For me it was my bull greyhound and bull grey x dog and bitch always made something happen and got the job done the male was fast but shit at turning could hunt up kill everything and mark to ground and regularly catch in heavy cover his half sister was a faster killer but not as hard yet still single handed very committed and bar none the best hunting up marking dog I've seen and many lads have seen both work day and night they both had faults but perfect for me at that time and suited my style of hunting looking back I'd have them both back but don't think I,d be able to put enough in front

If for example you had a good black bull x the best you'd had and lined him over a red bitch on the intention of keeping a pup out of him and there was only one black pup in the litter , surely that's the one getting picked Ive seen bull xs put over rough coated runners and all the smooth coated ones threw a lot harder dogs than the rough/broken coated ones , seen that happen a few times from the same dam and sire ,I've got a pup here now with a lot of white blazes over it and just know the claret will show

Preventing Poaching In The Uk
singles replied to CH-SUK's topic in Gamekeeping, Conservation & Shoot Management
Aye....that's bollockswhy?why Aye....that's bollocks Why?Because they do own it....whether you like it or not. I've no problem with poaching wild game.....different story when it comes to pheasants though that someone has worked hard to rear and some c**t comes along and thinks there easy pickings. exsactly...a keeper is worth one thing....his birds.... the second he falls below standard with his birds he WILL be in the firing line..what if he has wife and bairns? what happens if your curs running thru a wood causes the birds to desert it? causing a drive to fail? causing percentages to fal -

What Defines A True Terrier Man
singles replied to Shoebootie's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
Well said ,lonespade , tree hands , just to add , I think he must be time served , not a one hit wonder having a few decent dogs doesn't make anyone an expert , its keeping going after the good dogs sorting through the shit , and that only comes with time -

It is amazing how many people can find fault with another mans dog and not their own , I've met too many experts giving it the I've had dogs for 40 years blah blah and when you look in their kennels the dog didn't deserve the kennel space I've lost some very good dogs some years ago and have spent the last 7 years trying to replace them which I havent managed to yet you'll know for sure what the grade is when you'd give anything to have them back !

A dog might fail at certain tasks but be perfect at others and earn its crust that way eg a runner with a bad injury might never get back to where they were but could flatten cover , mark to ground etc , ....... What happens if you only had space for 1 dog , your runner,s took a bad knock she won't recover from and your land owner wants vermin removing , your loyalty won't keep your permission and won't get you out on them dark windy nights , and won't put food on the table !!!

she,s 17/18 in tts , and will flatten cover , I've always managed to not have a bushing dog ,and have had some very good hunting up lurchers that put their fair share away by for the last 3 seasons my mates had a couple of beagle spaniels that did and still do a very good job but me always going against the grain said did,nt need 1 , then when I lost my older lurcher last year I also lost my busher in him and decided its time!!!was looking for 3 quarter springer 1 quarter beagle and ended up with my bitch , her dam is beagle x harrier sire is beagle x springer x beagle Russell ,

I've got a young bitch here , she,s 3/4 beagle harrier 1/4 springer Russell .I've put a lot of time into her , she,s got very good recall very obedient and hunts up well she,s only 12 months old BUT ....... she will follow a scent zigzagging in and out of hedges ditches out into the field wherever the scent goes but she,s heavily relying (spelling) on her nose and not using her head , which may come in time I have seen her walk straight past cover scenting the ground only to come full circle to the back of cover and then enter to knock something out , also when in dense woodland and on a

I like the look of them bull x cockers but I,d wait at least another full hunting season at least to decide what you,ve got and where your going with them .
