Its always the easy route for you?.

Then monty python throws Katchpricks 3 seconds of expertise in,id rather own a few moments based in wisdom than a lifetime of katchums parental guidance.

you know me?

If I stopped working a sore terrier,id stop working them 2 weeks into the season.

would that be better than strong,unreliable donkey collars.?

You want to get yourself some easy weekend money and take tips as a tourist ape in Gibraltar.

Ill be as stupid as you want if it helps you get a pointless dig in,we know the same people and I'm comfortable.

Gafer was out of Donny,he came from good stock with his dad John and grafted the lurchers to a level even corvid could not reach.Fell out with this site because of all the shite,fell out with me because of the same,my regret.

Your recall is flawed,it was a Deerhoundy/collie lurcher.

Special needs always wants to be special.

One of the finest litters of obedient grafters I had the honour to own,enter and weep over was a litter of 13,i left the bitch with 5 and kept 4 for myself,it was the easiest litter ive ever trained,educated and entered.I kept 4 hoping to weed out the less desirable and at 11 months of age I reluctantly let 2 go,Gafer on here owned one through his dad and its progress told its own tale,its brother faired as well and the 2 I kept,eventually lost were as good in the field.That was a piss easy litter to educate at the same time and when ive had the fortune to educate only two it was twice as hard

If you owned 2 brain cells that got on you would be a very dangerous chimp.

I owned a red Bitch bred from digging royalty,we often went ratting early dawn to warm the terriers up for the real days work,i could not let her of the leash as she ate every rat she could sneak off with and was pot bellied and sleepy for the rest of the days more serious enterprise.
-
We often hold common ground,obviously there is a reason for that,the rest of the time we may have to disagree,always with a smile.
-
Ill leave that to you then son,ill warrant in your short ignorant lifetime you will have seen more than me.

I had 2 lads on an occupied hole refusing to enter their terriers because rabbits where seen entering,i entered mine,a very useful rat and bunny busher,we dug to the intended.The amount of times ive dug to rabbits with other peoples more educated terriers."its never happened before",bollocks.
-
And all of the best digging dogs ive seen saw life and gained valuable education.
-
Killing a rodent that weighs a few ounces is no test of a terriers worth in later life,yet a youthful terrier that refuses an easy rodent is a sign of the terriers future.An awful lot of folk with terriers want a little test for their sapling and a little rodent work is part and parcel of a terriers hunting education,fair enough its not a proper test but it is "part of the test" to many a kennel.If I owned a pup that refused an easy rodent id not be confident taking it to another level.The other aspects of early hunting is the socialisation of the mutt with other dogs and company.
-
If I wanted 2 pups to be obedient together id have wired them into the mains.When one jumps a wall the sibling follows,when one chases the sibling chases harder,when one is reluctant it loses its reluctant nature with sibling envy,when one is reluctant to strike it will enter its siblings strike with fervour.If I want obedience I eventually get obedience,if I want sibling rivalry and everything it offers ive no need to train for it.The finest lurchers ive entered had at least one sibling to compete with.
-
Id take 2 pups from a litter and bring them on together.Ive done it several times and it makes the training easier if anything.I find it far harder to train a single pup as the competitive nature of siblings often encourages development.
-
An awful lot of folk over here start a youngster with a cheat factor and if truth was told many a youngster gained its first rung on the ladder with an easy assist.id not take to much from a youngster bolting its first encounter that was more interested in bolting.

A prominent digging lad,LT was fed Magics at 14 to give him the stamina to walk off the moor,he was raving about massive red elephants chasing him,we tied him up and threw him into his door,his father never forgave me,until a few years later when the older son shot his mate with a 410 because of the mushroom influence,his mate had sore fingers and the dog he was holding died.You can,t make it up at times.
-
I fed the wife magics in an omellete,she could not stop laughing for hours,to get her own back she raided my stash and peeled the top off a steak pie,in the freezer. and mushroomed it.A while later she left me in charge of the kids and I made them chips,peas and steak pie,the wife came home to a mad house of mushroomed kids and their father.Possibly why one of them likes Bedlingtons.
-
I was once the magic guru.a reluctant large breasted female thought she was copulated by a purple cloaked roman gladiator because of the shrooms,the long walk home when I had to tie her to my dog leash made the moment drag on a little longer.In truth a knackered lurcher ran a tad longer with a shroom dosage and walked home when it should have been carried,fact.

Try it,Arthur Chester an old timer from Keighley swore by it,he chewed the leaf all his life and knew more about lurchers,especially Beddy lurchers than most,he cured a limping terrier for me by throwing into the river,it had a dislocated shoulder and the cold water and swimming popped the shoulder back and it swam out without a limp,i did not know about the dislocated shoulder before him,he did.I remember the time he stated a lurcher I owned wanted worming,id wormed it with the regular shite available at the time,he told me to hold it and spat brown chewing spittle down its throat and then to
