  1. Aye up all Iv got a 6 1/2 month old springer pup. And he has trouble putting weight on so he always looks slightly on the slim side. I'm feeding him on puppy food at the moment cos anything else seems to just go through him. Anyone else had this problem? Sam
  2. Just been to see my new spaniel. Can't wait to get him!
  3. I'm looking at getting a springer for rabbiting. I need a good marking dog that looks professional for taking to large estates with plenty of energy. I looked at lurchers but I think they can be abit hit and miss and like said on previous posts they can attract unwanted attention. Sam
  4. I tried to get one from there but they had all gone
  5. I'm having trouble getting one mate. I think the thing is just to hang in there and be patient. Good luck pal.
  6. Sort of prefer spaniels but I want a dog for the job. They are a investment that lasts about 12 years so I want the right one. Looks like a beddy whip it is. Sam
  7. Hi all Springer or 1st cross beddy whippet to take ferreting? What are your thoughts? Many thanks Sam
  8. I'm after ferreting partner/ marker and ratter. Not bothered so much about using the dog on the lamp. Iv was told that a 1st cross would be more suitable? any advice would be great. Don't want to end up with the wrong dog.
  9. Will have to track down a copy. Thanks
  10. Hi all hope u all had a good new year. I'm now actively looking for a 1st cross whippet bedlington pup. Please can u let me know if you hear of any going. I'm in north Yorkshire but will travel a reasonable distance no problem. Thanks for your time Sam

  13. Aye up all. I'm after a dog for general pest control. (I work in pest control for a career and a hobby) and I want a ratter and a rabbit marker. I'm not a terrier fan really so I thought about a whippet bedlington.?I prefer the rough haired look to smooth haired. Any thoughts on what dog to get? Iv had labs before but am completely new to lurchers so please forgive my ignorance. Thanks and have a very merry Christmas. Sam
  14. I have also been told that some gun dogs are good for marking sets but I can't imagine they are as good at ferriting as a lurcher would be?
  15. Was thinking about a collie x greyhound? Or a beddyx wippet or somthing like that
  16. Hi all I am thinking about getting a dog as a ferriting partner. Any sugestions on on what type? Anyone else use dogs as a ferriting aid? Thanks Sam

  18. what pups have you got Haven't picked one yet mate looking at a whippet x belington
  19. Do you think somthing like a lurcher might be more suitable?
  20. I'm working all kinds of terrain, it's tha nature of my job. I would be properly working it maybe a few times a week. It would also be able to wander around farms an estates with me. So I want this dog to live the life a lurcher should. Sam
  21. Having the same problem picking the right pup as well mate. Looks like a good dog what type is it?
  22. Sorry for all the questions but I am still very new to this. Thanks for all the replys would be lost otherwise
