Bad Foot Injury, Flesh Wound Down To Bone
jeemes replied to FERRETBOY's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
If you have a good vet I agree,but it depends,some of these pet vets will soon run it up..Best to ask for cost first.. -

Ibuprofen(small dose) or calpol for pain Keep it clean with saltwater and bathe with epsom salts as much as you can throughout the day.. Get some anti biotic if you can,but dont panic.. If you havnt got the money for vets then you havnt got it. Wounds like that can be healed open with time. It will heal a lot quicker with epsom salts..It draws the red blood cells to the surface where they are needed.. -
What are the other mags called again? I forget Its a one horse race.

All these pups so far look belters.

They are contributing with money. Why should we have to write it aswell. that's a choice only oneself can make but to then call those that do contribute their time for no financial gain is a little crass I didnt call anyone. never said you, i said in my previous post "so rather than the same old posts as some in this thread, do something other than moan about those who do take the trouble to contribute their time and energy to keep the magazine going" Yes Ive read some of your articles,not bad. Trust me if i can manage it then you or anybody else can I think

Daytime is fun mooching...after dark is for proper hunting..I like both.

well said.

Has the lad said he was looking for some reassurance,if he got that through good advice then he has learned something..It makes a change to hear someone putting there hands up and saying they need advice,and an even bigger change for them to get good advice instead of the usual sarcasm from folks needing to bolster there own egos. Then we both read the post in different ways Jeemes. As for my ego, i never realised i had one on here in the first place! I only read what he said,and he said he was looking for reassurance.

You should be aware of where a dogs kidneys are aswell when you grab round the waste.

If its not costing you too much I would take a chance on it if you fancy it mate. You never see the poor b*****ds off the lead when they are out with there pet owners.My guess is thats because they go off hunting. My mate had a Beagle from show stock that hunted like mad. Im not saying it would have the fine tuned nose of a well bred Beagle to work Hare scent out,but then thats not what you want it for is it.

People tend to cross Bull into stuff that is lacking something in the first place. They think the Bull blood will compensate for whats missing. Personally I wouldnt want to contaminate my Bull/Greyhound blood with the other stuff. the only reason I put another breed to bullx is to get better wind (stamina) a saluki or coursing type dog . I suppose it what your doing with your bullx , if its on a lead most night until it sees its quarry ok , but if its have a lot of runs in a night , bullx with the above breeds is what needed for lot of running If there is plenty of bull in t

microchipped aswell

Whats the guy int pub thing all about mate?

Anything that makes a dog run and breath heavy will naturally improve wind.. Chasing a lure on a flirt pole can intensify the sprint in a tight circle and 10 mins will equate to a two hour walk..It does not replace walking and being out it just compliments it..

if you look carefully in the reflection of the TV its possible to see you knocking one out mate

a flirt pole is better imo. Start them young chasing rag and move onto leather. You can put a lot of wind into a dog in a short time. Watch you dont catch the dog with the pole and put him off. The sprint chasing of it is what exercises the lungs and heart. Build up steady.

A lot of lurchers dont take naturally to attacking Foxes. When it was legal it was best to let a youngster see an experienced dog tackling a fox and letting the youngster join in the worry once the older dog had quickly despatched it. Bull x Greyhounds or pure Greyhounds or Whippet x terriers were best..

Its this time of year aswell,when only the smarter ones are left. Go out with a bit of wind and rain to cover noise.

All Frank Sheardowns books are good or if you want some comedy aswell try DB Plummer,hes good..I find some books including Doherty and Plummer a bit braggy,but they are good for a story I suppose.
