  1. Done the same Socks, one huge fecking creche.. Worked a treat! One thing i did do though was to keep my hob's cages well clear.
  2. Simply a tag used to sell.... Your dog should be what you want it to be... No more, no less... Some may want a jack of all trades, some may want a master of one (or two!).... Really don't matter, so long as your happy with it... But if you buy that selling bullshit and your dog is NOT what you either want, nor expect it to be, then you've either made a piss poor decision in your type of lurcher, or your a piss poor hunter. No more, no less...
  3. I'd go for Beddy cross MM, maybe the sire of those pups and looking at that terrier, it looks of early Scotty/Sky type, so both were possibly obtained in the North East border areas. Though i could be well off the mark...

  5. Which is why its my second Opinel, the first one and me, parted company, sharpish...! ?
  6. I carried and used the old pocket knife my Dad gave me for years but its too precious to ever loose now, so i've been using Opinel for about 10 years. This is my second one.
  7. Fantastic stuff Katch, well played and great judgment, which is something many dont have... ? As for that advert, i've seen them peddling feckers on there a few times with that same stud but have no idea who they are. They know how to write-up a litter and i've no doubt they'll sell like hot cakes.
  8. Provided an unwanted youngster is injury free, then you should be able to mould it into what you want it to do. Most will relish the fact that someone is providing stimulus and tune in really fast. A recent example is the young couple who moved in next door to me. She keeps a couple of horses and wanted a lurcher as a pet and to accompany her on hacks. Off they went to the local rescue center and came back with a fine young broken coated bitch, which i thought may have a drop of Saluki in its make up. It came with the name Peanut and it stuck. The deal was the obligatory 'get her spa
  9. Like it Ken and as FDR said, it'll look better again with its edge. Were you aiming to put those four little 'boomerang' shapes on the blade?
  10. I'd also agree and was very much prepared to let things run as i suspected some of you boys were enjoying it BUT i don't like disrespect, particulary when someone has taken the time to write an informative post, offering personal expierience. Nope, that was a game changer for me and so he went... I have no idea who the kid was, nor do i care, this forum is about our game and good debate to do with it. It is certainly not my style to remove a member and i can take a bit of falling out, name calling and things getting heated but that post made my mind up.
  11. Gentlemen, the Return will not be answering any of your posts for the foreseeable future.
  12. Like it also Ken, handy and workman like ?
  13. Not the right reply to that post....!
  14. Hey, no disrespect Performance but you go for what you like in your country. You asked for opinion and you got it. Thing is you know your dog, what suits you and you should do what you feel right. I wish you all the best in your quest. Though just one thought... Over here we try, through difficult government legislation to produce decent bull blooded lurchers, i'd go as far as to say they are more popular here than anywhere else. APBT have been a banned breed for many years now and the AB (sports preformance included) are not and there are may about. So why do lurcher breeders
  15. Though we have the same attitude of keep calm and carry on FD, I'd feck em if their was a ban too BUT do believe the floodgates are being opened and things are gonna get a damn sight worse for field sports in general but there is also a lot of scare mongering and misinformation flying round right now. No matter what we profess that we will be doing in ten years time, we ALL should be lobbying the governing bodies about what they are doing to sort this fecking mess out..! The anti's have got a messiah in Packham and the BBC and rag newspapers are giving him a platform to spout his shi
  16. And the best the BASC does is 'demand' Natural England get a grip....!!! ?
  17. Nothing or no one gives em the right Terry but they do it anyway and are so much better at it than us... We are being slowly swamped by their opinion, all over the media and its swaying the general public. Yet we sit and do almost nothing to counter that opinion. Have a read through the posts on Averys blog to prove just that. We are all to intoxicated with lurcher crosses, rifle scopes, terrier breeding and shotgun bores, to turn our attention to any sort of defence, never mind attack..!!!
  18. Pissing in the wind or not, i'd betcha that if that blog was running the other way, there'd be fecking anti's gobbing off all over it AND its that difference thats gaining them ground...

    Excellent mate, i love visiting places and finding little gems like this... ?
  20. Sports Performance AB x Greyhound, a show stopper for sure... All tough on a lead towards smaller dogs but wouldn't pull a 5kg fox. I believe none of the litter made the grade on quarry that bites back either. I'd go for one of those 'scratch dogs' every day before any type of AB. Handsome is as handsome does....!
