    blucher your right about the scenting ability i have a beddy grey cross grey whippet andhes shown the seasond spainels a thing a too. i use him when picking up and hes often stand to a mark when the spaniels have moved on. very good cross in my opinion.i think in fairness tho anrabbits its game anything else you need a bit tougher skin. some first cross beddy whippets ive seen have very thin skin still. again only what ive seen im sure others will defe.cheers

    i feed them normal the night then half portion in the mornning before i leave probs round an hour or so before they start working. I also feed them a small amount in the middle of the day probably a handful each, if theyve been working hard on the moors or picking up mabey a bit more, then the extra half portion from the morning with the evening meal with warm water. adam

    was at selby today weather was shite ground not terrible today but will definetly be bad by tomoz.lurchers were really well lop onoked after by the manor lurcher club. tried my pup on the straight line coursing, first time with a muzzle on, he did not like it and he got distracted straight away by all the other barking dogs will try him again at chatsworth when hes a bit more mature.all in all was a good day had the weather been nicer it would have been much better. adam

    thanks for putting my photos up royston. im really enjoying owning him at the mo. and yes i like them to be able to jump aswell, i have lots of fences and gates on the land i hunt, and unfortunatly some are padlocked as the one in the picture is and although some dogs can get through or under some are too big and have no choice but to jump. adam

    really nice that mate, im having real problems with getting mine to retrieve hell do mabey one retrieve in the garden to me than will either run off and sit with the dummy or just run up to it sniff it and cum back, if i call him when hes sat witht the dummy he just leaves it. Hes 8 months old he heels well sits, sits at distance, lies down, jumps etc just can seem to get him to retrieve. I have tried leaving the retrieving for a few weeks at a time to get him interested and to not bore him, nothing, ive tried getting him all hyped up witht the dumy but again he'll most of the time just run

    whats their retrieving like chester, im having a few problems at the mo with my 7 month beddy grey whippet, hell happily pick fur and feather in the garden or off one of my spaniels but wont pick anything thrown for him out in the field, as a youngster he always retrieved his toys etc very well in the garden but got bored very quickly, he is in the house and tends to hord his toys bones etc wondering if this has anything to do with it. sorry if it seems im hijaking your thread just yours are about the same age, andthis is my lurcher always had natural retrieving spaniels. thanks adam

    Hi i have a spare car battery in my garage and an array of wires and fuses. I was wondering if ayone has ever made a lamp from say a car headlight and battery. I know in the past motorcycle batteries were used cus of the weight etc, but at the moment im shooting from a car so carrying it is not a problem just finding it difficult to get to all rabbits as were relying on the headlights. Any information would be grateful thanks. adam
