We done a very similar thing years back with my mates old dog Jet, we took him over Altcar for a last hare. He was about 14 and well past his coursing days. My mate figured the run will either kill him or he would ensure he went after doing what he loved.Well old Jet was slipped and caught the bloody hare on the straight...! We were so gobsmacked, my mate never had the heart to do anymore than take him back home for a good feed... Funny as feck looking back! What a lucky dog lol ......That old bugger deserved it's spec on the couchYep, it got one too, though my mate did try one other thing to

That's right mate, started in 1966, the year before i was born, yet in the late 70's when i was a mad keen kid, i knew who they were and wanted to join... How many kids know that today?? This year 'should' have been a massive year for the club, every on line hunting dog site should know about it through massive promotion...

That'll be 'Bosun' Ziggy...

I believe all our 'governing bodies' (is that the right wording?) Need a huge promotional drive for the people who could/should be joining them. To me they've almost skipped two generations of hunters.. People who will join, pay subs, help, enhance and promote. The F&MWTC is such a prestigious club with a fantastic ethic, aim and long history (Cyril Tyson was a founder member FFS!!) Every man who puts a terrier to ground should be a member, no if's, but's or maybe's....

Has Anybody Taken A Uk Dog Down Under To Hunt?
Bosun11 replied to air gun ant's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Stabs took his two lurchers down under and hunted them with success i believe. I've seen some cracking photos of his dogs in some bizzare terrain hunting different quarry. He pops into here every so often and if he does, i'm sure he'll put a decent post up about his own dogs adapting to that enviroment etc. -
Dai, I'll drop you a pm tomorrow and take another lamp off you for my mate. Though i 'm not sure which one mine is..?

They are smart as feck Ken, if they handle and work as good as they look then they are a fantastic investment. 'I'm well jel'.

A mate of mine has asked me to post this, he is trying to contact a bloke that he knows as 'John Boy' from (he thinks) Keighley, West Yorks regarding his bushing dogs. If anyone who knows him could drop me a pm that would be appreciated. Thanks.

I think Wolfys post is to champion our working dogs and not the other way round.
