Had a good bull wheaten hound dog,this season he was 7 and started to miss too many foxes,he was trying hard but was always worked hard and had a few old injuries especially a shoulder one and he lost a lot of speed and turning.

No need for heat lamps.i have a litter of pups to 5 weeks all healthy and strong with no heat never mind adult dogs.all they need is a dry draught free bed with some bedding.my kennels only have insulation in the ceiling and are block built and when I open the bench area to walk in,in the mornings I can feel the heat as I open the door.

No prob,I wasn't having a go at you,just saying things are done differently here.well bred pups can and will fail to my standards and anolder proven dog is priceless.done deal here is full of ads of lads selling dogs to concentrate on pups,every one of them is a cull.

If you are parting a 4 year old to concentrate on pups then the 4 year old mustn't be much good.any dog I have that reaches the age of 4 in my kennels would be priceless to me and would be proven and worth a thousand pups.

Well done,hopefully he will be as single handed in wintertime when he will meet some resistance.

Hello lads,I've kept canaries but never mules.I have a goldfinch mule,a last years bird and is struck finch.My question is,if he is kept now in hearing of a cock canary will he lose the finch song,either now or after the moult?I want to keep him but would move him to avoid spoiling him.

Well. Al the ones ye English have been given are prob trainable obedient and totally adorable.the proper working wheaten line would never be passed on to people who spend their days on the hunting life and rightly soWhat are wheaten lurchers like as in regards trainablity, obedience? Are they head strong or....? What is their wind like? What us thier wind like at say 3/4 grey 1/4 wheaten?
Genui

By the looks of them they aren't bred to catch anything.them deerhounds were shit weren't they
Probably cause deerhounds aren't bred to catch hares.

m123,its obvious to anyone looking at your countless photos of your pup that she is very special,you are also a bit special i think.

he is a big dog all [BANNED TEXT].there was a dog bred the same way as him locally here years ago,a big strong red dog.he was used mainly day time catching foxes with the beagles.he was a good one,still catching when he was 10 or 11.best of luck with your pup.

For those that read my post back in February about being taken in for police questioning over a suspected lamping incident, we have just had the charges dropped in court.
We attended last Friday and it was adjourned for 7 days due to lack of evidence. Today the case was dropped.
They saw us walking off a public footpath with lamps and dogs. No game had been run or caught.
They tried to throw the book at us and went for charges of "section 1 of the hunting act 2004" and also a separate charge under the dangerous dogs act for having out of control dogs.
Ludicrous considering the dogs didn't come off the leads.
We think they were just hoping we would submit an early guilty plea. Which of course we did not.
Result in my book. Roll on the season
Fair play to you lad.just goes to show how stupid and pointless the hunting act is.
-
We measure all ours by foxes caught.all this shit with inches to the shoulder is a load of shite.breeding and heart is everything.once the dog can run at a fair pace then height means nothing-if they really want to catch em they will!

fair play lad for helping out the bitch.there is no excuse for anyone treating a dog like that.the fact that she was dumped,she prob has her faults but fair play to you lad.
-
The videos are good to watch and have taken lots of hard work and time to record.I would not have the patience or skill to make a video and fair play to the lads that put them together.The dogs on video seem a bit quick to give up at the ditches,they wouldn't suit me but all the same the lads catch plenty.Fair dues to them.

Yes rabbits and hares are seen as prey by the dog. But a dog which genuinely hates foxes or cats acts completely differently.
It's a bit like an agressive dog straining and itching to get at another dog.
Not at all lad,i've a bitch here who at 15 months i ran out the lamp on her own on the first fox she really ever saw.She caught and killed him,no messin.This bitch is now nearly 3,is 100% single handed and has never shown a bad moment to any other dog.You are talking shite like most of the clowns that are active on this website.All the best.

Well, as they say bad publicity is better than no publicity.
I am not going to argue with anyone's opinion's on here, everyone is entitled to their own. I do want to clarify a couple of things:
1. Not a puppy farm. We have ideal whelping facilities as we have whelped other people's bitches for YEARS and we are very practiced at it. This is the first litter offered for sale with no more on the horizon any time soon.
2. Both dam and sire were brought in as young as possible and kept and trained here in Cork. Both are good workers. As the website says, you can see both of them and judge for yourself.
3. The price reflects the heritage of the parents and the amount of care and attention that goes into the parents as well as the pups. They are as healthy as you will find anywhere.
Oakfield Lurchers.
What a load of shite you talk.Heritage my arse and the parents of those pups are practically pups themselves,I'd say your standards of what is a good worker would be very low.There are much higher standard pups bred in cork from well tested parents and from well tested lines.Basically you are trying to sell worthless rubbish and are looking for 200 each,you must have a neck like a jockeys bollix.

Wat u sayin my dog is useless till he had a fox ?
No sonny,what i'm saying is the height of the dog means fuk all.its all about heart
-
Hi, my bitch should make 23 tts and the boy should make about 21 tts when I breed them I'm concerned that the male could may be cause the pups to turn out short? What size do u guys think pups will make tts? Thanks
I know you know nothing at all about foxes,but we measure a dog on foxes killed not their height.

did you ever get your springer/beagle,teagle pup you were after.i've one here bred by myself,wehave a pack of beagles and teagles and have 12 pups to start in sept,including that whole litter.If one of those would suit your welcome to take one,we have too many pups this year.They are well bred from proven stuff on foxes

The man who cut those tails is an ape.It would make you think the man who bred them is probably fairly green and that would make you wonder how well bred they are.Maybe I am wrong and no offence meant to the man who owns the pups.
