  1. Retirement. Posted August 17, 2019 AdminHancock It is with great sadness that we have decided to retire from breeding our lurchers. We have deliberated over this for some time, we are all getting older and under the current climate now is the right time to call it a day. We have been breeding lurchers for 37 years and we have enjoyed every one of them. We have met some wonderful people from all walks of life in that time and the tales that we could tell are many. But as you know “All good things must come to an end”. We would like to take this opportunity to say “Thank

  11. Thanks for the reply real shame about the injury i hope he continues to progress and do well for you.When this old bedlington goes i am edging my bets towards a whippet for ferreting and general mooching. Good luck for the coming season.
  12. i like the look of him Stormy. Does he hunt up well and is he a good marker?
  13. It must have been a hell of a good experience well done.
  14. Khaki campbell ducks 300 eggs plus a year.
  15. A old fella near me never kept a lurcher snaring and trapping was his mainstay work. But he also used a dog for marking when ferreting retrieving shot night time phesants and for working bramble patches with stop and poke nets. When i look back it was a opporntunity missed as i only went a few times out ferreting with him in the 80s. i could have learned a fair bit from him but was too intrested in seeing dogs run. He only ever kept springers.
  16. I recall seeing the old fella in a episode of a johnny kingdom programme relocating hares caught in longnets. They relocated hares all over the country for years longnetting.
  17. He used greyhounds instead of lurchers
  18. One of my favourite fighters who i think didnt reach his true potential. Was good with his head also.lol.
