  1. The collars made by strong stuff do what they are made to do that is to hold your dog securely.Who gives a monkeys if ,in someones eyes,they look too big or they are the wrong colour or they are this and that .
  2. When i attended alot of hpr field trials in the early nineties i used to speak to nigel cox,who at that time,was THE man with field trial vizsla`s.He was then the only person to have "made up" a homebred vizla to FTCH.He said they were a lot softer in temperament than a gsp,a good bolloking would set them back a week,but with gentle handling they were superb.I think his kennel name was "vollata" but i will stand being corrected on that.There was a saying amongst the main field trial people at that time that went something like "i wouldn`t give ten bob for every weimar in the country".I only s
  3. Nearly fell off my chair.Superb :11: :11:
  4. All sorted now thanks :11:
  5. I have just got my daughter a ipod nano for christmas. "i will have a quick look at it " i says to the mrs. 5 minutes later it is set to chinese language and i cannot get it back to english .Mrs is going mad .Any help would be great cheers.Jessdale
  6. I would say it is the other way around.A farmer friend had a young sterk escape into a housing estate and then it ran down towards the motorway.The police came and the marksman shot it close to the motorway embankment.It had been out,running free, for maybe 1 and a half hours.My mate had it butcherd and filled his freezer with it.Every single piece of it was like boot leather and almost unedible.The butcher warned him of it because the animal was so stressed before it was killed.
  7. If it is a black tie dinner suit the 3 button,or single breasted,is always worn open never buttoned up.That is why they are made slim fitting.
  8. If the gun is on the bed with you baldie,is the wife in the gun box :11: :11:
  9. My mate culls roughly 300 fallow per season on an estate run by either the forestry commision or national trust,i cant remember which one it is.He gets them ready for the game dealer who picks them up every couple of days.The money is paid directly to the trust/commision and it works out at roughly £25-£30 per fallow.
  10. i could only shoot a fox when it as been dug to
  11. i would take her dish up once she has finnished feeding,that way you know when and how much she is eating.If you leave some food in the dish for her you will not know how much she is eating.My pup would eat a horse,like he is doing now :11:

    Sloes

    it was a bad year for them round our way last year but this year they are hung like grapes
  13. Another great post LEE .I totaly agree with you about not having to feed veg with the RMB diet.My mate has 57 couple of hounds in kennels and he never feeds kiwi fruit or pak-choi :11: .Here is a picture of my 11 week old pat pup eating his RMB.jessdale
  14. Good idea mate,hope it goes well
  15. the three peaks of yorkshire are pen-y-gent,wernside and ingleborough.It seems a long walk but it will be no problem for your dog mate.
  16. good post pumper dog but all the things you mention ie temperament,nose etc etc the dog will have if its already worked a few seasons.A dog that cannot get due to size will not have a few seasons of digging work under it`s belt!.If one is breeding for earth work a bit of research will not go amiss,mating a good bitch to a good dog does not always produce good pups.I know you cannot guarantee that a pup will enter, but if the dog and bitch come from several generations that have proven themselves over many seasons,then you have a far greater chance of sucess than if bred off "one off parents".I
  17. I live in a 3 bed semi ex-council house.I work 12 hr shifts in a steel works.I go hunting with hounds 3 days a week.Snob me i don`t think so :11:
  18. found a red pvc gimp mask a couple of years ago,with metal zips over the eyes and mouth holes .My mate put it on for the rest of walk out with the dogs.Got some right looks from some car drivers :11: .Same mate got has just been put in a mental hospital for the rest of his life
  19. Does any know who is running the terrier show at the midland?,any contact details?.Thanks
  20. Cracking pup that mate.If it turns out as good as its sire you wont go far wrong .Thank god it`s only 12" because as you know only too well "size really does matter"!!!!!!! :11: .
  21. i wouldn`t bother putting any "removable" loops or d-rings on them to prevent snagging mate.The only collar someone would use on a loose dog is a locator collar in case the dog went to ground.Just make them as strong as you can because some of those terriers can be a bit fiesty :11:
  22. I take the back legs off by laying it on it`s back and cutting through the legs where they join the body.I pop the ball joint and cut straight through to take the leg off.I then turn it over and ,with a sharp knife,run the blade down each side of the spine from front to back.As you cut down the spine you will come to the rib cage,follow this with the knife down the ribs untill you are left with the fillet and the belly flesh in one piece.I then roll this up,like a sausage, and then cut it into slices and fry them off.
  23. Carling :sick: when we were young it was just know as "black label".Tasted like water then still does now.
  24. the pulse dvd is excellent .The light show they put on is amazing.I saw rodger waters and nick mason do "wish you were here" and "comfortably numb" at the CA concert in may.They were good but i prefer gilmour to be honest.
  25. The more people see of this type of thing the better in my eyes.It will make them realise that going to a small producer/good farm shop for meat instead of the supermarket will improve the lives of the livestock involved.I have seen with my own eyes,many times,intensive and non-intensive farming of livestock and i know which i would rather feed to my kids .I have met 2 of the girls on the program last night,they are farmers daughters and VERY PRO hunting and one is the granddaughter of a very big race horse trainer
