? mate ??That’s what it’s all about it’s what floats your boat not every other fuckers an what keeps you happy??
-
Definitely you know ??
-
A bit sad they’d have to be unemployed an soulless no misses no kids
-
Here here? same as me mate I’ll get a trip a couple of hours traipsing the fields in the week for a look then at weekend’s I do a decent night out an then a occasional Sunday ferreting trip to wind down I get no numbers of nothing just a steady tick over throughout the season an get them runs in

Nowt wrong with a bit o whippet in bunny busters mate ??Tbh If my game was just rabbit an I need a small dog for hunting them a working whippet dog would be choice of execution I’d rather a straight whippet than a whippet lurcher id never touch a beddy whippet again as it don’t suit my lands no more
-
Mate that’s also true most the dudes on here give it 7days7nights a week week in week out bull shit! You know point blank there bull shitters from the off it’s all talk to a Internet audience the reality is there more than likely the same as everyone else a couple o nights a week just ticking over like the rest of use an pushing forward
-
Cheers fella ?? If it works it works mate there’s no denying If it’s doing the jobs the guy got them for. Bull or saluki is my not go to crosses I’ve no personal issues with them crosses there just not for me personally as I favour the more traditional stuff like a bit of collie blood a lot of good beddy blood an abit of deerhound to greyhounds I’m less inclined to want whippet blood in my dog’s anymore
-
Exactly that mate ???
-
Yeah they do mate but it’s up to them with there opinion it don’t mean it’s right or wrong but I think it’s all personal preference for individual needs in my instance I can’t an won’t have a dog bred for every Different quarry out there it wouldn’t work out economical to me personally to keep so many different dogs for different jobs giving it the horse’s for courses routine plus all the time you’d have to put in to them dogs plus cost keep them and to give them work I’d rather 1 or 2 dogs of that type to keep ticking over an keep them well. In my eyes one type a trier of all master of none

There be wanting a fight with me in the nearby lay by for £1000?????

I tend to upset a lot of people sadly in this game but that’s never my intention to upset people i lay all cards on the table an give a honest opinion that’s all it is collie an bedlington fan boys are temperamental as f**k they are the worst they won’t let you give a honest opinion how you see the cross even if your running these crosses because they like you to bum these crosses up I even openly grade my own dogs honesty always comes first I look at it like this if you can’t be honest with people you can’t be honest with your self you end up kidding your self an the dog becomes a lie ?? i

Don’t you dare mention Hancock on here ????I’ve seen a couple of half decent collie greyhound x deerhound greyhound??An yes they were Hancock blooded even my own collie blood in my dogs now was a Hancock bred dog ? no good scrap em ??????
-
Some are mate have you seen some of the people in the Lurcher game these days thick as pig shit ??
-
I’ve got a collie bedlington hybrid here that don’t get involved with retrieveing shot ?in my eyes that’s lack of heart an a complete fanny! An no it don’t mean there clever it means there a coward an not to be bred from to continue lines on
-
I’m of the same opinion I’d no longer add any collie blood back in to my dogs it’d take away rather than add any traits that are useful to me or I need now
-
Your probably right mate it might not be the collie blood it might be how it’s been bought on I’ve just given my 2pence worth in what I’ve had or seen An blokes I know that were collie x men they’ll all say the same thing you’ve got to have that sturdy head on your shoulders because there rack your brains at times but same could be said about most crosses tbh
-
Lucky escape mate ?? Could of been a expensive mooch about
-
You might be better off waiting till next season now mate till there a few more green rabbits about that way you can drop right on top of them before slipping gaining good lamping confidence in your young dog no point in long slipping at this time of year the season’s done the rabbits are the survivors of the winter slog they know exactly what the crack is an they know exactly we’re there heading I alway start dogs on squatters to try give them the best chance of a catch I’ll not slip young dogs on rabbits sat down hedge lines if there not sat out in the field an I can’t get between were there
-
I’ve always had better luck with a half decent size dog than a little un I feel to restricted with little dogs a good mid way between both will do what a big un an little un will do gives you more options than restrictions
-
Could be bored of going to the same spot doing the same routine daily obviously a pretty clever dog as he remembers his way home but the reason probably why he ain’t coming to you when called is you just ain’t no fun to him Walking the same routine as horrible as that sounds more fun to be had at home with the kids This covid 19 social distancing is no good for dogs it’s completely changed all habits my young bitch as picked a nasty habit of barking at other dogs I’m there pulling her away to keep 2m apart that makes her think she’s got to run her mouth at them my dogs are usually very
-
Wouldn’t be for me ray having a dog for one job Of that breeding tbh but be interesting cross. a lad in our click was on about if his bitch turns out any good Down the road he’ll go to a courseing dog as his land is big an has plenty of them fast bunnies kicking about
-
you know as well as me if it’s not a 28tts an up line bred bull greyhound that looks like it’s been on steroids it’s incapable? I know a 24tts bitch that’s put a good few fallow to bed now if they’ve got it they’ve got it there’s no denying ?? Got a pup out of said bitch but in my hands it’ll not have a scratch on the dams capabilities
-
The subject was deer in general it didn’t specify on the title of the thread that it was just fallow or sika deer or out an out deer dogs. I was on about roe an muntjac As deer in general that’s still a achievement for such a small bitch of 21tts how many 21tts dogs do you know that are more than rabbit dogs. There’s no denying a dog/bitches capability’s if there dropping fallow or sika saying they need to be Say a set size weight hight would be foolish ability comes in all shapes an sizes were all here just giving a opinion on what we see as suitable because none of us can say as a set in sto
-
Yep but not intentionally with a fast old 26tts collie x same bitch I’d ferret in the same woodland all my dogs were used to woodland running at one time
-
I’m not really a saluki fan or do I have any thing at all against them there just not my bag but what I’ve seen an heard is a lot of people say is with Salukis there all different with how the breeding of them goes they all have different running styles an builds tbh I couldn’t see why a saluki or a saluki x shouldn’t do deer if it’s got the heart for it ?? A mate of mine used to have a bitch that was 21tts not really a heavy built bitch at all fine an racey she was a proper bitza bred collie deerhound greyhound whippet that little dog was forever nocking them over with ease not really the
