  1. So I went for a pint with my dad last night and he said that when he was racing g'hounds they used to say that when breeding a litter you got the physical attributes from the dog and mentallity from the bitch! Now this may stand some truth with a single breed but he asked me if it would come into play in lurcher breeding! So do you think this has any truth to it or not?
  2. It's a bad state of affairs when there is missing kids and they are wasting their time on a few lads that are just rabbiting!
  3. Call 999 for coursing what a joke! Murder, break Ins child, abduction, these are emergencys not coursing! Grrrrr
  4. That's not what they were bred to do when ye breed originated! Dog for a job and as a breed it doesn't have one anymore not over here anyway
  5. Think you will be struggling for anything decent! My mates just ordered a pup from south Wales as nothing else closer any good! With the problems that seem to be bred into this breed I think it's worth travelling and getting the best dogs you can get!
  6. This bitch doesn't look so big at all slips seems she did the job though!
  7. Feckingg hell iceman burning cars and shooting dogs sounds mad! Its stupid enough sport for everyone! Duno why people can't just get on and work with each other tbh
  8. As the saying goes its our end of the lead that makes or breaks a dog! I'm sure u will get the best out of him!
  9. Reasons like this is that there is only me and a mate we share all our permission and go together and farmers are always told that there will only ever be us too and anyone else is nothing to do with us! Odd occasion a mates been over I've been and introduced to farmer but again very few people get invited on! Have enough problems with useless terrier lads that are as blatant about what they are doing and leave earths open pipes smashed and all the rest of it! Drives me insane
  10. Wonder if they try and make double sure that when they strike it counts because they find it too hard to gain any lost ground?
  11. My dad did say he would have struggled if it got to a long run but he got a nak of turning and striking!
  12. Reasonable numbers! Ye I get that you will get smaller dogs that can pick em up well! My dad was showing me pictures of a whippet grey that he had about 20" that did hares regularly he said it got them because it figured out how to get them to turn and then snapped em as he cut them off rather than being a speed demon! But I thought that would be pretty small for a decent hare dog!
  13. So Pre ban when we could go out and run hares How big did pure hare dogs tend to be? is there an ideal height you would have gone for? I'm not talking ones that took one here and there I meen dogs that when you slipped them week in week out you were coming back with good numbers! What would be the smallest that you think a dog could be, And come back with good numbers? Atb
  14. Fecking x boxes want smashing bloody things they have a lot to answe for Glad you had a gd night gotta start em young
