Recall is important it doesn’t matter how well trained a dog is Though if it’s committed an wants on deer I’ve heard story’s of obedient dogs being taken the distance after deer an what running dog don’t fancy it’s chances on deer if one percents itself there’s not many runners who won’t try there luck

Used to love ferreting an really enjoyed keeping an working my ferrets that I’d done for yrs over about the last 5-7yrs rabbit numbers have dropped an dropped that it is no longer viable to keep ferrets no more I always used to keep 3 Jill’s an a hob then breed when I needed I used to have some decent ferreting permission all nearly lost because there’s no rabbits to ferret no more I do still have use of a hob that I gifted as a pet that I can use at the drop of a hat when ever I find a half decent Warren to have a crack at I’ve got a farm that at the beginning of the season I was asked all ra

Bit of a predictable crank ain’t you! Wait for a sarcastic reply to be added from your boyfriend sheepchaser like his reply sit there waiting for who’s getting your reply an wait for a on the fence reply as no one had said feck all bad about kibble or feeding it as it was about raw feeding an now you think the balls rolling so you need to reply like you do trying to crank everybody ....good luck with that fella maybe you should start a thread or actually try an take part in adding a bit of alright sensible content instead of being a plonker all your life if I’m wrong why are you even on the th

I can be your hero baby but not a upset one ??I wouldn’t say many over complicate things mate if they know what there doing its just how they prefer to feed its personal preference it’s like everything once you got the jist of things it becomes easier and uniformed an quicker. for me I’m uniformed I’ve a good routine when I feed the dogs it’s literally open bags in to there bowls feed dogs refill the bucket to defrost the next days feed no different to getting a cup an scooping biscuits out a bag an putting them in a bowl tbh nothing complicated about it Who’s said anything about 100 runs a ni

Do they go like a meat texture more than a marshmallow type texture mc hull?

Cheers d there eat a bit but not keen on if you offer a big chunk of lung in there bowl but makes sense mincing them up might need to buy a mincer I do get the odd end of life breeding ewe from time to time that’s died I butcher them for my dogs rather than the owner paying the hunt to collect them might just save the lungs up an mince them if I have a old mutton ewe this year if not I’ll mince them with whole rabbit
-
I’ve just been cutting the lungs off just leaving a little on there think it’s got to be about time I invest in a meat grinder an mince them up ??That way I could add them to other meat minces

Man after my own heart ????

Probably mate I’m the type of guy that if something is usable I’d use it I hate waisting stuff I’m terrible to be honest I’m the type of guy that if we slow cook some meat I save the fat an juices to mix biscuits with.....an I hope you don’t think I’m kidding ?the remaining of yesterday’s veg an slow cooked lamb

Don’t be shy of hitting the reduced sections up I’ve no shame in doing it there’s a bargain to be had I always tuck the Morrison’s fish counter up I always ask what’s the cheapest fish they got when there packing down for the evening I tell them it’s gotta be cheap it’s only dog food usually come a way with a bargain

I was thinking the other day I wonder if it’s the texture of em why they don’t like em as much I was thinking there not really a solid so was wondering if they were boiled would they become a solid

I did try the apple cider vinegar crack an salmon oil for a few months but felt it was a waist of money

Below is a handy guide to go off ??I just feed a bit of biscuits I don’t go to mad as I found my dogs prefer fully raw but feed as a little bulker there’s plenty of carbs in biscuits brown bred an pasta I feed sea weed powder as well over there mix raw I also feed veg scraps as well but dogs don’t really need them to be honest being a carnivore. Likes already been said don’t worry to much about all the weights per dog weight I don’t I over feed if there pups weight can always be burned off. People say raw feedings a cheap way to feed dogs but to be honest it’s not no more as everyone as cotton

I feed all mine on a 75%mixed raw 25% kibble that’s what’s worked well for me I feed the same from pups to adult nothing changes bar the kibble an quantity. bowl below was typical type of food I offered my pup if it didn’t eat what was offered it missed out I don’t encourage fussy eating

Like all lurchers you can train as much as you want to high level or basics but if it’s not got heart for the jobs you do (but you won’t know that till it’s actually up an working weather you’ve waisted your time training ) it’s of no use I’ve had it one of the fastest an definitely the most obedient dogs I’ve had was no good in the field unless it was rabbits I trained the dog to a high level as I thought this is the one I think I’d of had no problem competitively competing with that dog and done very well but turned out a coward this dog was entered the same as I do all my dogs slow an stead
