  1. Yep. Will have the fishing kayaks out from April so the freezer will be stocked up from then. Hope the dog sorts the eating habits!
  2. Yep he will eat kidney, heart,liver and tripe. I normally give fish that I have caught but have run out at the mo so that's why I get from tesco.
  3. Yeah sorry joe got Carried away there with all the questions!! Will pass it back onto you now
  4. Anything that breathes mate Fed quite a few lambs hearts in the last week though, so maybe thats contributed. He is a fussy f*cker at times but the last week he has been putting it away, with plenty of excercise. Hasn't been easy but starting to pay off People said that to me but I wasn't happy to leave him hungry. I feed raw as well. I mixed it in with some tinned sardines ( tesco value) he soon started eating it. I introduces offal slowly as it give him the shits. Small amount of liver/heart/ tripe. He eats like a horse now!
  5. Thanks bird. They are saluki collie grey x 5/8 3/8 grew.
  6. Yeah 25 would be good for me Ross. Dam was 23" sire 24".
  7. Sure will. 25" will suit me but hopefully no bigger!!
  8. Robs. I just sent you a pm mate. I'm after some info. Cheers
  9. thats ideal, fair play.. glens the same, likes to f**k about all the time, whats yours like for jumping about? wee f****r has some spring/jump when mucking around, just checked, hes bang on 23 1/2.. Yeah he won't leave other dogs alone if they show him some attention but sometimes I forget he's only just over 6 months. The lads who I go out with dogs are focused on the job so he just follows them! I havnt taught him to jump at all but the other day he cleared a fence no bother and is always bouncing around. He picked up a little niggle the other day chasing another dog so he's staying on the
  10. Cheers. He was good Joe. Easy to break him to them. This was his second time with them also using stop nets so no big runs for him. He worked along side my mates dogs. Because he's young he messed about with them to start but once he realised what it was all about he was steady and got a couple in the nets and one bolter before it hit the nets which he retrieved so I was well happy. I havnt pushed his training at all and just let him be a pup but to be honest it's def second nature to him. He's going to be quick. Surprised at his size too he's already bigger than Lola at 23 1/2 tts. How tall i
  11. Same here mate I own his brother. He would run all day if you let him. Had him out ferreting a couple of times but taking it easy too. Some nice open ground up there that should suit him.
  12. It was tricky Sean because for some reason our side of the hedge was knee deep in mud!! Only had the chance to take a few pics because our side were pretty busy setting up purse nets and dispatching all the rabbits we were catching!! Will ask Kev if I can go on your side next but he will probably say no incase I pick up any bad habits!!
  13. Cheers Vin. He's been a treat so far. He's just over 23" at 7 months so hopefully he will stop growing soon!! Hard to keep the weight on him but he's now filling out. Those pics were his second time out with the ferrets and he did really well. Chip off the old block!
  14. Was a great day lads and I think Blue learnt a lot! Here's a few more I took with the phone.
  15. As said mate get yourself some decent wormers. The ones from off the shelf don't do the job. I had the same problem with my pup. I feed raw so I got a decent wormer and increased the feed, especially the mince meat. Maybe try add a bit of pasta to the mix?
  16. I just text Shaun. Can't believe the pup is a better shot than him with the air rifle at 12 weeks!!! She's in good hands there. See you at the end of the month lads.
  17. Penny Taylor 'skycat' has put a decent article in the CMW Christmas edition. There's a few different views. A point she brought up was if the dog has been grafting then don't feed a big meal straight after and recommended a small high fat/protein feed followed by the big feed the next day. Suppose it all depends on what time you start and finish lamping? And as some on here work there dogs a more nights than not then when would they find time to feed! Personally once my pup is up and running next season I will feed the morning before, a small meal when I get in from lamping and a big feed the
  18. Looking good now Nigel and really taking shape! Will get out for a walk soon. Will give you a bell
  19. Like you said she went everywhere with you!! She never left your side all day and I reckon we did a good 15 miles.
  20. Gutted for you mate. She was a lovely dog and my lad was really upset when I told him the news. We were looking forward to a walk out with you on the weekend. See you on Sunday for a beer.
