    Cheers Gaz. Been a pain and not ideal timing with bringing the pup on but we will get there and plenty of time yet!

    Well after I ended up under the knife at the start of January I finally got to take the dog out for a decent leg stretch.....I needed it more than him!! Went on the bike as I'm still on crutches but at least he had a good run around with some other dogs. Have been doing basics with him in the garden and mates have been walking him. Was good for the 2 of us to get out again though. Steady exercise for us both over the summer and be good to go for the season. 9 months sal/collie grey x grew.

    There's lads on here from that area that should help you out. Maybe put a fresh post up for help in s yorks area. Good luck

    Nice pup. You seem to be doing alright by her already with covering the basics. Best advice I could give is see if there's anyone decent in your area who's willing to take you out and offer advice. Get her out ferreting after the summer and steady start on the lamp. Where abouts are you?

    Nice pup that mate. Pretty much same mix as mine. Time soon flies and my pup is 9 months already. Enjoy bringing her on she looks cracking!!

    Just watched the 1030 news/spotlight. They do need to get their facts straight. They seem to be more bothered with people putting vids up on line!! Not a bad pair of dogs though.....

    It's a Cracking day out though!! Good walk out for everyone and plenty of fresh air in Gods country!! Good pics there. Lung buster going up and slippy as hell coming down I bet. Did you treat yourself to a bacon butty at the Storey Arms after?

    Spotlight is our local West Country BBC news. 630-7 and again tonight at about 1030 I think. Will watch it and send a email.

    Good tip that skycat. Mine comes to me in need of washing/rinsing and as part of that I can check there's nothing in there that shouldn't be!! havnt found staples in there yet but have found small pieces metal/plastic

    KRAWNDEN he is training him for gun dog and lurcher work. Can't wait to see him work next season. He's in the right hands I have know this guy since I was a kid and he's always there when I need advice.
  16. white van man
    I will be seeing him over the summer Phil. Will keep you posted. He knows his stuff and been training dogs for years and isn't one to boast. Will see you in Salisbury soon hopefully.

    Heard a few people say they had poodle/grey and pretty game dogs krawnden? Rare x though Mine was shaping up to be a great allrounder, but unfortunately got killed on the road aged 21 months, so in all fairness I couldn't say he'd been thoroughly tested. But he was fast, agile, had good coat and feet and used his nose well. Was great with ferrets and sensible around the nets, had taken daytime hare, muntjac and roe and had retrieved his first goose from the water (I do a bit of wildfowling). It's also a distinct possibility that he caught the very last legal hare in this country - or at the

    Yeah I'm taking it easy with him D. Been having trouble with my ankle and had to have it operated on. 2 1/2 month on crutches which isn't ideal. Had people walking the pup for me and I have been cracking on with the basics. Get some funny looks standing in a field with my crutches! Mainly wear and tear with the ankle but having to carry Kev around everywhere hasn't helped!! He doesn't like getting his new boots dirty when we are out lamping. Hope your well?

    I wouldn't rush it mate. Mine is jumping now but at 6 months he had never jumped anything more than 2ft high. I give him the odd retrieve with a small jump in the way. I still only let him jump a few things at 8 months.

    Cheers bird. He's one of dean flutes litter.
  23. white van man
    Couldn't afford him dean so spent £7 on a book! You out with the pup this weekend?
  24. white van man
    I have been using that before I managed to get fresh stuff. It still smells and sais on package 100% but it's 90p a pack.

    I've always had collie based dogs so thought I might be in for a challenge. My pup only has 1/8 collie and 1/4 saluki but not had any of the problems people say.......unless they are still to come!! I read a few books and realised the ones that worked for me had nothing to do with lurchers. A dog is a dog and the basics are the basics I reckon which I wanted to get right before anything. I was recommended a book by a mate the other week called 'don't shoot the dog' wish I had read it a year ago instead of all the lurcher books. I think it was me that needed the most training!
