  1. There are lots of good tasting wild mushrooms which I can't find in shops so I forage for them while having a mooch with the dogs, but if I am ever in doubt I leave them. There are plenty of signs to tell the difference between toxic and non toxic. Best going with someone who has a vast knowledge of them. Sad news that.
  2. Great job pal you have worked wonders on the dog, she looks a different dog happy and full of life top man you should be proud Atb dmr
  3. What do these thieving scum bags get out of taking other peoples pride and joy. Nothing but scum bags. Just because they can't be arsed to train or buy thier own. Hope you get them back pal.
  4. Might just be me been stupid but what quarry was the dogs running longs ears? What were they like on other quarry ban, pre ban era? Atb dmr
  5. Great pics. That's what I love about this time of year.
  6. Just wondering how the polecat Jill is going on? Atb DMR
  7. I have one at the min only 8 months old. Obedience training do very well, sit stay, down jump etc can't fault him. But can't get him to retrive 100% yet but am keeping at it so hopefully fingers crossed. Not to see the speed on him yet he has caught rabbits from cover. Hopefully should excel on the lamp come september. Sire was saluki bull whippet x grey whippet Dam was saluki grey x whippet
  8. A lurcher, sounds like it would suit you. Beddy x whippet maybe? Atb dmr
  9. Just what i was thinking. By the sounds of it pets I hope. Why pets? Ive found any ferret can work if you put the time into them im wanting to breed to replace my 1 that i lent out and dindnt get back. And ive bred ferrets before so i know how many kits they can have and what to do just to save people saying not to bother Maybe so but a lot of crap can be bred aswell. Better to breed worker to worker. I wouldn't take the chance of breeding anything into my stock just for sake of colour. But thats just my view. Your ferrets your decision. Hope everything goes how you want it to.
  10. Just what i was thinking. By the sounds of it pets I hope.
  11. And me please Thanks
  12. You got pm pal forgot to put my number if intrested.
  13. Working Jill to a good home. Reason why I am getting rid is she is fighting with all my other jills and drawing blood on them. She is in season so will need bringing out. She has never had a litter and is 3 years old. She is supposed to be a 3/4 eu polecat but weather she is I don't for sure. When I got her you couldn't pick her up for biting but now she is tame as any pet ferret as my 5 year old boy holds her with no probs. Dont want her to go to just anyone only a good home will do. She has been worked for 2 seasons with me and I have only had 2 digs with her and they we
  14. I wouldn't put a hob in with any ferret this time of year all they want to do is mate and it will just make a mess of your Jill. All my Hobs are separated this time of year because all they do is try and mate each other. They will be ok once the breeding season has finished.
  15. It is legal to catch rabbits and rats with dogs. Whippets great rabbiting dogs but a lurcher man my self.
  16. Had this with my lurcher pup after walks would run round scratching his paws. I think the problem is soft pads as he doesn't do it anymore. A whippet a friend had also did it but stopped when got a bit older. Nothing to worry about but check his paws jst to make sure nothing stuck in them
  17. Ya a credit to the lurcher world j.dog. Wish you the best of luck with her.
  18. Wouldnt bother with a Irish wolfhound the working types died out many years ago. The ones you see now are made up of deerhound, great dane and god knows what else. Deerhound or deerhound lurcher would be best choice for working. Its your choice though. I'd just do a lot of research into the breed before commiting to one.
  19. Scum bags. Had a few stolen a couple of years back. Lurcher stolen at Xmas which I got back. It's a joke when you cant even keep a couple of ferrets without some low life taking them.
  20. Ffs get the RSPCA round this cnuts house he needs sorting out. Can't leave dogs in that state. I no the RSPCA are anti hunting but he needs sorting out. Either that it a good slap.
  21. Seems a pointless cross to me a bull x whippet. A whippet is good enough for rabbit work if you want a bull cross use a greyhound x bull with that you got speed and plenty of gameness plus size. Leave the whippets to do what they are good at rabbits and the odd long ear.
  22. Al try a differnt collar see what happens if not al give deben a ring. Thanks for the help pal
  23. I have a mk2 ferret finder 20ft. Had it 2 years now and never had a problem until now it has just started to give false readings. I have changed the batterys but made no difference. Just wondered if anyones had the same problem or if anyone knows how to get them sorted out. Thanks
