  1. collie/grey x deer/grey , great feet, enough pace, stamina, agility, brains, oh yeah, and tenacity, should it need it lol
  2. Correct , I just saw a pic of a saluki and thought it was going to be 10 pages of nonsense, but I just read the whole post lol, very interesting and informative
  3. cornering hard? Any half tidy dog, no matter how it's bred, should be cornering hard. You think only saluki crosses can corner hard? Some of you lads need to take the blinkers off, there were, and still are, plenty of dogs with no saluki in catching hares, were rather, pre ban
  4. Feck me that's an ugly cur! Dog seems happy enough though! lol
  5. Jb is that pup similar breeding to yours, the bitch with a bit of bed/bull in it, looks a similar stamp?
  6. Thanks guys you've put my mind at rest, can't wait to get my hands on my birthday present now! lol cheers lads
  7. After a bit of extra info on the weight really. Handled one without a scope in the gun dealers and it felt very nice, if a tiny bit heavy. Tried the 95k and a few others and they felt very light and I had more of a problem aiming and sighting these steady. Would the fact that I haven't used an air rifle in years make the feel heavier than it really is, and would I get used to the weight the more I use it? I weigh 14 1/2 stone and some of the lighter rifles did feel really too light. All thoughts, advice etc gratefully received
  8. Or that yeah lol, no point getting a type of dog you don't really want
  9. A quick nippy type with a good drop of whippet, or a small type greyhound in should be ok, ground sounds same as what's local to me if I go for a quick wander
  10. Makes sense that socks, I couldn't do neither, the dogs me and my son keep don't get worked, apparently lol
  11. I'll bet you 25 quid mines better than yours on ALL quarry Lol I got a tad sanctimonious there, but you get my drift, apple juice and birthdays
  12. Had dogs years before I'd even heard of plummer, but it's a fact that what he wrote about his dogs catching vast amounts of quarry whilst they were still pups, and how he trained them to complete a rubiks cube before they were 8 weeks of age or whatever, is the reason why many lads expect far too much of their dogs, especially when they're still pups
  13. For arguments sake, we've got a bitch here which I know would give practically every dog I know a complete and utter kicking on ALL quarry, yep, ALL QUARRY, do you here or read of me challenging anyone? I think not, and you will not. You might have a better dog, good luck, whatever, competition with dogs is the ruination of dogs, and I know it hasn't been mentioned yet, but all the shit and nonsense 'plummer' and the like wrote about dogs is the main reason why youngsters getting into dogs these days haven't got much of a clue. Mods or whatever, feel free to delete this if you deem fit
  14. And if it's competition you want, race greyhounds. In my mind competition and lurchers should NOT be in the same same sentence
  15. kin el, I'm glad as f**k I don't bother with all this COMPLETE AND UTTER SHITE!!! Why can't people enjoy their dogs without it all being a competition?
  16. Patch with a capital 'P' and it was 9 months Hahaha , know of a few pups that were tried at about that age from the valleys, promising pups ruined
  17. My two biggest pet hates, 'the patch dog', substitute any name other than patch, and 'smash', especially when used in the same context, eg, 'by the patch dog, smashing 'teeth' at 10 months, no 'reverse gear' blah blah! What happened to 'from good working parents', or is that another sign of the times?
  18. Is that a pure saluki daz? Very unusual markings, well, to me anyway, not seen one marked like that, very nice dog No he's 3/4 saluki 1/4 whippet, he's actually tri coulour there's a good few of the gingery tan spots on him especially round his muzzle, a boy asked me other day if he was saluki x dalmation Very nice looking dog, I assume he's useful, I like him
  19. Is that a pure saluki daz? Very unusual markings, well, to me anyway, not seen one marked like that, very nice dog
  20. Let most dogs, crosses, types, purebreds, whatever, 'boss' you a couple of times and you'll have problems
  21. Totally agree with that, no bull blood needed to put more fire in any lurcher
