The branchers started to appear up here about 10 days ago,a lot of them are on the wing now. 20 years ago we wouldnt expect them to appear untill the 15th of May.

Have got to agree with most of what's been said I find it hard going to find two articles worth reading Don't really want to read,"how to feed a lurcher"-"coat colour in a lurcher"-"what's best, smooth or rough coats?"-how to keep a rabbiting terrier fit during the summer" etc etc. Good question Chalkwarren,what do we want? I would prefer more articles about lurchers and ferrets doing what they were bred to do,work Would prefer less articles telling you how to do it and more on getting out there and actually doing it It might be worth dropping the CMW an email and l

For lurcher work on rabbits you won't go wrong with a lazerlight. Have to agree with you OTC regarding the amount of light,you can definately have too much

why do you reckon the pups will be heavy using a pure whippet but wont using a pure greyhound ???????? I was a bit slow in getting back to you socks,I couldn't have put it any better than shep.
-
You've asked for opinions so here's mine. I wouldn't mate the two of them together,I think most of them will turn out heavy set.But then again you don't say what you want the pups to do when they are older. If you are keen on breeding from the dam it might be a better idea to put a greyhound over her,of course that would increase the height of the pups.

Webbing between toes keeps splitting.
tote replied to highlander's topic in Working Dog Health & Training Talk
Highlander it might be worth it to try and support the damaged webbing with a bit of rubber ring cut from a bicycle tube,about 1/4" thick and put round the two toes If it was the middle toes I would get the webbing cut out,but with it being the outer toe I would expect to have problems like the toe dislocating or even breaking as there would be too much pressure on it without the web -

Scotty keep your chin up mate and get rid of those negative thoughts In both your posts you've made negative comments-"COULD IT BE HE JUST DOESN'T WANT TO RETRIEVE" and "I THINK I MIGHT BE ON A LOSER" The easy option is to give up Stick at it mate you'll get there in the end,I start all my lurcher pups retrieving training at an early age,from 8 weeks on. Try doing the retrieve training in an enclosed area like a hallway,or if the pup is bigger an alleyway,block off one end,that's the end you stand at this stops the pup from running behind you. It's not unusual to hit proble

The two rifles i've got are both .22 calibre but that's not through choice Saying that I do kill quite a few rabbits with them If i'd had the chance to choose which calibre i'd opt for a .177,reasons being flatter trajectory,faster [800+fps] and the pellet drops less after 30 yards compared to a .22.

The first lady said, "I don't know bout y'all, but I'm gunna wear me some hot pink panties beefo I gets on dat plane." "Why you gonna wear dem fo?" the other two asked. The first replied, "Cause, if dat plane goes down and I'm out dare laying butt-up in a cornfield, dey gonna find me first." The second lady said, "Well, I'm a-gonna wear me some flooresant orange panties." "Why you gonna wear dem?" the others asked. The second lady answered, "Cause if dis hareplane is goin' down and I'm floating butt-up i

--> QUOTE(Dawn B @ Apr 15 2007, 02:16 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Eh? How can they do that, I mean know when she will come in? Never heard of that before, unless it is a new drug of course. Best of luck. dawn. The vet probably meant the bitch had to be jagged BEFORE she came into season,not the day before she came into season. Any greyhound bitches I have in for racing get jagged when they first arrive then once a month after that. I have found out from past experience that jagging a bitch when she is due her season only pospones it.In other words as soon as the ja

What is the maximum fill pressure for the rifle beagles?
-
You maybe have allready,but if you haven't take your bitch to a specialist greyhound vet. At least then you will get a proper diagnosis It's an amazing sight watching these specialists going over a running dog.

Multicare cut-heal heals from the inside-out,but even when the wound looks healed the tissue will not be at full strength,so a bit more time should be allowed to let the skin knit together properly.
