  1. Enjoyed reading that, best of luck for the future.
  2. I'm also interested Foxpack, could you drop me a pm with the same answers please. Thanks.
  3. About 10 years back i missed out on a litter of GWHP to a coursing dog. Very handy dogs on all gear i believe.
  4. Never really had permo, spent most of my life hiding from plod on dark nights. Been stopped by plod at night and told 'I can lamp, just let em know i'm coming on'... I never did, never trusted em BUT i've always thought back, maybe they'd just rather know and leave me to get on with it. I know this much, its permo you got, good local permo. And you've been asked yo rung em. I'd be on the phone to them feckers 5 days a week to 'let em know'.. They'd probably think your some jobsworth freak and soon get tired of that and probably give you a wide berth...
  5. Very nice, i'll be after the same soon.
  6. Hi Rebecca and welcome, them 'golden tickets' are much prized on here, they dont come easy but dont worry about them now. Just hang around and contribute. Enjoy your stay.
  7. Spartacus was out of Parks bitch to a Gould dog I think Time dims memory but did Gouldy ever put that in his avertisments for the dog. If he did, i really can't remember...? Spartacus was primarily bred for stud and was heavily advertised as such. I don't know what was in advert mate, but link below has bit more info and Lahosh from memory was usually bang on.........post #24 on this old thread http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/12518-gould-lines/?p=121713 Yes mate, i'd take that as on the money, well played for remembering and finding it. Later he confirms what i knew about
  8. Last shout before it goes the tip..?

  10. Surely, with all the information on game dogs, you could see from the matches which bred type is the better. I'd have my money on line bred dogs...
  11. As i said at the begining of the thred, the EBT is a creation for the show bench, no if's but's or maybe's. In comparison to a game bred bulldog the breed is almost a none starter BUT when used in the mix with either lurchers or working terriers the resulting progeny are, in the main, very good..! And, they are just about the most striking breed there is, so if someone fancys sommat different and they do their homework, then why not. You could do a lot worse... Could you?
  12. 2015-10-31 12.07.52.jpg this is my young terrier i think she has a look of yours bosun
  13. Now that really is 'THE' question Bryan, the one i was hoping we'd get to...I have no idea but i'd love to find out.. I haven't heard of any cowan blood around for years, my old man really rated them as hard dogs and some of his best dogs came straight out of cowans yard, only problem was they would kill anything that moved I know AG brought some good Cowan blood with him when he came to hunt the Waterford foxhounds in the late 80's and MF carried on with that blood, but it's well diluted by now. Bryan, i've just been googling John Cowan and a couple of old archived THL threds exist. John
  14. Yep, some bloody good dogmen from that town snd surrounding areas.
  15. If its genuinly from his line then, in my expierience, that would be the usual...
  16. Now that really is 'THE' question Bryan, the one i was hoping we'd get to... I have no idea but i'd love to find out..
  17. J.P is still alive and well, so i'm sure he still keeps the odd terrier about the place, his lines are still about too.
  18. If thats how his line goes (?) Then yes KS. Early/mid 80's. What i've wrote is what i know.
  19. This may sound a bit daft but that dog i had and his parents before him (i knew them well) and other 'rock dogs' i've known of, ALL where born climbers. Terriers that would climb and perch rather than stay on terra-firma. I hope this makes sense but that type of dog would/could not stand on the ground and look up, they had to climb and find out. Squirrles in trees (foxes in trees!!), garden walls and fences, chair backs and arms in the house, back of car seats in moving cars... They just had to be up and perched. The owner of the brother to Todd made the mistake of chaining him to the kennel
  20. But enough of this on here...
