Lara, this bitch will 'smash' mice field or fen 100 yard slips, no kickups! LOL
-
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
-
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
-
That was when we had 'proper' seasons, now it's warm enough for all sorts of wildlife to breed practically all year round.

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

Hope Yous Like Your Look Out With Me And My Bitch

you obviously respect whats around you ................and appreciate the time of year with young and that .........................its a good thing you got going on there ,........ imagine what it would be like letting some of the clowns off here go on there ...........................it wouldnt take long for it to be ruined....... thanks for shareing..... Yep, thinking much the same thing myself -
I agree with you b g, and it aint just gsd x's that prefer to run larger quarry. Had a dog bred out of hancock's taffy and a mongrelly but very greyhoundy bitch many years ago, he wasn't that fussed about rabbits, though he weren't too bad on em, but he was a far more determined dog on hares, and when on deer he was VERY good, and like you say, even fallow bucks singlehanded, which a couple of people I used to run with occasionally wouldn't believe, until I took them out and soon had them believing
-
Dog looks fit as, and that's a good honest offer
-
Not getting into an arguement with anyone, but why would this litter be 'useless pieces of shit' and 'shouldn't' be in the running dog section, and termed as 'useless mongrels', when in an earlier thread there was talk about GWP /BULL/GREY/WHEATEN being bred as a possible lurcher line? They'd be just as much a mongrel litter as the gsd one. And the o p was foley999 not maf. And as tomo said, there might be a couple of gooduns in the litter.
-
The problem isn't with whippets, it's just that they don't don't look 'hard' enough for certain people, or give out the message that they can 'SMASH' everything they run, like a bull x does. LOL. I love whippets, fabulous dogs
-
Good sensible post . I had a dog bred from taffy out of a mongrelly, but very greyoundy bitch, many years ago, not a great rabbit dog, never used to do much in the way of rabbits then really, but he was VERY effective on everything else I used him for. Very fast and powerful dog
-
I think a member on here 'undisputed' had dogs from hancocks, and they certainly looked more than capable of taking ALL quarry, judging by the pics he put up. I've not had adog from there, but two of my mates have, 4 in total, and they also made good allrounders and excellent lampers, again taking ALL quarry. But as pritch suggests, it's probable that the guys that have success with these dogs actually know how to bring a dog on properly.
-
You under estimate the wee dogs I think alot of people, especially the younger people getting into the running dogs in the last 20 years. underestimate these brilliant gutsy little dogs, and also the fact that their owners don't go around bragging what their dogs have 'smashed!' lol, brilliant little dogs
