I'm up between Kendal and Hawes.

Should have replied to you all now!?

Cracking Ferret Kits born early June. Free to good home. Silvers and Polecats, Hobs and Jills. PM for more details. Mother is a great worker.

Just passed up on a springer/ patterdale. Might regret that at this rate ;-). Not sure i've got the energy for a pure spaniel?

Looking for any suggestions on a new dog. We have two cracking Collie/ Deerhound/ Greyhounds but it's become obvious they need a buddy. Run them on the Western Dales so some very steep/ harsh country and often a lot of cover. Both dogs are great but best suited to sight and a bit of clear distance, and animals we can't and shan't hunt. This could all change with a busher/ dog that could get in the thick of it. Just throwing it out there for suggestions? Beddy/ whippet? Pure Beddy? Patterdale? Spaniel? Hancock? Plummer? Anything else? Needs for a lot of mooching, good chunk of ferreting and a b

Tesco's frozen chicken portions are about the same price £3.50 for 2kg, so i'm sure you can get cheaper. Depends what's in the mince really?

Never trust a Vegetarian

How about rabbits? I know they use ferrets as pest control in Dusseldorf Parks.

Anyone any experience of hunting with lurchers in Germany? Is it legal or did Hitler mess that one up too?

Thanks mate. This was one of my fears. Will get it checked out.

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has experience of Epilepsy in Lurchers? Pup is just over a year now and a few months ago developed a head shake. It happened quite frequently for the first week or so but is now much less often. It lasts a minute or so and he's completely with it when it happens and doesn't seem to affect him. Apart from that he's in good form, eats well and has a really good drive. Vet suggests it might be a really mild epilepsy and just to monitor it. Though he doesn't seem so sure. Any advice/ experience would be much appreciated. Cheers

I could catch 30- 40 a night on my permission but if I did it wouldn't last that long!

I've just got a new team of ferrets from last season. At present 1 hob and 3 jills. I've always used a hob that's had a vaesectomy in the past to keep the jills out of season. However our vet tell us they don't do it anymore and they'd all need implants at £81 each which will need to be done again in 1&1/2 years!! Is this just our vets!? I'm sure he's having a laugh. Any advice on best methods etc much appreciated.

Hi Charlie, Thanks for the response. I understand everyone's in the same boat but if you don't ask you don't get. I was spoilt a few years ago as I had the lay of the land in the area I lived. Now starting out again. How do I contact Rake!?
