  1. dunc i like the little guy you decided to put at the end, reminds me of what id be like if i was fed bullshit by them :L once i sort out a few other things, this month it should be all sound an all so i shall give you a shout mate , you been out lately? and hows ya pup?
  2. thats where a 1/4 of collie is only need, so reckons my old man, but im not saying first crosses are bad, and as for the bull x hes only had one lurcher, which was lurcher to lurcher bred, with the smallest amount of bull in it, and he was a good dog, butthen he hates bull x's as most are dick extensions and most are useless..his words not mine
  3. yeah thats the book i was on about mate, goes over everything, but doesnt bore you ,kept plain an simple mate, atb rob
  4. and general maintainance of working dogs...this is why jackies book aint too bad, gives you an insight to all that needs to be thought about, and its not a bulging book to bore you to death
  5. im not saying i believe and do everything down to a T with what they say in books, but give everyone a general look in into what breed (temperemant) they like, and what that dog will do for them..dont get me wrong, getting out and stuck in is far better than sitting at home reading 101 books, but i think it does help knowing what dog your choosing, and how to enter them correctly, this avoids dogs be passed about, dont you agree?
  6. how much would a hw80 ruffly be going for? scratches on the stock, took back to the metal on the barrel etc due to rust..needs abit of tlc of the innerds too..how much roughly?
  7. and by crap groupings or certainly not pellet on pellet groupings, it could of been down to you, but its not
  8. id take it back, if youve done this twice, he is obviously pulling the wool over your eyes, he might not be, but to me it sounds like hes doing so, i wouldnt say much if at first it was crap groupings, but you said they were pellet on pellet, and now for some reason its not, just by filling it, and he thinks its fine, id still take it back, and the more you mess with it, itl void your warranty mate, atb
  9. if i had only just bought the gun i would just take it back
  10. ger mckenna on greyhounds.john martin sighthounds their history,management and care and understanding the working lurcher, by jackie which goes through choosing one,training, entering,fitness,permission,care and maintainance,breeding your own worth a read mate
  11. What is in the breeding of your pup Ellis? Some breeds such as Deerhounds take much longer to develop and it's therfore advisable to hang fire with such dogs where as some smaller types Beddy x's etc: can often be started much younger if thats your way? ATB Andy. i have a dh gh x collie gh and as you see in the pic, is like a greyhound but with deerhound mentality, chilled, low hanging head and her temperament (with abit of fire in the belly at times) lol shes butcher than bitch greyhounds, well the few iv seen, shes 29tts, and this is why iv hanged back with her, yet her siblings all mad

  13. i know a few boys who do this "il shoot my dog if it doesnt do it "etc attitude, and when it comes down to it, they havent got the minerals, its not that i have or havent, its the fact that i wouldnt. its a load of bollocks! utter f****n bollocks..i hope she does come on, and i got a funny feelings shes going to be a cracking bitch, but she hasnt caught atall yet, due to lack of time out with her atm, but most the lads i know would and i know they would of passed her on to another dick, or "shoot it" as they like to make out..but i dont want to rush her..anyway back on subject, i wouldnt give
  14. this topic have occured a few times, and the only thing i can say, is do it the way you want too, asking everyone on this site will just result into an argument ..or better still get a good book or two, and see what they say, theyve had dogs for years and bred there own dogs etc, im sure all the books or stuff iiv read have stated to let your dog be a pup..and let it mature..thats the way iv done it, you can only ruin a dog by rushing it? but iv never heared of ruining a dog because youve held it back?...running young dogs to early will f**k them up, and i know you havent said you have, im jus
  15. some tidy pics keep them coming
  16. i dont know about anyone else, but iv shot rabbits in daytime standing no rest and rested (fence post etc) , only a few due to getting in a better position, but when the oppertunity arrises id take a standing shot..im not saying im an amazing shot im just stating a fact, that aslong as you use correct movement of both wind and yourself, a 6ft 15 stone guy can go un noticed sometimes, so if this can be achieved, no doubt the sitting position is more effective or just effective..woodies can spot you just aswell and all them have been standing no rest..i find sometimes with a springer, that rest
  17. most of the owners dogs time was either training or field trails by the sounds, where othere men with collie x's spent majority of there time out catching, someone has always had a better dog and a bigger dick lol its the rules when you sign up to the forum isnt it? but everyones entitled to there opinion, and my bitch got 1/4 collie, and she seems to be fine...eager as f**k, and havent given up on anything just yet...il let you know when she does, thats if she does atb lol
  18. but then the same people say that about bullxs mate lol each to there own i suppose
  19. depends what breed mate, my bitch has only been out a couple of times, and she 18months coming on 19months..but shes 29tts, and still has abit of maturing to do yet, deerhound type lurchers or larger type lurchers tend to need longer for there bodys to properly form..atb mate
  20. i have a dh/gh x collie ggh..and in due time, not yet by any means , probably be putting something whippety over her..whip/grey maybe or just a whippet, atleast 21tts though,should bring her size down a tad..why not go for sal/grey ?atb
  21. what about a collie greyhound x bull greyhound? my old man has seen plenty of bull x's over the years that have jacked an all..he reckons for fox you cant beat dhx greyhound, and for everything
  22. i dont have to admit f**k all, i dont own one myself. just like them and want to see other peoples, what dog you got then?
  23. if you think that then no need to read the thread, so f**k off
  24. lets see everyones whippets, hardly ever hear of the little shits unless someones running them down, lets see some pics up
