    This is my young un she’s a home bred bitch she’s had a couple of small lamp trips an been successful on her trips but I called any more lamping a day till the ground softeneds up it’s still like rock under foot and I don’t want to smash her feet to pieces being the only bitch I’ve got to run now has her mum is living sofa life retirement

    Exactly that mate

    I believe the same mate not all collie xs do it my old bitch never in her life picked or choose her runs nor none of this stalking shit that collie xs are meant to do i lamped the bitch regular I was told it was dogs that are lamped regular that do it?? if it was aluminateed she’s try her hardest for me to catch it even if she’s not to keen (on bite back gear) she’d still pull em great for bringing young uns on but not her strong point but I still rate collie xs as a rule as pretty handy dogs in the right hands An good fun I don’t think there for everyone though as they can be temprimental

    I agree with you to a extent mate I’ve had my nose in one or two books in my time most of these books are just piggy backed of each other An slightly reworded most are bullshit once you’ve read one there all the same and you finish the book none the wiser I don’t see the point in reading about someone else’s bigged up experiences it’s just story’s to sell

    If she’s a valued brood bitch jigsaw has she produced anything decent ?
  9. poxon
    Sounds a decent collie to be fair I’d want to see it work with my own eyes if I was you mate Now’s the time to see it work before the greyhound bitch breaks down if it’s as good as he says it is get the bitch lined rare as hens teeth f1s does the greyhound bitch do out?

    If your not out looking you don’t know mate is the old saying your never see nothing sat on the sofa....that’s my old motivational saying if I’m in 2 minds to bother or not I’ve had some pretty decent nights when the conditions are all wrong for a lamp pre ban and ban I try using a bit of field craft though using hedge lines to my advantage staying on one side An coming through for a look I don’t think it makes much difference if your visiting someone else’s land.down in the midlands I wouldn’t of thought there’s no numbers men as there are no numbers just honest men who go for a few runs i th

    Same here mate bit of driving about between spots plenty of hedge huggers here think once the crop starts coming up there be more runs to be had right out in the field an has the hedge line dies back after a few frost there be more out feeding in the fields. If I can get a couple every time I go out once I start getting going properly I’ll be a happy man I’m not interested in pushing young dogs slow consistent An steady this season

    Mate no need for running no were mate worst thing to do is run just casually slide off no your land your running the dogs over An your exits I don’t do no running ?? man the cost of hard living working out side all year round for a living it fucks you up I’ve had a few close shaves in my time but just casually walk it off If they catch me I deserve it for not being witty enough An hold my hands up admitting fair cop
  15. poxon
    no large numbers about local just small pockets here An there but not looked on everyone else’s land yet?....I think we’re get by an have plenty of sport ??

    I never see the point in showing them loads of work young I’ve seen loads of people working them like adults over the years being to keen to get them going there normally f****d by 3-4yrs of age when started to young there always seems to be problems with lack of retrieving,recall,hunting up or the basics required I don’t think there’s a problem with a drop of ferreting to nets with young dogs as you can use commands like sitting the dog or staying the dog in a position or blind stays also it gets the dog some live fur between its mouth without over taxing the dog excellent for confidents I th

    Was speaking to a person that racing dogs this evening I asked them about bone radiol in our conversation if it needs watering down for running dogs they told me no they use it straight out the bottle on there dogs an have done for a number of years with a stiff brush an work it in very well to the area of damage only 3days on 3days off don’t plaster the dog in the stuff just keep it to the area that needs treatment they told me it’s a good product an they rate it ??

    Ive never used one I think some can look quite smart though I see a picture of a nice one yesterday on a group I really liked the look of it but I’d never own one in f1 it’d drive me round the bend I recon I couldn’t imagine them being that fast though I don’t think my land would suit this cross one bit An I don’t think I’d suit the cross although liking a bit of herding dog in the mix some people have said they have the potential to be quite vocal as well I can see why with the cattle dog in the mix bet if I had one on my ground it’d sing it’s head off on the lamp when the going got tough wou

    Mine stay till they meet there maker you return the loyalty that the dog as given you over the seasons with the great times an experiences they’ve given you. a comfy bed An bit of feed cost nowt for a hero that made it to retirement. dog shit Lurcher owns jack on there own dogs an try An kid people that there the real deal Lurcher men! that only keep workers but the real Lurcher men/women know different An wouldn’t dream of such matters as they know the dogs earned its comfort in retirement ain’t that part of the parcel of being a real Lurcher man??. For me it’s a verbal contract when I buy a

    I can’t see that the feed skip day being of any use to a dog that’s actually worked once fat resources have gone it don’t take long in Lurchers or nearly gone the body will crave a substance to make energy and start breaking down muscle mass kind of counter productive

    One man said it so it’s got to be true jackknife ??more than likely a guy who ain’t got a clue how to train what is basic requirements are so blames the type as it’s easily to blame a dog that can’t speak wonder how is dogs are at retrieving ?
