Cracking dog mate ??

Heard a lot of good things about heart break fell bred beddy xs a lot of people that were on the bedlington group when they used to reminisce about decent bedlington greyhounds 9/10 they were heart break bred

I done that but with Lurchers best bedlington greyhound I could find over a good working bitch produced a few that love em but not my own ?she’s a fanny proper flop at the gates but did get a pup back out a bitch I bred to another dog that loves em here’s to hoping??Hopefully better luck with this one can’t win them all even if the ingredients in the pot are right in theory

Greed/££££ names an kc it’s ironic you can pay £500-800 for a kc beddy with all the names under the sun in its breeding and have a slim chance of any thing good coming of it then you can buy a outcross bedlington from 200-350£ out of 2working dogs an turn up a half decent workers but the breeders of bedlingtons can’t get the same results from pure breeding after years of breeding pure bred to pure bred it’s definitely a shame mate tbh as I like bedlington type Lurchers I can always remember our old team of bedlington lurcher foxers before the ban having real fire in them Not like what’s about

When I was a admin of the working bedlington group out of about 3000 people there was only one or two blokes on there I recon that were genuine an good guys with decent bedlingtons the rest were hole sniffers or photo models or just breeders for money the guys that outcrossed there bedlingtons to other blood wasn’t taken To seriously by the purest as they broke there little code of pure ness of kc so wasn’t classed as a bedlingtons .Ironically out of 3 work bred bedlingtons we had on our team over the years only one was half decent that was a out cross the pures didn’t last long There owner ga

in honesty I think the bedlington lurcher as a regular foxer is all but a bye gone memory mooch the fire that was once in there belly to do fox regular as clockwork is all but near on disappeared to the odd fox here an there but no out an out foxers due to how the pure bedlington is bred these days it’s sad really as being a bedlington lurcher fan my self knowing the future looks so bleak for the bedlington lurcher an limited to a rabbit dog Crazy times ain’t it fella not what they used to be

My white bitch as had a few opportunities to retrieve shot fox this season tbh I was a little disappointed with her efforts or lack of it on them! to begin with I was a bit disappointed about it it’s a bit of a let down when a dog you bred is a anti climax like that when they were looking a real hopeful.I like a all rounder type ready for anything as that’s what I bred them for I think it’s luck of the draw some will some won’t but that’s what it is Unfortunately she seems ok in other departments but shot fox not her bag yet a few of her siblings love retrieving em ??I’ve come to the conclu

Fleas are a pain in the ass The only way to control them is to upset there breeding cycle it’ll eventually get rid of them it’s a nightmare if your catching rabbits as a lot of rabbits carry fleas it can be a constant battle google up there breeding cycle it has a few tips on there that might be of some help fella

Trying to offer me a night out Like I’m trying to buy a dog of ya like it’s a trial...ok dell boy? it will get you nowhere I’m not interested in being associated with a peddling bullshitter who’s had more dogs than hot dinners that always as a excuse why a dog is for sale!!! I’ll take the piss out of you as I see fit fella the more I see you peddling dogs on the more I’ll laugh at you An drop a comment??I keep dogs as workers an they are pets as well for life an get the best out of them in doing so ??no point in trying to fool any one on here with that working Lurchers only bullshit no one fal

Didn’t need it at the time but do now we’re I live as it’s all gated an stock everywhere I still visit the old spot through out the season it’s funny lamping on there knowing there’s no stock or gate ways just open gaps from field to field I had a friend come down to stay for a dusk till dawn session the first time they stayed they were shocked I think they thought I was bull shiting about no stock no gates only down side to this is if your a road sider an you know the gap on to the land the opposite side of town you got a good bit of land to cover by vehicle used to be a lot of scousers come

some Paying guns I’ve been told don’t like to see running dogs get any action but I’ve been told a few like a glorious sight of a lurcher in action retrieve shot hare an fox it was the highlight of the day but yeah dogs running deer on a shoot day by accident is looked on dimly
-
Its not hard at all your right fella there?? but some guys have never needed stock broken dogs so it’s not really a must as such unless your working dogs around stock Then it’s a must obviously But like I said we never needed stock broken dogs we had some good pre ban dogs that were used for a bit of everything but some lads still don’t need stock broken but back then because there is no stock an still isn’t on that land for miles around to worry about an or the dogs to worry lol but like I’ve said I got really lucky with my old collie x she was sound round stock although never being formally
-
Should! but not everyone has access to live stock it’s a hard thing to accomplish if you don’t keep stock your self no farmer i know is going to let random lurcher lads among there stock unless your in the farmers pocket or he’s in yours .some will never need a dog stock broken to sheep ,cattle etc I went for years without stock breaking my dogs to farm stock as it wasn’t needed I only needed a dog broken to chickens an ferrets that were my own were I used to live every direction you went in was arible land as far as the eye could see it was all permitted an still is you didn’t even need a d

Black necks only pulling ya pisser mate think his dogs a bull bred Lurchers if memory serves me right

Yes that’s what the dogs owned for running weather it misses or catches its running its bollox off I mean we’re not talking running dogs at rabbits sat at the edge line people are talking about collie crosses doubting there selfs when runs have the same possibility of a catch than any other but point blank refuse the opportunity yet in the past same said dogs have run an made catches. Years ago the game was different opportunities ie number of rabbits we’re high you had the option to pick rabbits out for the dog you could get on top of them before you slipped people have gone off them to a deg
