  1. Heard all the talk of "world beaters"and "flying machines"! Got fed up of hearing about them (usually in the pub) so I say to them let's get a day or night out. And 9 out of ten are left completely embarrassed with there hopeless mutts either there jacking, nowhere near as quick as they make out or attacking stock! Needless to say they then give it up after taking a well deserved ribbing! That's my experience with bullshitters. Get out with them and there not long in shutting up. Atb
  2. When your raising a pup do you ever get the feeling that it's not going to be up to the job early on? Just it's character, mannerisms and the way it goes about stuff, Some may have a complete turnaround and amaze you but how many have proved your instincts right?
  3. Hi I am looking for a Wheaton cross lurcher, I have own various types of crosses but this is one that I haven't and I am very intrested in them so if anyone has any pups or a litter planned could they let me know. Thanks
  4. I'm am on the lookout for a Wheaton cross lurcher pup or older. If anyone is due a litter or breeding worker to worker soon or know of anyone with this type if they could pm me the some info it would be appreciated. Thanks
  5. I watched that mate! One of the most intresting programes iv ever seen. How clever was that collie lol
  6. Unbelievable!! It's like back in the playground. Who gives a f##k what someone else does or works with there dogs. If you go out with earthdogs only and you have a good line that you always use what does it matter if someone from the other end of the country who you will probably never meet anyway wants to take them for rabbits or rats or whatever. I use my terriers for HUNTING!! If someone has a terrier doing 100 foxes a season, (a good bit more than I could). I DON'T CARE. I concentrate on what I do and what I get enjoyment from and If everyone else would do the same they'd probably be alot
  7. Why height and chest span is he? Does he get to ground easily? Just a bit Doubtful with no trial tho
  8. If it does the job il have it!! No matter how ugly or how showy. Iv had a few crosses but wouldn't discriminate any because every dog is different with different temperaments. If the proper time is put in and is entered properly an it won't do then that's not to say none of that type wont either.
  9. Has he been digging or been dug to? How many has he had? Whats the reason for the sale?
  10. Does anyone use chudleys working dog?
  11. I heard something about using a pinch bar? Fairy new to this game so all I kinda kno about just now is the modern ways. Thanks get your ear to the ground and listen for any noice from your dog, baying, bumping, etc, and were you can hear it loudest you dig and just hope your ontop of the dog
  12. Can anyone regimens a good complete food for terriers? I am feeding chudleys worker just now but it's making there crap a bit runny
  13. How do you do it without a locator out of intrest?
  14. My dogs are not greedy dogs, I feed them when they get in from there evening walk but they just pick at it till the next morning even then there's some left.
  15. Iv tried the sprinkling of salt but there still coming in along the Walls! Driving me mad as the food bowls are covered in slime every morning. I heard fill a bowl of beer and sit it next to the kennels ( where dogs can't get to it obviously) the slugs are attracted to it and, they drink round the edge and fall in and drown.
  16. September for me, out tonight and checked some earths but no scents or nothing. Still to warm so there out and about making the most of it.
  17. a good daytime hare course got me most excited, I'm that sad that I dreamt about them every night before going the next day haha. After that I would say a good nights lamping on the rabbits then daytime hunting up foxes. The deer never really did it for me but if I bumped into one tho I wouldn't hold the dog back
  18. Pre ban for all the guys who had the all rounders, your dogs took all quarry, what got you the most excited? A good nights lamping for rabbits? Seeing your dog firing into foxes? A good hare course or a good day out for the deer?
  19. Hi Vixen, Are you willing to part with one copy of the book, I would be interested in buying. P3D. Edited to add; Jumped in too quickly, maybe obi2 would wants a copy, its his post. But if he does not, I am still interested. you asked first p3d so you are welcome mate. thatks for the posts about the books, iv got 3 borders and i love reading books about working dogs, makes it a better read if you own the type your reading about. atb
  20. Haha that's what I like to hear, mine stood at 22 inch and very lightly built. Got it for rabbits but after it's first encounter with fox it couldn't care for rabbits again! All it wanted was to catch foxes!!
  21. I think the deerhound cross was quite popular for foxes
  22. What crosses, types of lurchers or sighthounds have you seen or owned that destroyed foxes and fired right into them that had no bull in there make up pre ban? I had a whippet cross collie grey that was crazy for foxes, didn't really have the power itself to kill them and took a bit of punishment but never dettered it
