    just had my 1st fox in the home made trap, the farmer called me about 10 days ago to see if i could set my trap as his chickens have been killed so i set it up with the dead carcasses it left behind and within a week its been caught and despatched the farmer happy ,im happy as now i know it works as its a homemade trap as my old one was pinched

    certainly not a anti and defo not a dick head but pics like this do attract the antis etc i dont know why you broadcast it with pics put the dog on a different angle to show its class you'll only end up with bother somewhere down the line

    my mate had a 3/4 grey 1/4 sal and its the best dog ive seen run hares on moor or grass and was a demon on foxes/deer all pre ban as it was about 15 yrs ago ,he bred off it and keep one pup which he later sold so never saw it run ,then he sold the bitch when in season and got alot of money for it ,and the stupid lad ran it and smashed its legs up 1st night he had it out ,what a waste and put it down,he also had a 3/4 sal 1/4 grey bought it as a day time dog as this was very different, very sluggish and not at all nimble in the turn so two different types and two different styles

    yes its the mounts as they were flush with rifles base plates and after a few shots you could see it had moved ,it was vibrating as the scopes was only held by one mounting as it slid that far forward before i realised some thing was wrong ,thanks for the replies lads
  15. gibbo1973
    i am no way biased because this is my first x dh/gh------ its just that the lads who i got in touch with put me onto good stock, some may think trev will be breeding too many i think thats rubbish as he says 7 from 10 yrs its because its supply and demand everyone would do the same if you've 7 people for pups why not breed if youve good sound stock ?how many has he gave away or culled ?same as bill and other deerhound x breeders . dave platt,bill,even hancock(collie) some one must want a pup i know you dont have to be big breeders or "old ,ha ha bill " to know your business but when you me

  19. gibbo1973
    ok thanks think his dogs will be 6 -8 not sure like think trev tried to get along on this web site but like yourself and the rest who bring decent topics and a little to a site just get slated so they tend not to comment as much if at all end of day you may as well just personally e mail them on your topics and info and keep it to people who you can rely and trust and keep in touch on a regular basis

    hi bill , just a quick one are nt the dogs and bitches from your original stock he has now? but the pups what are bred now with be 1/2 doxhope or not ?
  21. gibbo1973
    just look at the greyhound data base and top honcho he raced only 3 times and sired over 10,000 pups (they would nt use him on his race form would they ,he would of been on the heap with rest of them ) so i agree if its got the genes and confrontation of a good dog used for bitches then why not ? other breeders not just trev will use young dogs if it suites their breeding pattern and improves their quality of stock

    when this 1st started he was asked for a pure deerhound ,yes we all know that the ban may have hindered the working dog a little but the lines of which he wants off trev is 2nd to non look what he has in possession(all doxhope stuff ,BILL has lived, breathed, ran and bred this line for years and years ) give credit where credits due as half of you wankers have nt got a clue whats been put into this lineage aand its your fault that the dog has FAILED, ive asked bill and trev about the 1st x and bill agrees they may not be the best lurcher in the world and some do need time but he has raced t
