Sounds like your wanting similar to what I'd want! Mine would mainly be for mooching ferreting and lamping! I like a racey sharp dog so
Don't want anything heavy put in hence why if
There was abit of Wheaton in hopefully I'd be able to draw a rough or Broken coated pup from
The litter!

Oh and I was thinking about going down the lines of looking for a something similar bred with either Wheaton or bedlinton in the mix! So a sire about 25" sal/whip/grey/Wheaton! Put to my bitch which is sal/whip/grey! If I thought this breeding would
Still suit at the time!

This could be an interesting thread I've got a bitch same breeding! IF she proves her self which I'm fairly sure she will I will be looking to do something similar! Add coat she has very good feet great speed etc dont entirely know about wind yet really but I will find that out over next few seasons! Coat is something I really want to improve on her and possibly add an little in hieght on the pup I kept Back! Bull doesn't really do it for me though so would be interested in what people
Opinions are

All depends what you want it to do! What is the breeding of the bitch?? And what faults your wanting to try and get rid of! No matter how good the bitch you can always improve!
-
I reckon a Plummer would be better suited for your needs pal

There is cubs up Scotland fella a mate of mine had to dig a litter week or so ago at a couple of weeks old

i know of one such lad regulalry buys dogs and gets rid of them! lost count of the number of phone calls off him saying do you know any one for such and such dog its got a week if not im shooting it! i also know that a few of them have gone on to make very good dogs taking all legal quarry and pre ban ive no doubt they would have made good deer and fox dogs just not with him!
his problem is that if he gets a pup then till its ready to run it lives in its kennel and let out into the paddock for literally 5 mins in a morning
Anything that makes it any older he doesnt put the time in getting them fit so when they dont perform then they get labelled shit dogs!
Really frustrating........ oh and he thinks hes the mutts nuts in the terrier and lurcher world lol he got rid of his terrier pup cos itcame away on its 6th dig in 2 days when was abit bust up! again he gave it away someone got himsorted and hes doing his job in good style-

There's a fella nr me with a very similar stamp of dog! Took some keeping hold of when he wanted to be on! a machine he was! Dragged me across a field on my belly! As he didn't give me chance to get lead off lol
-
Say it time and time again but cracking dogs fella! The big lads fair impressive! Would have been a useful dog preban! What he like pace wise?

No fab they are just ones that have cropped up I front of her out walking! Not worked her as such! Although got home late so took her for a walk with lamp as street light haven't been invented round here yet and she got one in the lamp on way back! That's her 1st! She had that run and came home!
-
Haha Paulus that's replys made my day ill remember that one

She will be about 7 and a half months buster!
Cheers
-
Yes haha :-)
-
Cheers guys! Yep fingers xed those bunnys need to watch their backs
-
Thanks Shaun! She's keen alright!
-
I am! She's my first lurcher and although had working dogs all my life she is by far the hardest I've had to train but when it comes together she's good

Really pleased with pip today! I took her for her walk this after noon as we were walking down a field side I noticed a bunny jump up about 50/60 yards in front! I didn't even think she had seen it but she set off like a bat out of hell getting between the rabbit and the hedge! The coney the ran down into a dip and back out the other side! Problem was coming out the other side was a big drift rabbit ran on top of snow and pip was sinking! I didn't think for a second she would make the ground back up as it was heading for a thick gorse gulley!
As I wandered down the field waiting for her return I heard a squealing! I thought she had got tangled in wire or something so set off running ! Just for her to come round the corner with a live rabbit in her mouth!
I don't know whether or not she caught it in the cover or turned it back into the field I couldn't see who cares she bagged it!
Can't believe how she's coming on a little pic from when we got back
Thanks for reading :-D
