I live out here mate, would be good to get a group together out here for it though , it’s well worth the trip. not the best pics but a couple I got from last year

The championship is being held in Nava del rey, Valladolid, January 2024. Don’t think the exact dates have been released yet. I’ll be taking a drive up there myself. There will be the eights, quater finals, semi’s and then the finals. if you get to the eights or quarters there will be more dogs running so will get to see more runs. It’s a good day out, free entry, big beer tent

Went up to the “octavos” last Sunday, the broken coated bitch was knocked out that day. She’s the second in from the left

A man I follow on Instagram in Australia crosses stumpy tail cattle dogs with whippets for finding and baying boars, has a small pack of them

Sounds similar to mine, although I’ve not done as much with her as I’d hoped, had her out with some podenco packs and she is nervy at first but is ok once there’s a bit of action she starts to relax, she’s been reared on a remote farm and with Covid regulations out here as well, as a pup she didn’t get to see many other dogs so more down to that I think. Great nose marked warrens from the first time she went ferreting, and is always flat out finding and flushing partridge, great for the type of ground here, it’s rough and she’s never had a single problem with her feet

I have been thinking about setting something up for dog lads from the uk for a while, There are red, fallow, ibex, mouflon, wild boar and the odd roe in the hills around here

If it went over a racey lurcher with a bit of bull in I’d have one, I like my Kelpie that I got off jigsaw have gelled with her really well.

A bar in Albacete, the walls are full of galago and ferreting pictures

-3, I wish ?, I’m in Castile-La Mancha, near Albacete, the national galgo coursing finals are sometimes held at albacete

Ibex

Mine is turning out as I had hoped, Comes with me everywhere, she can go all day, But just lays quietly if there’s not much going on, Strong desire to work and hunt, can be a bit nervy sometimes
