I’m not bitter I only come on this site for a laugh & it’s too easy to touch on your kennel blindness
oh ime far from kennel blind young man, and I have run all over with and without permission, with a good selection of lads and dogs, but what I like suits me, the coursing world is full of dirty twisting fuks and good lads alike, and is no place for naïve impressionable souls I am afraid.

They've been in the lurcher scene for years , probably before a lot of types , but before the days of the internet how were people going to hear about them ?
Wheatens were used as a strong dog and they were even used as fighting dogs throughout Ireland .
what is the history of them development etc.

Million miles from a know it all mate things like rabbit dogs & fox dogs I know next to f**k all about, I just got my own views on how things should be done when it comes to breeding litters & distributing pups, too many people see breeding lurchers as a thing you need to do, or just do cause you’re bored and fancy a litter, a lot of exaggerations about quality of parents as well which is shit for the lads that get stung with the offspring & for the dogs that inevitably get passed about, it’s a forum the whole point is to share opinions if we all agreed on everything nobody would come on here
did you get screwed over by a bullshiting coursing peddler by any chance?

You've got me wrong mate I'm not after a argument , I like both too but never raced them just worked them , we all know what most call a non ped whippet is more superior in speed but some ped whippets have more wind, my opinion is if it's got any other breed in the mix it's not a whippet to me.
all dog breeds are a combination of breeds to start with, but as these were the product of working men striving to create a faster sporting dog from what was at hand, we should applaud them, but further additions surely make them something less, in my eyes anyway. I agree about the wind thing, I always think whippet has more than a greyhound.

why has this thread turned into a hate coursing men thread from a rabbit dog thread, lol, the biggest problem with getting a good coursing dog is the brown hare is harder to catch consistently than people think, so the failure rate will always be high, regardless of breeding.

May aswell lamp them with that attitude young man
that gets done as well and photose in the morning lol, with regards to rabbiting dogs if that's what they are bred for say so in your selling speal, nothing wrong with that, it seems these days if a dog cant or wont kill a fox its somehow inferior , even when clearly not bred for such tasks.

Law of averages there’ll be shite in every litter no matter how good parents are, I remember hearing about Lucas x crow, 3 full litters of top hare killers, then saw one getting dragged about in November, but anyone that says that gets jumped on by the groupies, same with all the big name money makers.
you get that all the time in the coursing job, talking dogs up, how good they are in cover, cos they cant kill a gooden on the seed, most dogs on the dvds get dragged all over then kill in the dyke, ffs, top class.

when I was a kid there were lots of mongrels and they would all work pretty much, and were free mostly, sweep was 10 bob and caught hundreds of rabbits far more than the runners.
