the catch up an starts to walk towards you start walking Backwards away putting distance between you an the dog -
There’s no perfect land only a perfect place an that’s layed on the sofa because you can ensure no dog got damaged asleep on the sofa ?? It’s one of them things if you work em they will pick up injuries no matter how careful you are I’ve had dogs that are mainly greyhound bred that have served well with minimal injury throughout there career and I’ve had dogs with a fair bit of base blood that have picked up injury’s more readily on the same land that racey dogs never picked up none it all swings in roundabouts

It’s a pup mate no different to any other pup training wise Regardless of it being bull blooded everything’s a game to them at that age that you can take advantage of let it be a pup it’s good that he’s confident that’s something you can work with towards your future together but got to remember there not robots there inquisitive there blank canvases they learn to fit in as they grow. I like a confident pup strong willed pup personally my self I like a firey little pup that’s full of beans there the best pups to train in my eye they keep you on your toes an your training methods interesting an

Got to be worth £1 for a read mate ?? I used to have a decent lurcher book collection but soon realised after reading a few There all the same just worded differently they all give the same information that’s not really worth much in practical terms it’s all just mandatory stuff no real information on say feeding,exercise or how to check dogs over or how to repair light crapes etc I gifted most away to fb groups or friends
