My old man is over in Spain working. The local hunt meet each week with various hounds and running dogs. They head into the hills hunting hare he thinks. I’m going to try get a day with them the next time I go and visit. Nice racey animals them Sandymere. Would be good to see them running up on the open moor. ?

Will do. Keep in touch and send me a reminder in April. Will look at a couple of dates over the summer ?
-
For my next busher I will prob go more on the terrier side. Would like to put him to a decent bushing terrier bitch next year and keep a pup back.

He’s a spaniel x terrier mate. Mix of various spaniels and various terriers. He suites me for what I do. ?
-
Welcome mate. I will look to run one for guys off here over the summer. ?
-
Get it framed and keep it ?
-
Well done mate. Not a bad day that. Good to see Koda is still around. Hope Sean got on that shovel ?

Apart from the vitamin c and bone builder, what were you feeding on a daily basis? What was the pups general diet before you noticed this?

Gul is decent enough for what you want then. Wasn’t sure how experienced you were. It’s a case of getting out there and finding some decent fishing spots. I’m more of a kayaker than I am a fisherman. The two go hand in hand so I have started taking the rod when I head out. If I have a group on the water with me then they seem to enjoy it. Going to be concentrating more on the fishing over the summer. Looking to run some multi day trips, cook what you catch etc. It’s amazing going to places that no one else can get to to fish

Just seen your post mate. This time of year you would want to go along the lines of a dry suit. Nothing too expensive as you are not in and out the water. It’s just a case of if you did fall in!! Wind and cold are the main things that will ruin your day. I wear a dry suit with a thermal layer underneath. Nothing too over the top otherwise you will over heat. It’s hard to take layers off once you are afloat. Trail and error really. Decent sock under the suit and some cheap/old trainers (allow a couple of sizes up) they will then fit the socks and drysuit socks without being too tight. I have tr

Spot on. I know saluki blood isn’t for everyone but a dash of it can make a bit of difference. On the higher up open ground the dogs with a bit of saluki or deerhound in them seem to cover the ground a bit different. I’m no expert though.

Are these the only type of lurcher you keep foxpack?
-
I haven’t noticed loads being turned out on here. The usual lads that breed do so for their mates and to keep a couple back for themselves. When I was looking I had a few offers and they were all from decent lads who were breeding for the right reasons. Can’t ask any fairer than the offer from foxpack if that’s the type you are looking for.

Advice needed; good vet/bone man near Devon

Been called a lot worse! Wise words from Phil.....as always. Hope she’s up and running for you soon. -
Took me a couple of years to convince myself to get one. Would never be without one now. ?
-
He would be out all day every day if he could. Work get in the way so you can only do your best. A couple of local lads take him out hunting if I’m away with work.
-
He suits me str. Doesn’t range too far. Great little busher and works well with the ferrets. To be honest I need to give him more work than he gets.

Your house your rules!

Just out of interest, does any one know of any small Bobery packs in the North Wales area? I wouldn’t mind a day out. I have a decent amount of land to go at.

Little belter that

Nice one Joe. You look a lot younger without the beard ?

Looks like a nice walk out. Pup looks to be shaping up nicely

Good to get out as always mate. Some good runs and it was great to see how much Fergie has come on. Good to see Martha still has the edge. Hard work for her on them big fields but the old girl always surprises us! -
Already done that one Ken!!! She came for a trip up to North Wales......she enjoyed it ?
