What do you mean by "qualified for Ireland" What do you mean by "qualified for Ireland"That's a good question SH, do they have deerhound coursing meetings in Ireland ?, thought it was just greyhounds in enclosures now ? I think she meant lure coursing lads Lures are for falconry, what the fukc use is a lure to a 30 odd inch 7 stone bigfoot ffs lol Lures are for fishing too. But when she says 'we course on the lure too, great fun and have two uk champions, qualified for ireland twice, and both not yet three year old', in the same sentence, I think you can take it that she meant lure

Very nice, last pic's a belter

Lol

I know what you're saying mate, but I'd just always have that little bit of doubt in the back of my head, I just don't really like lurchers with a fair amount of bull in, and it would play on my mind and colour my judgement of the pup lol. But, as the saying goes, never say never lol
-
Very true what you say there roybo, and my eye is drawn immediately to that dark brindle every time I log on to this site lol. BUT, even though neither parents are bull x's per se, with bull in both of them, and quite a lot in the sire, I personally wouldn't take a punt on one, even though they are very nice pups the sire has about 3/16 bull not a massive amount of personally why wouldn't you take a punt ,just don't like bull in the breeding. That's basically it really mate, I'm just not a fan of lurchers with bull in them. I personally know of a couple of dogs with a bit of bull in them, a

@ roybo, don't feel any remorse over colour, I don't like black of any sort............. unless it's in my rum! Lol
-
Look a nice litter fairplay. And like roybo said, those two red pups, and the dark brindle, little belters
-
Looks a cracking place, 2nd pic looks peaceful
-
Don't pick a merle pup if you intend to use it for fox. Merles can't kill foxes
-
Mind you, I've also heard of 1st cross beddy/whippets that were demons at killing fox! Heresy I say, but who knows?! Lol
-
As long as you're having fun, that's all that matters really in the grand scheme of things
-
I think most people on here now realise plummer was full of shit, as you yourself are. Let it go, you'll feel a lot better lol
-
I seriously think you need to wake up, and let the bitterness go lol
-
1st x deer/grey 30 tts, and also took everything else, and I mean everything. Not ownened by me I hasten to add, but my best friend. At his peak on fox, I'd say it was roughly 1986-89 or thereabouts
-
You are the 1 saying my dogs won't catch anything.but you ain't seen a pic of them lol. I'm full of shit?! Ooooh how rude! Lol. Yeah I have seen a couple of pics you put up, but it's only the one of the pale dog jumping a fence I remember. You crack on with your bull x's
-
And it aint 'my wisdom' or whatever derogatory remark you care to make about what I've written, it's a bit of common sense, a bit of experience and and also NOT BEING A SHEEP

I'm not having a go of you fella.I wish you good luck with your pup and hope it does what you want. I was asking shark a question which he has avoided. Avoiding you I certainly aint fella, And if you want, or feel the need to source dogs from only linebred animals, in the belief that that's what you need to do to produce a worker, like 75% of the 'sheep' on here, well that's your perogative. Plenty of shit produced from linebred animals, and more inbred faults, weaknesses etc, by breeding to only certain lines etc than most outcrossed animals.Good luck with your golly bred dogs lol So woul

Lovely pup

That's what I was alluding to in my earlier post. Besides not having the opportunity to catch 30 or 40 in a session, the welfare of my dogs, at all times, comes before my ego, or even the desire to catch more than anyone else etc. Observing my dog and making sure it's ok whilst it's working has always been my main concern. Not having a dig at anyone in particular, but some of the posts put up by some of the older, good dogmen. has in my view, led some youngsters, that are simply not able to condition a dog as well as some of the older guys, to try to emulate or even better them. Just the way
-
As you've quite correctly said, observation of my dogs, some would say overcautious and bordering on fanatical lol, is key to maintaining good health and wellbeing at all times . I've never used eloctrolytes and will probably never have the need to.
-
Similar thing with me when I did a fair amount of lamping. Bit of a rest after each run and made sure they had a drink of water, usually from a stream, every so often. No problems ever. But like gaz just said, I don't think electrolyes would do any harm
-
He's a nice little pup, should do ok on the rabbits lol
