    The American market seems to be the best available.

    Your wanting to keep the size up yet don,t want Saluki or Deerhound blood in the mix?.As Ireland as the cream of Greyhounds and you dismiss two of the best ways of gaining size in a lurcher i feel you will be better suited to rearing something in a vegetable patch.

    If you honestly believe there is only one dog thief in a country that as little in moral values then i feel sorry for your naivety and ignorance.On this side of the Atlantic pond we share an hatred of any fecking scum that would thieve a dog,a dog is relatively cheap to source and is readily available,most of the time,the scum that find it easier to steal a dog, than spend a small amount of dosh to buy their fecking own,are despised over here on a level you may fail to really understand.I sincerely hope the mush gets his kids dog back,i more sincerely hope the fecking trash that nicked it are

    Id source yourself a small hound cross,Beagle-Spaniel combo.It will suit more than a terrier.As you don,t have the experience to deal with a terrier dropping in id not contemplate one and a small houndy type will do all you want and will easily train to your requirements.

    Over 25 years ago i know of some hatched imported eggs,ok smuggled,a few of the chicks from that hatching sold for considerably more than £300

    As ive never been involved with a grooming gang,never drove a taxi or sponged off the state and never let a Priest stand behind me,it proves im a good Catholic.

    Ive purposely given up on the mention of the jukel when somebody called me a plastic Pykey,geez that really boiled my urine,id rather be called a Muslim.

    My mate swapped a cob for a lurcher pup off a site in Bradford a few decades ago,the cob was worth about £1.50,the lurcher made a decent enough mutt.My taste for fowl is more cuisine based now,im not saying id still eat a lurcher.

    Hybrid vigour rescues many a first cross breeding,it has a massive impact on the pups working potential and is responsible for rescuing what should in reality be a waste of puppy flesh.Most breeds are not pure,the pedigree of any mutt is ink on paper,there are some right unscrupulous pen owners,especially when the till tinkles.

    That bird would poosibly cost more than the average lurcher pup

    The vast,vast majority of Beddy lurchers are bred from Non earth working Bedlingtons,usually more KC than anything else,ALL Bedlingtons have something else in the mix and i fail to understand the stance on pure KC working dross over A crossbred terrier that is more Bedlington,in conformation and work ethic than the vast,vast,vast majority of KC ribbon and dollar bred terriers.Ive read through this thread and it seems only the Beddy side of the Breeding is cause for concern and ridicule,if i ever bred a lurcher the dam and sire where as important.Hybrid vigour plays a massive part in the potent

    the front dog looks heavily Saluki based and the rear dog Borzoi,even though they look like littermates?,handsome fecking things.

    I very much doubt that the folk that inspired me would be known to anybody on here,the main reason i was inspired to be inspired was my friendship with a mush that kept his kennel full of terriers that served more recognised Dales terrierfolk,they used him to keep a terrier or three that they would not wish to be known in the mainstream.Old george Appleton is unbeknown to the vast majority on here,The time he gassed himself on a sett,was involved in the last otter hunt on the Aire,climbed a tree to wreck a carrion crow nest,at 65 and had to be rescued by the fire brigade,lent my Beddy bitch an

    Id rather watch them grow old than watch them die young,its replacing the fecking things.

    Some of the most reliable breeding is father to daughter,mother to son etc.id breed that way rather than other routes.

    Shoot the fur and let the feather fly past.

    If the snake as a tendency to bite above the height of the boots id state they are protective to bites from a snake,honestly try them out and get bit,if im wrong get your aunty to sue the manufacturer.Who was it that said yanks are thick as mud?Reagan,once O,reagan,enough said.

    The lurcher is a national cur,it turns up in the most advantaged and disadvantaged kennel,it circumnavigates the class divide even though its recognised as a working class jukel.its recognised as the elite fur,feather and pest controller in a sporting sense,a more mercenary take on the killing of animals would advocate the use of a gun,trap or snare.The majority of lucher folk that i have affinity with enjoy the hunt and chase more than the end result,with the gun,trap or snare we lose the romance many lurcher owners warm to.

    That fecking thing is better dressed than me and im not even Australian.
  21. morton
    I give as well as id like to receive and respect any honest input,again owning a fecking lurcher is more about owning and enjoying the mutt at hand,or should be,than fecking numbers.Obviously visiting a site like this you may come under the misconception that numbers is a goal many of us seek,thats another negative misconception thats shooters like to portray,possibly in the same way folk believe shooters shoot and count later,as the majority of shooters would have to take their shoes and socks off to count ill take that with a pinch of salt that ill throw over the next pheasant i toss in a di

    Seriously you egoistic twat,its not about control,thats so fecking offensive,its about the time ,the moment,the experience in the field,the hunt and chase,mostly the hunt,the numbers have feck all to do with the reason for hunting,the main reason the lurcherman,woman, hunts is for the opportunity to test our charges and put into practice the endless hours of education we put into an animal we have an affinity with,an affinity that can never be measured with a ruler a twat like you could ever measure.If i wanted numbers id set snares,or get a gun and become a feckwit like you.
  23. morton
    You son are a fecking liar.Hopefully we will have the opportunity to discuss the matter at some time.
  24. morton
    You do all your slavver from the safety of your inebriation and the keyboard,visit the fecking shop and put some stubble on your gonads.
