Why makes a lurcher pick their runs by the hedge?
terryd replied to springfield's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
That is true I find this with my present one and its that attitude that puts things in the bag. The rabbit might be in C but he will go through round or over incase it tries to go to D lol. Just applying that bit of pressure seems to make them some times make the wrong move too -
You could check out the gwp. Never had one my self but I know a friend who rated them very highly and able to do what ever was thrown at them. But he did say they were a bit different to train
-
Yes it can. Paul Sullivan on fb does them. Or do it your self if you can be fussed but i think his cheap enough and nice new collar fitted
-
Bought all his books in my teens very inspiring back then. Looking at his videos now though he really does seem a daft sod

It is sad plain and simple. I have lived around this village for nearly 40 years and back then you could spend a day ferreting one hedge row. You could walk half a mile in any direction and find rabbits. Now we have huge areas of nothing. Even the last 4 years they have taken yet another dive with farms where we could lamp 3 or 4 with ease nothing. Walked 6 fields tonight after work and nothing. Just a great shame

Great years them 80's Keith lol. My van got reported by some woods once. Copper came around were you after badgers. Nope, ok thank you bye. Great days
-
This is it we can only conduct our selves as we see fit. MY daughter started work in the local and one of the farmers was chatting to her who I have known since a kid. He said I was all ways respectful unlike a lot of hunters. I basically never leave a trace and don't disturb live stock if possible and I give them a cheery wave before I disappear into the woods

Little tess not a bad mannerism about her and a pleasure. Great ferreting and digging dog

I think Nels0n does sheet netting and at a good price
-
next up depending on your bike if your going to stick at it get some marathon plus tyres. Bloody good against punctures. Nothing worse on the way home than getting a puncture lol. Also you find goodies or I did on the dualcarrage found a wheel barrow once that had blown off. stashed it the hedge lol The app is https://www.strava.com/

any thing that been rattled around forestry tracks will have taken a pounding and most of them drive like nutters lol
-
who knows bit of a gamble. If your a dog for life type of fella you might be better off with some thing breed for the job. On the other hand it could be a whirling dervish
-
oh and make sure you got mud guards or at least a rear
-
Yea good luck with that mate trying to keep dry is a challenge I never wear lycra just me normal work clothes and keep spare set of clothes in work or took with me. MIne was about 16 miles round trip up a dual carriageway one way so I had spray off the traffic as well. Best water proofs I found were from the farmers co op some nice green ones and a bit stretchy. They worked really well. I cycled for about 4 years hardly missed a day but got new job now and its too far. The biggest thing is good gloves because by christ the old hands can get cold on an icy morning
-
The thing with this fitness lark is once you get through the fook me this is torture part puffing like a train it can get addictive. Once you get few years in then any injury that holds you back can be a pain because you worry about sliding and losing your hard earned work. When i used to cycle to work if i took the car for some reason I would be in a right grump when i got home and just didn't feel right all most with drawn lol
-
running is best for getting better wind just build up to 3 x 5 miles a week and after year you will notice the diff. You will still puff a bit going up a hill but you will recover in seconds and end up with constant low heart rate

I was with the mrs on holiday once and we were walking along the cliffs and some runners came along and I said look at the daft fookers killing them selves but really I was jealous as I hung off the gate with me 10 chins and more spare tyres than dunlop. So i started running well crawling. Couldn't run for 3 minutes solid to start but two years later ran 50 miles. Ran for few years cycled to work for a couple and now on weights coming upto 50. Torn a groin muscle which is hold me back called a sport hernia which is a pain. Tell you what a healthy diet fooks the old gut lol. I used to be able
-
I passed young chap walking one today luckily we were in the car as my dog is a noob. Also passed a puppy in the summer and it ran straight up and tried to have a go and I had to boot it away
-
Yep very true and if your dog does take off the only way your going to catch the sod is if it pulls the sheep down They think they are helping the dogs but they are not and you can't police it so the people using them badly will still be at it unfortunately
-
what model jay ?
-
ha mine is the same. A load of builders turned up one morning to do the roof. Not one fancied stepping through the gate until the mrs told the dog they were ok. He won't go back wards either and if you did piss him off I doubt he would be letting go in a hurry. Not some thing I like really but the wife feels safe enough with him around
