    I know you're jesting blacky lol, but none of my pups have ever been asked/tried to catch anything on purpose, different when you're out on a walk and a rabbit gets up and they chase it, before they are about 13/14 months, and then it'll be some easy as I can make it, lamped rabbits for a while. But that's me, always been the same. My old man and his mate kept greyhounds, from the 70's til very early 80's, and used to stress to me about leaving a running dog mature a bit and let it 'grow into itself' before starting em properly.

    Yes, but a lot of people didn't take it as light hearted, hunting themed entertainment, and took it as 'gospel'. Not me, before you think otherwise. But I personally think that the tripe he wrote about his terriers and lurchers catching x amount by the time they were 4, 5, 6 months old etc etc, is a lot of the problem why many newcomers getting into dogs and hunting, are expecting WAY TOO MUCH of their pups and getting pissed off that their 8, 9, or 10 month old pup is struggling with catching stuff. It's still a pup!

    Oooh I can see the hostile replies piling up on this one! ?

    Plenty of people with running dogs don't want the hassle and risk involved with actually working them. And as has already been said, some types/crosses can be really driven, and will pay no heed to any possible danger. The fact that you're actually seen him in action, and are expressing some of these possible worries/concerns etc, looks pretty good to me. I'm sure you'll be ok with him. ?

    Could be the way to go, especially if you don't intend eating what he might catch? Anyway, he certainly is a nice looking dog, you've got him looking decent enough already. ?

    Well up until fairly recently, I've been ok reading/struggling with many posts on here. I know not everyone is good at spelling, grammar etc, but I've sometimes had a try at some posts, and given up and moved on, which is a shame, as some of these fellas have some interesting and valid things to say. But there we are, things move on. ?

    Run that by us again mate, please? It's ok to use grammer, other than a forward slash. ? ? Don't see this as a dig mate, but I'd appreciate a lot more of your posts if I didn't have to check myself every few words. ........... yours in sport, shaaark lol ??

    Yeah think I seen a couple of pics you put up the other day, come to think of it. Very nice mate, good luck with em. Cracking cross. ?

    Nice looking dog he is mate. Where did you get him?

    To be fair mate, she didn't say 'romani folk', she said 'travellers'. ?
  13. shaaark
    That's a tad abrasive sir! ?

    Reading the posts he's put up in the couple of threads he's got going, is like he's writing to gullible and inexperienced 17 or 18 years olds, and expecting them to believe most of the shite he's written lol. I've got a few distant memories of some of the stuff from the 'shooting news' myself, and am looking forward to 'neal' putting up those artcles he mentioned lol. ?

    Quite right. @Fernylass, excuse my childish behaviour earlier. After reading your post in new members, I just wondered why you are a vegetarian. No malice intended. ?

    Minx! ?

    What's he like around othed dogs when he's offlead? Seen more than a few 'skittish/nervy' dogs bolt for the hills when let loose around other dogs. Maybe a good idea to establish what he's like on that score, before you venture too far into the countryside.

    Only just read this. ? What about eggs, cheese, fish etc, you ok with that?
  20. shaaark
    Not really, so why the vegetarianism? ? Oh yeah, are you just a vegetarian, or a full on vegan? ?
  21. shaaark
    Sling em up fella, could be interesting. ?
  22. shaaark
    Some people want a first cross whippet/greyhound. I for one have had them in the past, and would choose one again over a non ped, some of which look like a gust of wind would blow them over.
  23. shaaark
    Why are you a vegetarian, any sane explanation? ?

    Come to think of it, it's been several months since I can recall him posting anything.

    That's just about the size of it. Tyson 'the joking gypsy king fairy' has never intended fighting joshua.
