    He spontaneously combusted mate.

    I've signed it Sika, since I do believe coursing has a role to play in conservation, but it might go a bit faster if coursing supporters didn't generally act like assholes towards anyone with a lurcher.

    Most types of meat with some bone is good. When I lived in Lincolnshire I used to buy a whole cow tripe from lincoln slaughterhouse once a week. If you've got time then try asking at greyhound tracks who supplies meat, ask at meat processing plants and slaughterhouses for scraps, lamb ribs etc. These days I buy a ten kilo box of chicken necks from the chicken processing factory once a week for a fiver. I bag them in five or six bags and feed rabbit or fish some days for a change. Lidl sell good strong freezer bags cheaply. I like to feed it raw but sometimes cook rabbits to mix with meal.

    Don't do that, you'll have no lips left by Monday. Maybe get sarcasm management classes.

    Rough coat or smooth doesn't really affect working ability but a lot of people still have a sneaky liking for a pretty looking rough one.

    This is a 1st x collie grey I had in the 80s. He could jump clear over the top of my head but if he misjudged the approach he'd claw my head!

    Spindolero, are you joking here or what's the story?

    That'll be one of those 100 yard slips then.

A bit contrived if you ask me.

    Did you ever tell Chartpolski about that?
  13. Maximus Ferret
    No the dog was never returned mate..sick as a parrot at the time as the bitch was turning into a bit of a machine but hey ho we keep at it lol.. Did you find out whether she was rehomed or PTS? I suppose they wouldn,t tell you that.

    I use a 14ah lithium pack with a blitz variable. Using the variable power I use as little light as I can get away with when lamping rabbits and it's never run out yet.

    What is the breeding behind this one? She's off "johndog", a mix of different border collies and bearded collies and greyhounds. On paper she's 9/16ths greyhound and the rest mixed collie.

    Have you a Hancock dog then Bunnys? I thought you had all german shepherd crosses.
  20. Maximus Ferret
    Since Woz likes mali temperament I think he'd be happier with that than with a collie cross.I've nothing against Hancock dogs either. I own one myself. This is her lamping catch two nights ago:- When all's said and done Hancock dogs are collie crosses. Obviously very different from malinois.

    It won't be long before they're banned anyway when national newspapers print articles like this:- http://www.irishexaminer.com/archives/2012/0818/opinion/cub-hunting-and-netting-of-hares-far-from-sports-ideal-204509.html They'll start to panic and look for support then but after it's banned the hares won't be worth anything to them. It's easy for people brought up in the countryside to get a false idea of public opinion since they only mix with people like themselves. The population has changed a lot since the celtic tiger and it's my belief that there're more townies now than country people

    At least when clonmel is on you're less likely to meet these feckers. Only advice I can offer is to park outside the farmhouse whenever possible, take reg numbers if possible and see if you can find one of these cheap http://www.trail-camera.co.uk/Trail-Camera.htm to watch your car. It might not stop them wrecking it but it gives you some proof of who did it. Local guards can be like the redneck sheriff in american movies but if you have evidence and complain higher up you might get some action.

    Hi Old school, I've bred pups in the past but wouldn't like to now unless I really wanted one from my bitch. The most I charged then (early eighties to nineties) was 25 or 30 quid but if I was buying now I'd happily pay 150 to 200. You had no problems with your litters and you had a cheap food supply. I had parvo appear in a litter of terrier pups and had veterinary fees, a couple of dead pups, and several sleepless nights spooning a teaspoon of water into each pups mouth every hour. I don't like the responsibility of breeding and then having dodgy people turn up at my house to take pups I'v

    Agreed!!!

    I've paid from £20 to £200 but might pay more for something from special breeding. I know a lot of people think pups should be gifted but I've bred one or two litters in the past and I firmly believe that a breeder should get something to cover rearing and allow for any vet treatment that might be needed. I think £150 to £200 a pup is a fair price.
