  1. The deer/grey x collie/grey were, are and always will be MUCH better than bull x's, and there are still a few good litters of this type available fairly frequently, if you have a bit of a look around
  2. same here Same here bobby, but I must admit to a liking for the faster brindles, especially the big tall mousehound types like our 'girl' lol
  3. 19" and 15kg. Definate rabbit dog size. a little limited when lamping, but I put that down to lack of height on the rougher ground we have around here. I've had similar dogs before, but bred down from the grey rather than the whippet and they excelled at lamping anywhere. @ paulsmithy, this is the exact point I was making about taller dogs on rough ground
  4. Hahahha the 3rd pic is ma spaniel but if you mean the blue dog,, he`s beddy whippet bud ! Although some folk have other ideas !lol Lol I can see he's a spaniel, nice , they're all tidy looking dogs. I think it's an interesting point though that spaniels and saluki types have a similar ear carriage though. Was wondering if you went back far enough to when the moors settled in spain etc, if the dogs they kept would be as strictly seperated as they are now, just a thought, anyway, like I said, nice dogs
  5. That rough dog's a belter , not too keen on the saluki x in the 3rd pic down though, a bit too strong headed for my tastes lol, nice dogs
  6. Cheers pal for the help you would think us lads would pull together with times being as hard as they are with the law on our backs but theres lads like you pal that need to grow up mush. I agree pal,he,s taking the pish,a sensible lad like you deserves a lot better,a back passage thrusting by Errol may feck some sense into what little resource your skull capacity may allow,tell you mam. Lol after that 'big powerful bitch' thread mullarky I can't take f**k all serious on here anymore today!
  7. Yep, I'd say the majority of young dogs being passed on etc nowadays have been tried far too early. And not just at fox. Like you say, most dogs, especially the larger types, are still pups really to a certain degree until well after 18 months. And age isn't really much of a guide, you're better off observing how the dog matures from puplike behaviour to a more serious/adult way about it before expecting alot from it.
  8. Dont forget to go for the brindle,their faster than the merle variety ,some real sound advice on here for you Brindles definitely make faster mousehounds, FACT!!! Lol
  9. Kin el, was just about to hit the sack til I started reading that! Lol. Good stuff
  10. Feck off, he'd scare half the feckers on here to death, never mind any mice!!
  11. Go on, admit it, he's a merle/BRINDLE! lol He so isn't ! He couldn't catch a cold lol ! I've had a brindle, but I think the stripes were the wrong way round - he was sloooooowwwwww ! Nothing wrong with slow, mice aint that fast, just very nimble, you've got a slow, but very nimble dog!
  12. Go on, admit it, he's a merle/BRINDLE! lol
  13. Scoff at your peril people, brindle mousehounds are the way forward! FUUUCK the ban!!!
  14. That is one belting bitch mate looks like the girl dog with rough coatYeah it does, cracking bitch
  15. Lara, this bitch will 'smash' mice field or fen 100 yard slips, no kickups! LOL
  16. The breeding is top notch, and this coming season she might be used on mice at night as well as the day! lol, by the way, she was only 12 months in that pic and has matured very nicely, so we are expecting to run into double figures on the mice! lol
  17. A taller dog, as long as it's agile, is going to be of more use than a smaller type in alot of situations, especially lamping on ground with a fair amount of roughish scrub/cover or whatever, due to a better field of vision due to it's height, more so when you're after a few mice! lol
  18. That was when we had 'proper' seasons, now it's warm enough for all sorts of wildlife to breed practically all year round.
  19. is that to me? The mother and father to my bitch was both under 26 , an my bitch is 29Rob, dam 26.5", sire 25", but she 29", and to the people saying tall no power, can't turn, can't pick up etc, you must've been looking at some SHIT dogs! This bitch is between 75- lb, fit as f**k and very well muscled up, but racy with it, not bulky or overly developed, and is incredibly powerful, but also very agile. Can get down even to pick mice up with no bother at all, never mind rabbits! She gets mistaken for a pure greyhound dog all the time, even by people who've kept greyhounds and lurchers for yea
