  1. Nice one FP. Enjoyed reading the posts you have put up of him over the years. Hope he enjoys his semi retirement!
  2. I’m in the same boat. My busher is spaniel terrier so doesn’t go far. My Lurchers range so I’m going to invest in a pair
  3. Like them. Do they range out at all?
  4. For edible game they would do you right. Mine lamp, bush, ferret and are not too bad at working the hills. I don’t think it’s down to the breed because I’ve seen a few types do the same type of work.
  5. All depends if you get on with saluki type dogs. Most things crossed with 3/4 greyhound should do ok on most things. Depends on the breeding and how you bring them on. Both my runners have saluki in them. My dog is 1/4 saluki x grew with about 1/8 collie. Bitch I’m not sure about percentages. Both totally different dogs to train and totally different out in the field. They do me though ?
  6. What the rabbits? Yeah was on your permission mate ?
  7. Are you after a pure terrier or happy with a bit of a mix?
  8. He looks a cracking little thing. I think prices are going to stay hi. Saying that there are still plenty of decent dog people out there that will gift or sell for a sensible amount.
  9. Nice to see a different type of cross working fur and feather. Looks a nice type.
  10. No deal ?. Let me know when you are down Dartmoor way again
  11. That’s the way I want to go in a few years. Couple of beagle x spaniel terrier types and couple of Lurchers. I’ve got enough ground for a couple of hounds but not the space at the house. ?
  12. Couldn’t ask more from a ferreting dog. Looks a nice type too.
  13. I thought the same. My old man works out there a lot and one of the places there is a pack of them. He speaks to the guy most mornings and he sent me some pictures. I asked if they were going on a boar hunt but the said no we are hunting rabbit. Trailer had about 15 dogs in. That’s how they do it. They all meet in a local bar later on in the day and have a decent craic.
  14. I’m hoping to head over and have a look. My old man works out there now and then. He’s not really into his hunting but he sees The hunt meet on a morning. When he’s in the North it’s podenco and hound types that head out. When he’s in other areas then it’s coursing. He’s been to see a couple of events. He says they are a friendly enough bunch. ?
  15. Reckon something will come up in the summer. I will be looking at similar cross in a few years. Something to range out a bit on the hills. Has foxpack not got a litter on the way?
  16. How old is the sire mate? He used for similar as your bitch?
  17. I wouldn’t call going missing for 3 days hunting on! ??
  18. I’d like a little whippet or whippet x type for my boys to work.
